Hi WeAreThe11,

There are multiple variables/factors play into the assessment of an application. Hence, the Red Flags would be more.

Complexity of the case - Need not to say if the case is not straight forward it takes more time.
Application is not clear - How good the narrations in the application are, and how understandable by assigned officer.
Travel History - It makes lot of difference. Trips to Canada need additonal back ground checks. Working and Living in some specific countries (red flaged countries) will add more time.
Changes in family - Births/Deaths of parents/children/siblings etc sponsor/sponsored etc will increase timeline. Someone rediculed for having a PCC for an infant. But I read news in internet more than one time about infant thefts from hospitals.
Work history of Sponsored Person - working with governments/UN - if sponsored person worked for foreign government (including country of birth, India) would require more security checks.
Current Job of Sponsor - If sponsor is working for crown corporations and/or governments (Fed/Prov) the spousal background is done during the process time.
Medical concerns - If medical board suggests remedical to ensure no active health concerns. Please note not only the expiry date will warrant a remedical but any health concern would trigger the process.
Need for interview - If an interview is recommended the schedule will add more time.

The above are a few factors but many more will come into play during processing and assessing an application. I hope this helps a bit.

Cheers.
 
thanks canada50 for the info... I have a que...I have lived in US with my husband for 4 years, then our visa expired and we departed...he wen to Canada since he is a Canadian citizen and I came to India for being an Indian citizen...Do you think this is gonna prolong my visa approval even though a PCC for US is sent as well? Also if my husband didn't visit us for the whole year we r in India, is a RED FLAG? Actually, my husband picked a new job in Canada so he cant come....also I don't want him to face the indian heat at all...can all the forum members suggest what can go wrong, if it does....otherwise we have all things pretty straight...

Your husband being the sponsor , his checks are done before the file got transferred to Delhi . So now only thing that's gonna take little longer is your own back ground checks . Even though you provided them with PCC , they will confirm with IFS for your last entry to India . PCC don't show what day you flew from us and if on the way you did anything . That can only be confirmed by airport authorities . So travel history always delay process little bit .
Second your relationship is genuine , and sure you will have enough evidence to prove your four year long and on going relation ship . Your had a child before applying and his DNA report will huge to confirm if it goes to interview . I sure you must have included some pictures taken together at the time your child's birth .
It's also true that similar cases like yours always go through scanner since you were in states and why didn't you apply earlier . Why only after us visa expired ? . But again in genuine relationship you will have more than enough evidence to prove yourself . Only thing I see is May be little extra time , you have nothing else to worry about .
 
J.J...it has been a month since your status changed to 'DM'..what is going on? I thought when status changes to 'DM' it is the end of process (positive or negative) and no more waiting (except for passport or letter from NDVO) for long time...why such much delay in your case...
 
Hi guys,
I am new to this forum and I need some help regarding the marriage proof for the sponsorship application.
Here is my story...
I am a canadian citizen and just married my high school sweetheart in india. But for the marriage proof all I have is a marriage certificate and a certificate from the mandir. I donot have any pictures of the actual rituals and ceremony in the temple. I have provided all the pictures of the engagement ceremony with a lot of family members including my inlaws.
Can somebody advise if the photos of the marraige in the temple are must or not and if the marriage certificate is good enough with the engagement pictures.

Thanks

it could be a problem unless you can provide more documentation such as trips taken after marriage; communication after marriage; testimonials about your relationship from friends and relatives; etc...marriage ceremony pictures are not must but I must say visa officers might wonder in this smart phone age why there is no picture of marriage...if you can avoid unnecessary questions from visa office then it is better... somebody in the crowd could have taken some picture showing you both married...

So frustrated with NDVO behavior , I have no clue what's taking so long . It's gonna be exactly 12 months tomorow since application filed . If I know what's their decision wait could have been little easier . Tried with mp office but they want me to wait till July . My file went to ' in process ' on May 19 , 'DM' on May 25 and medical expired June 07 . And have no clue what's gonna happen next .
But I found out there are few more waiting over three weeks , and there's one member whose status been reveresed to ' in process' yesterday after DM on June 01 . So can't say anything ......

what's wrong with NDVO? my status changed to 'DM' on saturday and I am waiting for passport. Not only I have to worry if they will send the passport late but also if ecas will revert to 'in process' ...this is scary that it changes back to 'in process' after three weeks....
