    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    It has been 2 months since I received pre-arrival letter, heard nothing from them since. Decision is still in process in online portal. I've heard it typically doesn't take long after pre-arrival for DM and PPR. How long did it take for most people who got their PPR after pre-arrival letter? Thanks

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    That's terrible. The way IRCC handles applications is so wildly inconsistent. Is your visa office also in London?

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    Hi, good to see that a lot of people who submitted their application in Dec 2020 have already received PPR. Any idea how many from the London visa office have received theirs? They seem to be slower than other VO's. My spouse/PA is from Pakistan, biometric done, medical passed in June 2021...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Question: does LVO send AOR2 (confirmation that documents were received) to everyone? I submitted my application on Dec 31 2020, AOR1 (from CPC-Sydney) received on Feb 14, biometrics submitted and moved to LVO on Mar 1 (they still haven't requested medical).

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    On IRCC website it says they're currently finalizing applications that were submitted between May 26 and June 1, 2019. Is progress expected to speed up to clear the backlog or should those who submitted their application in Dec 2020 expect processing time of 18 months? This is very disheartening...

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    Hi, I received AOR1 on Feb 13 but on the IRCC account it says "review of eligibility is still in process". I'm the sponsor (Canadian citizen) and representative for PA. Most people get their SA and Biometric/Medical request within a week mine still hasn't arrived (it's almost 2 weeks now), is it...

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    Those of you got AORs in Feb, did you get SA (spouse approval yet?). Most applications before got their SA in a few days after AOR, it's been 4 days and my spouse eligibility says it's still being reviewed. How long should I expect?

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    I'm curious can they return application after temporary file number is received? Or does it mean that application is complete and waiting to be processed?

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    Since when is marrying within Canada a requirement for Canadians? As a Canadian I am free to marry whoever I want from wherever they may be, and it is my right to live, study and work in Canada whenever I want. I'm not going to sit here and feel ashamed for having the guts to ask that this...

    SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

    I'm starting to feel the same way too honestly. I'm a Canadian citizen who was living in Pakistan for past several years and got married there - moved back to Canada for higher studies a year back and it's been so difficult. Even without COVID 12 months processing time is way too long for family...

    DECEMBER 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

    I hope they don't return it for this because it's not mentioned anywhere in their online Basic Guide to make sure the forms are up to date, if it's true they really should mention that it's not fair. Three of my forms were also updated in June or August and I realized this after submitting (wife...

    Change in travel/overseas trips AFTER submitting outland spouse sponsorship application

    My wife (the PA) was required to submit the travel history form (IMM5562) and it also asked about her spouse's travel history (i.e. me, the sponsor) in the last 5 years. The relationship information form did not specifically ask for my travel history but rather trips that I made to visit the...
