I went through the same situation. They returned my spousal sponsorship file saying form 5532 was missing signature and the ridiculous thing is signatures were right there. they did not check the form even and we checked the form several times on portal even after the rejection but as IRCC never does mistake so we had to file again.

@Harshika41 , I am into similar situation where it says today

Consent and Declaration

• · If the principal applicant is 18 years of age or older, they must sign their own forms.

then after signing it with principal applicant , how long it took for you got AOR ?

 

[Aakash91]

& did you attach copy of that email while resubmitting, actually I could not see an option to submit.. so PA just signed and resubmitted so will that be ok ?

IRCC is laying off thousands and could worsen processing times:
