I was just wondering how long everybody has been waiting since they submitted the application to sponsor a spouse into Canada? I know it is different for everyone, but I was just wanting to get an idea.

best way for you to know is probably to look at the different spreadsheets. THere are so many different cases - depending on WHEN you applied, from WHERE etc...

you won't get people to answer probably, but I recommend you look at this document that will summarize - so you can check what you are interested in http://tiny.cc/5t4vgw

Good luck,

Another good resource is Trackitt:

You can sort by visa office and other criteria to see processing times of others.

I assume your sponsoring from mexico... because of your name ?

if you want to know for mexico, right now the average processing time from when mexico city gets your application to when they give you a visa is 6-8 months.

so far we have been waiting 5 months. through mexico city and we are near the end
