I am a naturalized Canadian citizen and I have submitted a spousal sponsorship application for my wife, who is currently residing in Pakistan.
Initially, her application was being processed at the London visa office. However, I recently submitted webform for finding the status of the application and they replied stating that her file has been transferred to an office within Canada.
I would like to ask if this transfer is a normal part of the processing procedure for an outside Canada spousal sponsorship application. I was under the impression that such applications are typically processed at overseas visa offices, so I was surprised to see it moved to an office inside Canada.
Could you please clarify the reason for this transfer and whether it will have any impact on the processing time or the status of the application?
Thank you for your time and assistance.
