    MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    Congratulations! How was the PPR sent to you? Was it posted on GCkey (with email saying 'we have sent you a message)? Or was it an email directly to the PA? Thanks!

    From 'Application Received' directly to 'Decision Made'

    We don't know. On the sponsorship approval letter dated Jan 4 2021, it said that our file would be sent to Paris. However we never received a confirmation for that, and for many people the VO was changed to another place, specifically China. We were not able to check the VO because we are both...

    From 'Application Received' directly to 'Decision Made'

    Yes that should be true... I think we are ok because there was no request for extra documents, no itw etc. I am also sharing what happened for those people stuck at 'app received'... so they know it could go directly to DM. Also, I am trying to see if maybe some people went back to In Process...

    That probably means that your application was received at the regional visa office. What is your timeline?

    Guangzhou VO

    Hi there, What is your application status on GCkey at the moment? Does it say 'submitted' or 'in process'? And regarding Ecas does it still say 'App received' or was it changed again to 'in process'? Thanks!

    Guangzhou VO

    I have heard nothing yet other than 'it will go to Paris' on the sponsorship letter. However I am suspecting it will go to Guangzhou instead because our details are pretty much the same as the person who opened this thread, including principal applicant country.

    Guangzhou VO

    Hi, The sponsorship approval letter is from Jan 5, 2021. It says that the file will be transferred to Paris (no other communication about VO other than the sponsorship letter). As per sartajsyed details above, it took them about one month for their status to change to 'application received'...

    Guangzhou VO

    Thanks for the details... So basically the same for us except that Ecas has not changed to 'Application received' yet for the principal applicant. It still says 'in process'. I agree it is indeed a very slow process... I hope you hear something soon from Guangzhou!

    Spousal sponsorship

    According to the spreadsheets there are many PPRs issued from Ottawa to outlanders on the same day (Dec 31, for applications spreading from Mar to May). Either it's a spreadsheet glitch, or Ottawa is processing in batches now. I wonder why they would do that... Where is the passport mailed to...
