**PARIS VISA OFFICE 2018/2019 SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP**

[hnttmh]

Welcome! Unfortunately I am not familiar with OWP as we are applying outland. Are you inland? Was your file received in January as well? For linking on GCKey make sure to put 2 for number of people. Please see this link and hopefully it will help you with linking: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/mycic-link-application-issue.443957/page-6 I know @Mmmkama was having issues with GCKey too and others so do not panic. If you received AOR, SA and file transfer yiu are good!

Thanks for your quick replying. I am outside Canada. I am living in France now. My husband is French. He is working in Canada as computer engineer. I applied OWP at VAC of Lyon on February 26th, 2019. Then I checked my tracking number. It was already being processed in Canada visa office, Paris. So I think my file was already recevied. Thanks for sharing the link. I checked this link before. I am not Permanent Residence，I am Temporary Residencem, So I don't have AOR and SA. I tried a lot of methods I can, But it still doesn't work.

Ahh okay well I'm glad they received it that's a good thing! Ohh it is different I am so sorry I am not familiar with that kind of case but I did find this in the FB group! I hope it helps! It is a PDF file but I don't think I can attach it here. I will copy and paste what it says but the file actually shows images of the steps. I hope this helps!

"select ‘Applied for permanent residence as a spouse or common-law partner
In Canada’." Because I always select 'a spouse or common-law partner of skill worker' I will try tonight. But I worried I am not permanent residence. I will let you know.Good luck for Everyone.

By the way, How long do you need to wait for your visa? When I applied, It was 2 weeks for waiting my visa, But after I applied, It is growing time everyweek. It is increasing gradually from 2 weeks to 6 weeks，Today I just finished waiting for 6 weeks and 2 days.I hope they will not increase again.My husband waits me in France for going to Canada with me. But now it is twice as long as the original plan. It is so suck. His company is also anxious for us. They hired a lawyer, But we still don't know how can we let the visa office to speed up the review. We don't have any news from my visa.

So we are the same haha I really hope we hear something if not before April ends for sure in May. Something good like a biometrics request or pre-arrival letter. Although I know people from June are still waiting, even February 2018 at the Paris office and it seems unfair. But we can only hope for the best!
