Congrats! I had a few questions for you if you have a few minutes:
-Did you show a higher income during the second application?
-Why would they reject the first time if you had showed enough income for a family of 5?
-how did you appeal the refusal?

Thanks.

Yes i did higher income. I added my spouse income but in first application i had enough income but i couldn’t wait for T4. So i applied without T4 . I used my job letter, pay stubs, and my year end pay slip. But seems like they didn’t accept even its mention on there website.
I appeal through webform and I applied on my own
 
Date of submission: March 25
Biometrics: Valid with previous Supervisa which expired in 2024
Medicals: Not done upfront but no request yet
Background verification: In Progress
Eligibility: Not started
Country of application: India

My parents had a Supervisa which expired with the expiry of the passport. They now have renewed their passports and hence applied for the Supervisa again. Biometrics are still valid so did not need to do that.

It's been 70 days today since applying and there has been no movement at all. The Processing Times website shows 77 days for most applications. Our application is going to go beyond the normal processing time without any updates.

I thought that because they had a valid Supervisa previously and traveled to Canada, it would be faster this time. Turns out everything is unpredictable with IRCC.

Any insights or pointers would be helpful. Thank you!
I am in same situation applied on March 20th but no updates yet

Applied with my sponsorship only and not with my spouse's. Mentioned my spouse's annual income in the invitation letter, though. The required funds condition is satisfied with only my income. Showed salary statements, paystubs, T4, and savings account statements with the letter of employment.

No upfront medical. No further action/update on the application status. The last modified date on the application status page is March 19, 2025.

Should I be alarmed and submit a webform because there are no updates after the completion of Biometrics?

In my opinion you should wait for couple more weeks as I see people from feb applications are getting results. But also there is no harm to send a webform.

No this is not unusual processing time. You really should have waited until you had NOA because that is the preferred proof of income earned. Many get denied without NOA.
