Congrats! That was quick. I was required to capture fingerprints on May 16, and did it the same day. No updates afterwards.
*** December 2020 Inland Spousal Sponsorship ***
- Thread starter lacey
- Start date
I saw many people questioned about health care issue. I don’t know other provinces, but in BC province the applicants of this category can apply for health care card after staying more than three months. What the Health Card Authority needs are a form downloaded online ,your marriage licence, IRCC receipt for Spouse sponsorship application, passport, and your spouse’ s health care card number. It will take like one month for processing. Then MSP card will be issued as a dependent of our spouse’s care plan.
- We received your application for permanent residence on December 24, 2020.
- We started processing your application on June 9, 2021.
- We sent you a letter on June 9, 2021. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.

Same here, ours arrived on December 31st so at the very end of the pack, but we haven't heard a peep since the temp AOR on March 16th. I think it's normal unfortunately. It seems like their processing and organizing methods are pretty terrible even without factoring in covid, it seems entirely random as to who gets picked and how fast it is processed.
Even we didn't hear anything after Temp AOR, ours received on Dec 15th. I saw today on a FB group people from Jan 2021 Inland are getting AOR's, I really don't understand what is going on. I called IRCC couple of time and got very conflicting info both times, but the agents on both calls assured me that applications are processed in order, I don't think that true at all.
I've been pouring a ton of time into researching spousal sponsorship since early 2020, and everything I've read of other people's experiences shows me that they absolutely do not process in order, and also that the call centre doesn't know what they are talking about most of the time.
Take everything they say with a grain of salt.
If they really processed in order, there wouldn't be people who having been waiting over a year since their last update. I know that there can be issues with applications that make them take longer, but that doesn't explain people who do everything perfectly yet have to wait far longer than most.
I think they really need to overhaul how everything immigration related is done internally, because clearly it isn't good enough and we are the people who have to deal with it. It's way too confusing, inconsistent, inefficient and takes forever. The fact that they will take 8 months only to return an application and restart the entire process of waiting, just because you got a single tiny thing wrong is completely absurd.
