Remedical request from CIC- Wife Sponsorship

[niana.j]

Does this mean that they are satisfied with the relationship and I should be expecting the passport request soon?? :-\

not that I know, but I'd venture a guess if you'd share any of the details of your location Visa Office(s) etc..

Visa office is Islamabad.
Applied in March 2012.

No, if your file goes into "In Process", then they're satisfied with relationship. Until then, a re-med doesn't mean anything other than your medical has expired, they still haven't reached a decision on your file yet, and they just want another one. This is quite common especially for applicants from VOs who have very long processing times.

It's much easier to speculate when all of your information is spelled out in your profile.. I can see why it's a useful feature here in the forum!

So, obviously your sponsorship has been approved... probably outland application..? looks like you're at; Step 2 – "Medical, security, background checks and other verifications for person being sponsored.."

My guess would be.., depending on the reason for the Redo of the Medical, the chances that your relationship has passed without questions, look good.

I take it that your file was transferred to Islamabad? - If not, then maybe they reviewed all of the above before granting sponsorship - it is a 32 month processing time for Islamabad! wow, that's the longest one of all for spousal sponsorships.., my heart goes out to you and yours

You're at 27 months since submitting! I think things should be winding up (or down...hah)

Actually, stage 1 for an Outland application is only the approval of the sponsor. The relationship assessment is part of stage 2.

SA (Outland) and AIP (Inland) are not the same, even though they are each considered stage 1 approval.

good point - do you think he's not well into "Step 2" after 27 of the estimated 32 months?

Logic tells me yes.

Reality of how things seem to work tells me...who knows!

I suppose one of the Pakistan, or Islamabad threads may give the OP a better idea.

I apologize for the sparse information in my profile. I had it all filled up once but took it out in frustration.

My timeline is:
App Filed: March 2012
Transfer to Ottawa: June 2012
Additional Proof of relationship (vacation pics etc) submitted: May 2013
Transfer to Islamabad: June 2013
Remedical and RePcc request:November 2013


Yes the sponsorship was approved...it is just the second part that I am waiting on.
I was thinking that the remed in nov 2013 was a good sign. I had my hopes high but after waiting for passport request for so long- the old negative feelings are coming back.

Since then waiting..
