Adding spouse after AOR

[Samurai89]

After submitting documents for spouse though web form, how much time it will take for u to get request of medical and biometric of your spouse OR is IRCC update our profile that she has been added to your profile.?

Here's the thing, I don't know if my response will be the exact reply you would've expected in this case.

It depends, from case to case, document to document.. the reply time changes. You may get a response sooner than anyone else or earlier. I was just like you months back, losing sleep waiting IRCC responses for web-forms, emails. I came to Canada 3 months back exactly, looking back and I wish I didn't waste all that time, I should've just slept lol because in the end, everything happens the way it's intended to.

to answer your question, I will drop you timeline below.

ADR requested by Colombo Visa office - 26/08/2019
BIL received for spouse - 20/09/2019

As I've told you before, I did not have to wait for Medical request because we submitted my wife's upfront Medical.

She was added to my profile 5 days after I submitted the documents through the webform, but I was never notified about this, don't expect to be.

Also, after she was added we received the biometrics request letter after 9 days. 3 days later she submitted her biometrics and the PR was approved the day after.

Overall adding her to my application and having PR approved took about 2 weeks. Also note that my application hadn't been already approved, however, all 4 stages (criminality, security, medical and eligibility) had been marked as passed.

Hi there!,
Just need immediate help hence why im posting here.

I am currently renewing my study permit and have been asked to upload documents by the 21st of April. The upload tab shows these are required by the 21st. my question- does the time frame include the 21st, can I upload the documents on the 21st or will the upload option disappear?

Why are you asking this in a thread that has nothing to do with your question?

 

[Aryan.kabir03]

What do you even mean by that? If you add your wife as a dependant to your existing application... She is not applying, she is a dependant in your application.
I mean, it's not like your wife will be processed under FSW or something like that...

Of course...

But in requested forms they ask to fill forms both for myself and for my wife, that’s why I’m too confused.

Yes, you have to fill the forms for both of you.

I just realized what your problem is, just fill the following forms as follows:

• imm0008enu_2d --> fill this only for yourself (not for both)
• imm008depenu --> fill this for your wife only (not for both)
• imm5406e --> fill this one for both
• imm5669e --> fill this for your wife only (not both)

I think you were filling the first one for both of you, which you shouldn't do.

Also, I hyperlinked the forms, so you can just click on them to download each of the forms.

Don't forget you also need to upload:

• Your wife's passport (bio page and any additional page with stamps)
• Any applicable Police certificates (from the countries where she's lived for 6 or more months during the past 10 years)
• eMedical tracking sheet for Upfront Medicals (not mandatory at this stage but recommended)
• Receipt of payment (including PRPF, Biometrics fee, and RPRF [optional])
• Marriage certificate, with translation if needed
• Your wife's birth certificate, with translation if needed
• Letter of Explanation.

Hope this clarifies!
