406 days and counting

[JohnnyDamien]

Inland Spousal Sponsorship here, 406 days and counting. Eligibility still has not started.

I got a hold of IRCC by phone and asked what is the hold up. I was told, Medical, background, criminality all passed, but eligibility has not yet started. I was told that the normal time is 15 months and to just wait.
I have been trying to make sense of it all, i have friends who come from the same country, same situation(kids, spouse who is a citizen, etc...) received their COPR months before me and i am still waiting.
Is it possible that because I cancelled the use of a representative or because i added the birth of a child in Canada this caused delays? I mean, my file has been at a standstill since DECEMBER!

Any change will create delays. Every case is different so hard to compare to others.

At last, after such a long time, eligibility has started. Does anyone know how long it takes for eligibility to be completed? Background check was completed in December.

Usually completed within 1-2 months and then you get PPR.
