    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    How long did it take everyone to get their physical card? My partner got ECOPR and completed everything over a month ago now, and his photo has not been approved online so still no card...

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    Sorry to hear that you're experiencing this, Erika! Sounds like a complicated situation and would suggest calling IRCC if you haven't already to get clarification.

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    I think it's a bit of a crapshoot to be honest. It's hard to track how IRCC's systems work (if they have any at all). My partner's application was sent to Mississauga, we never got notification of it moving to another CPC. Then his invitation to the PR portal came from Calgary, and then his...

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    That's true - you are on implied status while your application is being processed, but if you get denied for any reason you will be out of status. We applied for an extension for my partner as insurance. The processing time is so delayed on extensions, he only got it a week before his PR was...

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    We got the PR Portal email last night! We're so excited but it was a surprise as we never had notification of AIP or SA! Is that normal? We had a ghost update on CGKey yesterday along with our pre-arrival email (GCKey still hasn't updated), so if it hadn't been for that we wouldn't have...

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    Exactly the same situation here! I'm assuming it's good news and GCKey just hasn't updated yet?

    Thanks! Sorry, this is maybe a bit dumb but what's the difference between ECAS and GCKey?

    Awesome, congrats! Thank you!

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    My partner received his pre-arrival letter today, but nothing has changed on his gckey. What does this mean exactly? Can we expect things to move forward quickly now?

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    My partner also received his medical request (yesterday) before biometrics - haven't received this yet. I thought biometrics would come first as well. At this point I'm just taking it as it comes!!

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    Just got AOR a few minutes ago! Haven't been able to link to my partner's account yet but so relieved! Fingers crossed for everyone still waiting you will get yours soon!

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    Anyone still waiting for their AOR? Apparently our file was marked as complete mid-May and we still haven't received anything :(

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    This is the same situation me and my partner are in. We can't get any information (after calling multiple times) on why we have not received AOR if it has been marked as complete over a month ago. It's seemingly at the bottom of a pile on someone's office floor...

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    We are still waiting for AOR - application received Dec 4 and nothing since pre-AOR. Super frustrating seeing people getting AOR who submitted in January. It's ridiculous - they are clearly not completed in order and whole system is a complete joke. I go through waves of panic and frustration...

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    My partner had the same experience last week - we still have not received our AOR but the agent told him our application has been marked as complete. Half relieved, half still waiting impatiently! Application was received Dec 3, 2020.

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    Definitely! So frustrating they're not processed in order, but trying to chill :). Good luck!

    *** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***

    Congrats to everyone getting their AOR! Our file was received at Mississauga Dec 4 and still haven't heard anything. Hoping we don't get it returned! Trying to be hopeful but now feeling worried!! :oops:

    Great, thanks for your help!

    Health insurance help for my spouse

    Ahhh, okay. Thanks so much. We didn't know that about needing a job for OHIP. Once he gets his PR, can he can get OHIP without a job? (Hopefully he has a job way before then!!)

    Health insurance help for my spouse

    I am sponsoring my common-law spouse via inland application (with OWP) - he'll be arriving to Ontario as a visitor. Whilst we wait for his OWP to come in, and then the three month waiting period for OHIP, what kind of health insurance should we get him? I would assume normal travel-style...
