    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    It really has slowed down, eh? It seems very quiet in terms of updates for July/Aug/Sep applicants, especially Aug and Sep. There seem to be many people just waiting for BGC since almost a couple of months. We are still well within IRCC's processing standards of 12-14 months sure... but the way...

    Is this an AOR? and how long before can check application status?

    It can take a couple days or so before you can actually go ahead and link but please also note - in the 'how many people on this application' part when you try and link/create the account, have you tried entering '2' ? (or 2 + any no. of dependent children) The wording is weird on that one, the...

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    Uh oh. I am Sept 6th applicant and just received my PAL2 yesterday but you've been waiting longer since your last update. See that's the thing! Everyone's timelines are so inconsistent because every case is unique so its hard to tell what's actually up. Like I haven't even received any ghost...

    For outland spousal sponsorship, what exactly is the 2nd Pre-Arrival Letter? Is it the "Prepare for life in Canada" reminder email?

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    Update! Received 2nd Pre-Arrival Letter today (which is basically just an email reminder that we qualify for these services). :D I just found out this is what it looks like and not anything different or newer but can someone legit confirm that this update infact is considered the 2nd PAL...

    Not sure. But it is about time we start seeing the next few updates so hopefully this ghost update was about that and the actual update is coming shortly...

    October 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    A "ghost" update means there is some behind-the-scenes activity on your application, usually a good sign, indicating that a proper update is on its way soon.

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    So... now that the month is over, January 2026 has joined November 2025 as the two months that brought zero updates to my case... absolutely nothing! :rolleyes::p:D Hopefully February it is! <3

    Marriage Certificate Name Format (India) – Impact on Canadian PR Application?

    Everything would be a whole lot easier if the name on the marriage certificate is consistent with the name on the passport as this would minimize providing any additional documents or explanations. In other words, if the name on the passport is first name + maiden name then the certificate can...

    These are "ghost" updates, meaning there is some behind-the-scenes activity on your application, usually a good sign, indicating that a proper update is almost on its way.

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    Maybe go ahead and apply if its absolutely imperative you take that flight in April? We're almost at the end of January. February is a short month. April 20 will creep up soon... and if you are certain, you need to account for the time it takes for the passport journey too (approx. 1-1.5...

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    Wow that's cool. No ghost updates or anything. Last update on trackers: Dec 12, 2025 - its been 7 weeks since (this includes the expected holiday slowdown though). Awaiting BGC - I hear it takes anywhere between 2-8 weeks, so maybe an update is on its way soon.

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    My PA is also hoping to come (move) to Canada in late March subject to spousal PR approval ofcourse... However, we have not made any concrete bookings or plans just yet. We have decided to put the plan to apply for a TRV on hold for maybe another week or two because we do feel a spousal...

    September 2025 - Outland Spousal Sponsorship

    That is spot on! However, there is some hope because all the timelines are kinda scattered at the moment from what I've seen. Some are already done with eligibility and some aren't. Most are waiting for BGCs but then some people have had certain updates weeks before others... while some haven't...
