Hi Everyone.

I got Ready for Visa ( PPR ) Email today, and we are planning to book a VFS Appointment in Bangalore for Passport Submission.

the VFS Appointment booking system is asking us for a Passport submission letter ( Official one ) that IRCC sends, I have not received any such letter and only have the email.

Can someone confirm if a Print out of this email will be accepted to book the appointment and submit our passports. ? Thank you

Hi! I’m new on here. I applied on July 28th, 2022 for my Outland spouse sponsorship. I was wondering if anyone has been called for an interview and if there is anyone whose application is also sent to Mexico VO or knows about that office? My husband is from El Salvador and our application got sent over to Mexico City. These are our details,

July. 28, 2022 - application submitted online
November 4 - AOR and Biometrics request
January 3 - medical request
January 16 - medicals passed
January 23 - Eligibility started/ in progress in PR Tracker

Since then I haven’t had anymore updates other then Ghost updates almost every day since the month of February started. I’d like to think it means PPR soon but I really hope it won’t take too much longer ☹ and fingers crossed no interviews will be needed. Does anyone know how long it takes after this last step? Also I cannot seem to log into my eCAS, it always says my information is wrong even in everything is right. Thank you guys for the help in this forum!

Hi, there was an update from IRCC about the "ghost updates" which they answered in their official twitter you can click the link to their tweet if you'd like.


"Hi. The “updated” date refers to the date when data from IRCC’s system was last refreshed and reflected in the tracker. It does not necessarily mean that your file has been updated on this date. "

I want real updates :(
