Thank you. My application too was sent to New Delhi VO as mentioned on the sponsor approval email but no update since then.

The inquiries you made on Dec 12 and 20, were they in response to any specific request from IRCC?

Since I have roughly the same application date as you but the application still says background check in progress and eligibility not started since November, I was wondering if there is anything we could do to move it forward.
it was about change of address for sponsor and change of employment for sponsor

Sometimes they send it, sometimes not. Main thing is when your eligibility changes to In progress... Usually once that happens, soon after 15-20 days it changes to completed (ofcourse not always the case)... Then COPR number.

Thats the main thing. Let's hope we all get it sooner than expected. IA.

IA. Alright, that makes somewhat sense. I was hoping eligibility would change right after medical gets completed, but its weird. Tracker shows not started, but gckey shows that eligibility is being reviewed, so not sure which is more accurate.

Plus tracker shows 20th January for medical completed, gckey shows 21st January, but it got updated on 22nd January XD. Just another part of this weird procedure i guess.

Hello everyone, I have a question. I am applying for my spouse PR who is in India and I am here on PR. Can I also apply for her visitor visa at the same time or is it a better idea to wait until I get AOR?

Nothing yet, has been in progress since December 13.

We added the application on the IRCC portal as well. But that seems to have even less information than the PR portal.

What number do you call them on and what info do we have to keep ready at our end before we call?
