Hi Sushi777,

1. what it shows on your profile in Review of Additional documents section?:
mine is showing after submitted additional documents--"Review of additional documents - The additional documents you provided have been uploaded."

2. is your spouse name showing your profile anywhere after Additional documents submission
3. were you done with Biometrics for you or spouse

stream:CEC express entry
AOR: Nov 14, 2018
Medicals: passed before marriage
Marriage: Dec 28, 2018
1st CSE to update about marriage: Jan 20, 2019
2nd CSE: Feb 27, 2019 (No response for this from IRCC)
ADR request- April 17,2019
ADR submitted- April 23,2019


Thanks
Mine shows we are reviewing the documents you uploaded

Yes my spouse's name is now in my profile, under a new field called dependents

I was not required to get bio-metrics. I am not sure if the same will apply for my spouse or if this will change


It looks like we have similar dates. Let's keep in touch to see how this goes. They should update your profile soon. let me know what they do

how did they notify you that your spouse needed biometrics? was it through your account?

My status bar shows 20 days. Do you think we will get ppr within this original timeframe or months after since we added someone new?
they didn't notify me about biometrics yet? i came to know from cic website
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/biometrics.asp

mostly it will finish before 6 months time frame, if didn't add spouse,
but adding spouse may delay process time, actually delay is not true in every case, we will see .

-Marriage : March 14, 2019
-Started Informing CIC of Marriage: March 15, 2019 (CSE, phone calls etc.)
-Got request letter in my CIC portal: 27 March, 2019 [2 place holders (4 MB each )for Application kit & LOE, provided] & got 1 month to submit.
-Uploaded the documents & submitted with Fees payment of 1040 CAD: 24 April, 2019
-Spouse medicals Passed: 25 April, 2019 [ADR section updated in my CIC portal:"We are reviewing the documents provided"]
-Upfront Medicals & Updated POF for two persons provided, although they did not ask for updated POF now.

Hi Sibasish,

how did you paid fees for spouse, you find the instructions yourself and attached fee receipt with additional documents for your spouse or they asked you to pay spouse fee

Thanks

i didn't paid fee for spouse, during submission of additional documents for spouse.
so i am thinking that causes delay to reflect spouse name in my profile after 10 days.

is it good,if i pay spouse fee from below link and send receipt through webform
https://eservices.cic.gc.ca/epay/order.do?category=10070

please suggest
I am not a lawyer nor an expert so take this with a grain of salt. I would suggest you pay using that link and email the receipt to your respecting visa office directly with your application information. Is there a reason you didn't pay right away? it did say that if your spouse is accompanying you fees should be paid ( what I got from that is if fees aren't paid immediately they'd assume that your spouse is not coming) I maybe wrong about all of this! . All the best

For payment of fees, I was given a URL in an email sent by Delhi Immigration. I paid the fees CAD$1040 upfront.

Greetings,

So I've recently received my 2nd PPR after successfully adding my spouse to my PR Application. I'm currently residing in the US while she's still in Egypt. the PPR letter has only my information as the principal applicant and instructions for submitting passports to Ottawa VO. My question is, Is this normal? and how can I submit my wife's PP to Ottawa when she's still in Egypt? I could use some help here.

Congrats!!! Could you share your timeline with us? PPR letters only have the principal applicant's information but both passports are required. Yes submit the passports to whatever visa office that they ask you to submit to. Is it possible for your wife to send you her passport via fedex and then you submit both to the required VO? if you're unsure and just want to confirm everything I suggest you give them a call! congrats again

ADR (Military Records) September 14th 2018
Married January 25th 2019
1st PPR January 31st 2019
Notified CIC of Marriage along with Support Docs February 26 2019
