I'm a little confused because of this section of the PPR letter...
"Please provide the following information:
Two (2) recent photographs of yourself, your spouse or common-law partner and dependent children (if applicable). The application guide may be found on the CIC website at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/5445EB-e.pdf
Height and Eye Colour details for you and your spouse or common-law partner and dependent children (if applicable)."

Obviously the applicant needs to send these photos and his passport, but what about the spouse? I'm the spouse and sponsor, living abroad and I will be traveling to Canada with my husband.

They didn't give me decision made, however they asked for my husbands pictures, eye color, and height. But not mine (I am the Canadian sponsor, and our kids are already Canadian citizens).

Has anyone noticed the change in the status account, now there is a new line for me:
"Biometrics: We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes."

Besides, now they have placed my name on top of the page and gave me UCI number.
Did it happen to all of you? does anyone know what it means?

Still nothing :(
:( I am sad to hear that. Maybe giving them a call would help you figure out more about what is going on, have you tried that yet?

I do not think you are required to send them. Although I am living in Canada, I am the sponsor and I didn't have to send them even though they asked my husband to. Congrats, by the way! :)

Ordering the GCMS notes may help them to look at your file again. Have you done that already?

I am not sure what any of this means. Have you made a thread with this question on it's own in the main Family Class Sponsorship area? If not, that would be a good thing to do as more people may see it and be able to share their similar experiences with you if they have any.
