    Thank you! That's all I needed to know. Hopefully the DM status in ECAS results in a happy letter from IRCC in due course.

    MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    Can someone please clarify this for me? My partner was unable to get his biometrics done in Ireland because the VAC was closed. It has since reopened operations and we received a letter from IRCC through our GCKey that he is now to get them done. He went in on June 18, 2021 and that is showing...

    Hi all. I just got notification that IRCC are requesting Form IMM5409 - Statutory Declaration of Common Law Union. The letter says with both original signatures but then asks to upload forms using IRCC account. I take it scanned signatures are fine then?

    Can anyone comment on how people are getting biometrics done when VACs are closed? Are they actually properly closed or taking people by appointment only? PA is in Ireland and would be doing biometrics in Dublin. The website says the Dublin VAC is temporarily closed.

    I got my MP to reach out back in August and they were able to confirm that our documents were received on March 13/20. We were assigned a UCI number and temp application number. Received Biometrics today, still awaiting AOR1 and SA.

    MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    FINALLY!!!! My partner (the PA) received the biometrics letter today. We still don't have AOR1 or SA but I'll take this as a win. I take it this means that they are now processing our application?

    My other thought is that maybe they divided the applications up between staff and whoever got our chunk is really slow or hasn't been working.

    MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    I have definitely been noticing a trend of what countries are getting movement and which are not. I hate to say it but is there a possibility that the IRCC staff checking for completeness are favouring applications over others? My PA is from Ireland so it is probably stuck between a lot of other...

    PA is from Ireland and our package was delivered on March 13, 2020. So frustrated there is no movement.

    I'm going to start losing my mind very quickly here. Had the guy who had the last chunk of March quit or something?! Arrrgh

    MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    I wonder what the stall might be on my application! Comparatively non-complex - no kids, lots of evidence of common law cohabitation, PA from Ireland. March 12 was when our application was delivered/received by Sydney. The PA did come to Canada on a two-year IEC visa in 2015 and paid all his...

    MARCH 2020 *Outland* Spousal Sponsorship

    I am getting really frustrated. Our application was received on March 13, 2020 as confirmed by my MP with a temp file number and UCI. I cannot link the application on ECAS and we have not received AOR at all and now April applicants are getting AOR? Our application is not complicated - we do not...
