Congrats! When was the portal invite sent?

Can you please share what a Pre- arrival letter looks like. I have received a letter from IRCC stating that "my spouse meets the eligibility requirements to apply for PR as a member of Spouse in Canada class". What does this mean- Did they start processing it now or this is a Pre-Arrival letter. Please let me know.

Yes, that means they have started processing the application further. They do eligibility checks for both the sponsor and the applicant.

has anyone had to submit additional documents and how long approx did they take to process? I will attach my timeline but basically we applied in December, had sponsor approval and PA approval in principle then about a few weeks after that we got an email to disregard the last emails as we were in re-assessment and they wanted the custody agreement for my 17 year old stepson, so we submitted that about 2 weeks ago. Mississauga office is processing our file. I feel we were in the final stages before another glance over and they asked for the custody arrangements, which they did have the non-accompanying letter from the other parent.

Hi,
I am sponsoring my wife and daughter (inland). We submitted for the PR 2 days ago on 06/03/2023. What is the next step? should we do something or just waiting for the AoR?
And an important question: how we can have a proof of application. I need it for my work. We only received an email, with no name/no personal information. Is there any way to print the submission from the website?

Did you do any screen shots or save any of the application forms? You may need to wait for AOR if you didn't. If you did, may be screen shots with the payment receipt will do? It depends on what your HR accepts.

Hi everyone,
I'm new in this forum. I planning to apply for Inland Spousal Sponsorship for my girlfriend soon.. She will be visiting Canada on a tourist visa and after getting court married she will be staying here for at least 6 months. I was wondering if anyone had to leave Canada and get re-entry while the Inland application is still in process. Thanks for your input

Sharing my timeline below, I'm just pretty confused because I don't know when I should be receiving the MIFI CSQ invitation to apply, is it after or before the eligibility or the background check? Would appreciate any input

The only option is just to be patient, I had a bit of a wait when I received my prearrival nov then the eligibility Dec. 5th. I eventually got approval Jan 6th this yr. You can send a web form to enquire but they will probably not respond or tell you that you applicantion is in process.

From what I've seen there's no specific order or timeline for getting any next step. As the previous comment says, you just need to be patient. If you compare with my timeline it looks like things are on track for you. Good luck!

Thanks for sharing. I'm just wondering how does the email for the CSQ request look like? Also does the CSQ request update show on the status tracker?
