DECEMBER 2015 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

[Drkdd]

Hi Eichel,

Don't worry and over-think too much (although I did both when I didn't hear from CIC).
Last I talked to CIC agent, they told me that they have too many applications hence the delay. Hopefully you'll receive it soon.

Positive thoughts!

Can you please share me the CIC phone number where we can contact them

OMG are you serious!? So happy for them! I'm sure their VO aren't LVO like ours, who are notorious for taking 11+ months :-[

that happens for many reasons. interviews, remedicals, doc requests, etc. are all things that delay apps. they also had a backlog from islamabad VO which im guessing is mostly gone by now. furthermore, not too long ago they would only start background checks after eligibility had passed, but they're now doing both in parallel to reduce processing time.

in the end, only god knows how long they'll take for us December applicants, but there's always a chance that we might be done sooner than we think.

Hi Cali780, medical was requested from CIC-Email-Communications-CPCM I'm sure it wasn't LVO.

That's so great for you! Mine got sent to the Singapore VO about two weeks ago... The PR application side says IN Process but when i click on it i onlye have two lines.. the AOR and Medical received

Same you here, mine has been transfered to Singapore on Feb 19. The PR app. side says "in process" but inside just had 2 lines : App. received and Medical received.
I'm worry and have no idea about it. Someone has the same issue with us ?

Please use magic jack to call since it's an international (long distance) number for you since you're not in Canada. Maybe try 001 before dialing? I don't know how calls are placed from India.

I'm sure and there are a lot of people who had their SA received within few hours of receiving AOR yet it took 2+ weeks for me. Each application is different however, I'm praying that we all get lucky and have our apps approved sooner rather than later

Oh thank God! It helps to have someone in the same visa office.. I'll update you if anything comes up for me.
