My wife is in Beijing...not a good location considering all the tensions between the two countries:eek:
I wouldn't be too concerned about her location unless she has blond hair and toting a handbag with Canadian flag:eek:
But for you.... With the travel advisory and issues, I would think carefully before traveling to the mainland for now.
Hopefully the process will go as normal

Congrats to all who have got ppr,dm. :)

To folks whose files have not been transferred. I spoke to a friend of mine who had mentioned who went through this process last year. She mentioned that the transfer email came 1 month after her medical approval.

Although it may be a one off case. I wanted to check and see if anyone else (whose file has not been transferred) got any update.

I am originally from China too and been worried about this all the time. My file was transferred to Missisauga though but i doubt if it would make any difference since the background check will be done by other agencies than VO/CPC.
BGC is beyond control of IRCC. But at least your application is in CPC-M which is a super fast center, so your case would be definitely in a better situation than mine.

Thank you! That would be a good excuse if IRCC challenged why I don't visit my wife often enough this year:D But in reality, I think I just too small fish to be interested by anyone in China so I am not afraid travelling.:p

Let us see if the 1 month thing happens. If that were the case, a bunch of us will get the transfer done in early April (although, this is purely speculative at this point)
Well then in about 2 more weeks we might get an update hopefully!
Has anyone’s application completely processed in Sydney?

The only thing I will add is that the additional information (2nd post) is not necessarily correct. They claim only PA from high approval rate countries are put into the Low risk stream. My PA is from Philippines and we were processed completely in Mississauga and total processing time was only 4 months. It was never transferred to the local VO. I am doubting Philippines made it onto that prestige list of countries :p
Although it does state their triage criteria is subject to change so maybe that list has relaxed since then.

I would speculate triage criteria may contain other things such as time spent living together, age gap, etc. My case was a very simple situation (I lived with my wife in her country for years and still lived with her at the time of the application, we are both young and close in age, etc).
PA also is from Philippines. Our file was transferred to LVO. Was wondering also while some are being transferred and others are not. I've read on other threads those who had previous TRV applications also has an effect of moving your file to local visa office. Most of the files stayed in CPC-M has no history of TRVs. Not sure how true is that though.

Hello all,

I have a question if CIC asked a letter of explanation, Should we get an affidavit i.e Lawyer and signature stamp on the letter? or just my signature should be enough?
Thanks,
