***DECEMBER 2018 OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP***
- Thread starter newbee2391
- Start date
Same here. What did your MP say? I am thinking of calling local mp office as well as ordering GCMS notes.Us too. Waiting waiting. Could be the destination VO is severely inundated or backlogged... OR could be a Bring Forward Date thing? (Our Visa Office is apparently in Mexico City) I see the trend for Mexico VO is that some aren't transferred for up to 5 months after initial receipt of application.
I am impatient. Our application is still sitting in Sydney. Why not just mail it?! I went to the MPs office today. Every day it sits there is puzzling to me.
The last 3 weeks were 0 visible progress after medicals passed; They won't mail off the application... I don't understand it. How hard is it to send it over to the VO? What is going on with Mexico VO

Review of eligibility We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Background check Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.
Final decision Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.
In our case it was:
Sponsor: received Sponsor Approval in email and in separate email received file transfer to Mississauga.
Principal Applicant: got biometric request and medical in GCkey separately (but got email both times saying new message in GCkey account and to log in).
However I know others have had medical instructions directly in email, and other Principal Applicants have had the file transfer email. So don’t think anything is set in stone!
Good luck!
The instructions say "Police Certificate: Please provide state level Police certificates for New Mexico and any state that you have resided in for 6 months or more."
I don't think we need it for Washington since it was over 11 years ago that he lived there, and he lived there from birth to the age of 12 (so therefore, he was a minor). We called the IRCC and the customer service representative agreed and said only for New Mexico. They said that they could also ask for an RCMP check at a later date, but for now it only applies to the US.
Since he's in Canada with me right now, we have to get what is called a Letter of Good Standing, and we have to get it notarized to prove the signatures on the form are truly from him. Then we're express shipping it to NM. We're planning to do it all today.
My timeline is in my signature on every post. But I’m aussuming you can’t see it as you’re on mobile?
So here are our details:
Outland Common-Law
Principal Applicant: British
Sponsor: Canadian
Our timeline so far:

What did MP say? Is he helpfulUs too. Waiting waiting. Could be the destination VO is severely inundated or backlogged... OR could be a Bring Forward Date thing?

It's must be realllllly frustrating to have to watch so many people be sent to CPC-M and be literally done already when you're in this situation, especially considering you're expecting. I haven't seen any transfers at all to Mexico lately though, have you? (I expect you already know about the Mexico office thread, so maybe you've noticed there.) If you're not seeing any transfers there then I imagine you're all going in one batch. They seriously need to open a second VO for South and Central American applicants, as it sounds like Mexico is backlogged beyond!Us too. Waiting waiting. Could be the destination VO is severely inundated or backlogged... OR could be a Bring Forward Date thing? (Our Visa Office is apparently in Mexico City) I see the trend for Mexico VO is that some aren't transferred for up to 5 months after initial receipt of application.

Hey guys!
My app got transferred to CPM-M feb 27. Also passed the medical exam. This is what it says in my GCKEY Accnt. In ECAS i dont have updates if they started processing my permanent residency application. What does this mean?
“We are processing your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.”

It means literally what it says
I guess your real question is how long it takes ..... Seriously, nobody really knows. But your application is in CPC-M, so it should be significantly quicker than most of others.Taking it as a waiting game, if you are impatient, you lose the gameUs too. Waiting waiting.

I have asked this question before as well but no one had a valid response. What if the app isn’t yet transferred but Background check on GCKEY says we started processing.... ?It means literally what it says
