Yeah if you can log in with your uci then it sure means that your file is transferred to your country.
And now the real wait begins hahaha.
And which visa office your file came to?

Ok, if I understand this correctly, your wife is your sponsor. She received an email with UCI number saying application received. That's AOR1, and the UCI number is HER UCI #.

Second email with your name and different UCI number is YOUR UCI #. They have approved her as sponsor, and the second email is AOR2.

Sometimes, the SA email doesn't go out right away. The email system used sends those types of emails in batches. You may get it in a week or two, or you may not see it at all.

Hope this helps?

Yes thanks..
First i was very confused whats going on but its all cleared now thanks.
Appreciate your help

under my side, it shows " we started processing xx's application on Sep.7.", but i am not sure whether my file is transferred to HongKong or not? I currently live in Canada, so is there any possible they will transfer my case to visa office in Canada?
I want to provide more supplementary evidence, so I am looking forward the confirmation email from them.
Melbourne is good, especially the coffee there.
Hahaaa...

Yeah!!!
It means itself that your file has been transferred if you can log in with your UCI.
And i m 99% sure that they won't do it once evrything is done they will let you know that we are ready to take decision and then you have to leave canada and go back to hongkong.
Then they will provide you documents and you have to come back to canada as permanent residence.Did you ask someone that how long its gonna take after this?


Hahaha it makes my day evryday..cofeee haaha

Ohh sorry you applied as inland applicant or outland?
If outland then they ask to leave beforetaking decision but inland they process your file in canada.
I applied from australia so i cant just get visitor visa and stay there forever.
And about your valid permit and visa.
When they grant you as permanent resident evry visa or permit you hold ryt now will be cancelled cuz you cant have two visas at the same time.

Yes i think you be alright till they dnt need you there.
I think they only make you leave canada when they ready to take decision so its only about leaving the country and entering again.
I mean you can just go and come back same day as well.
And please update when you get confirmation email as we all crossing fingers.
Hahahaah

The only time you would have to leave Canada is if they needed to interview you.

After you're approved, and receive your CoPR/passport with PR visa, you'll either make a landing appointment in Canada, or "flagpole" at the border. Meaning you'll need to briefly go into the U.S, then re enter so CBSA can do the final processing on your PR, and apply for your PR card.

Hello everyone!

I am glad that I found this forum! It is such a relief to have people who understand what exactly you are going through.
My Application status are as follows:

Sponsorship
1.We received your application to sponsor on July 21, 2016.
2.We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on August 12, 2016.
3.We started processing your application on August 11, 2016.
STATUS: DECISION MADE

Permanent Residence
1.We received your application for permanent residence on July 21, 2016.
2.We started processing your application on September 7, 2016.
STATUS: IN PROCESS


I am just confused because it says that Decision has been made for me as sponsor but I didn't received any email stating if I was approved as a sponsor or not.
But my husbands application was already sent to the visa officer in the Philippines and say in process as of September 7.

Does this mean that I am already approved to sponsor?
Kindly give me some insights in regards to this..

All opinion will be appreciated. :) :D
Hi there! Same as mine, we did not get a letter of approval of sorts. But we called CIC to confirm status, a few days later we received email from that our app was already transferred in Manila. :)

Hi omega,

Hope all is going well with everyone's applications!

For my husband and I, his eligibility is currently being reviewed. The wait is agonizing, haha. Wish there was a way to know how long it'd be!
Fingers crossed he can move here in December.

though we already received an emailing stating that they already received our paper in manila as of sept.7..
