IRCC reassessing my eligibility requirements to apply for PR as a member of the spouse in Canada Class(Both Applicant and Sponsor)

[Ajkum17]

Hi Friends,

I have applied to sponsor my spouse under the Application for Permanent Residence under the Spouse or Common-Law Partner in Canada Class. Today, I received an email from IRCC stating that they are currently reassessing my (Sponsor) eligibility requirements to apply for permanent residence as a member of the Spouse or Common-Law Partner in Canada Class. I’m not sure why I received this letter. The same was received by my spouse (Principal Applicant) as well.

I assume it may be because my wife left for India a couple of days ago due to a family emergency. However, before she left, we had already submitted a webform to notify IRCC about her travel. Prior to that, we also called IRCC to confirm whether it was legally permissible to travel to India while the application was in progress. The agent confirmed that as long as my spouse had a valid visa, she could exit and re-enter Canada. My spouse already holds a SOWP valid until November 2026.

I’m confused about why I received this letter. Is anyone else in the same situation? If yes, could you please share your experience or feedback on what to expect from IRCC?

Thank you very much for your help—your responses will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

A lot of travel for 2 days. Is PA eligible to sponsor (meet RO)? Call IRCC and ask.

I spoke to IRCC Agent and the agent itself is not clear why that letter was sent. The agent asked me to wait until further notification.
