congrats! you are pretty much done. check VFS global website for their requirements or https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/contact-ircc/offices/find-visa-application-centre.html

sometimes they might charge you a visa processing fee to get visa stamped unless biometrics are done recently. email them and find out if you need to pay anything. with COVID, they might charge a fee to courier back to you.
Appreciate the information provided, thankyou.

Hi Everyone - After waiting for more than a year. I finally received an email from IRCC today requesting for additional photographs from my wedding, Birth Certificate of my wife as well as a new medical request.

The email states that printed photographs needs to be sent to IRCC however the same email mentions that the documents either needs to be uploaded to her My CIC account or an IRCC email ID or using a web form.

Please can someone who has been requested to submit additional photographs advise if the photos can be uploaded over her CIC account or the photos needs to be printed and mailed to IRCC.

Additionally, any ideas how long the process may take from here provided all the required documents are submitted within a weeks time.

Details : Spousal Sponsorship Outside Canada
-- Primary Applicant : Wife (Based out of India)
-- Application Submitted : 13th Feb 2020.
-- Sponsorship Approval : 05th March 2020
-- 1st Medicals Submission : 13th March 2020.

Thank you in advance.

Hi friends ,Today my wife received a call from ndvo , but she was unable to answer due to some reasons . Totally there were six missed calls in-between 10:54am to 11:20 am. But the good thing is we received an biometrics request email at 11:23 am. I still wonder the call was meant for what , coz she already done with phone interview in the month of Feb 2021 and received pre - arrival service letter on the very next day of interview.

Hi,

VFS in India are open and they are working on the files from Feb 2020 applicants.
You should be able to hear something in the coming time.
Wondering there could be people with visa stamped to able to travel because of flight restrictions, how would one sort that part ?
Food for thought.

hopefully canada will lift flight restrictions in late august/ early September.
I have read other people’s submission where they’re waiting for PPR since DM in March 2021 I hope I won’t have to wait that long.

Go to the courts and apply for it. If the divorce was done in Canada they will have records of it they can give you at a cost of course.

You were supposed to submit the official certificate of divorce originally.

sorry i missed to mention that the letter is for my wife name, on the top it was mentioned my wife name (applicant). my wife never married before. this is her first marriage. why they are asking on my wife name??
one more thing they never mention that divorce certificate for spouse but they only mention that divorce certificate.

--- S A S (applicant name )
two points in IRCC letter

1)medical request
2)divorce letter ?? i am asking divorce letter for who?? for sponsor or for applicant?

Hello. March 2020 applicant. Spouse has been in Canada since July 6. Wondering if anyone whose application got approved and spouse landed in May or June have received PR card.
When my spouse landed the estimated processing time for new PR card was 143 days and when I checked today the estimated processing time is down to 50 days.
Wish luck to anyone still waiting for approval. Thank you.

Hi everyone,

We are Feb 2020 applicants but both I and my wife are in Canada. since we were not living together at the time of application, we were treated as if outland application.

We did not have our Walima because we wanted to do it in Pakistan, but due to COVID no one could travel. When they asked for ADR, we explained this to them why Walima was not done. This was in May 2021. However, we live together now and we gave them this information, including proof of same residence.

Our file moved from london to warsaw. any ideas how to expedite the process?

I had submitted application in February 2020 for my wife overseas and in the same month got request to do medical and biometrics. But then Covid hit and there was complete silence until July 2021. IRCC asked for re-medical and then sent pre-arrival services invitation.
Medical was passed (updated on the website) after 13 days.
Then exactly a week later we received invitation letter for passport submission.
Now we are waiting for VFS's payment link.

I know it can get very anxious due to the silence, but hang in there guys!
