Personally, I don't think I can qualify for SIR yet. I didn't submit my medicals upfront (will do early Nov) and haven't paid the $490 fee yet (I dunno why it didn't occur to me at the time) but I will until the end of the year.

That being said, I did notice on my notes that there's a group no assigned on my app:
Group name: Inland Prospective
Group #: 1-628TNRW


I would be very interested to know if someone else has the same group # (I assume that's how they assign apps to batches), especially s!nful that submitted the app a week before I did - it's him that I have my eyes on :)
I have not requested any GCMS notes yet so am unaware if I have been assigned any group no. And it's a HER. ;D 8)

Question(s) for Ms browning911: When did your last batch of notes get pulled from GCMS? Do they have anything like group # or a note regarding SIR?

i believe @legolg has the same group # as yours,,
I have a few questions about my notes, hopefully someone can explain.

App Status Reason: In Progress-SPR
Group Name: Inland Prospective
Group #: 1-628TNRW
Special Program: SIR
Special Program: 1
Primary: Yes
NOC: #### (What is that exactly? My occupation is listed as new worker. I have worked in Canada before though legally. Currently no work permit however due to loss of status)

Groups:1
Primary:Yes
Group #: 1-628TNRW
Name: Inland Prospective
Type: PR-Other
Other Type Description: Inland Prospective
Status: In Progress
Create Office: CIC Mississauga

Groups: 2
Has to do with batch notes for my schedule A and IMM 5406 E-Storage, so I'm assuming that means my background check. Status is in progress.
Application 1 & 2 status is open. Application 3 is prospective.

I question whether or not they are only accepting applications before June 13 2016 who had not received AIP for SIR... this is why

Hello All,

CIC recieved my inland spousal sponsorship application on Sep 16 and got AOR on Oct 20. But it doesn't mention anything about work permit. How do I know if they started processing work permit or not?

Thanks for your help.


regards,
Manisha

You have to wait for up to 3 1/2 to 4 months before your OWP arrive in your mailbox. There's no notification on that unless you register it online from paper application (gckey cic account).

So from when is the four month time frame? From the date they received the application i.e 2016 Sep 16 or from 2016 Oct 20(recieved AOR)? Is there any advantage if I link my application or it doesn't matter?

From the date they acknowledged they received it. That will be in your AOR. The only advantage to linking is to see when it has been approved. Then you might get frustrated with how long it takes to send to you.

So I submitted medical, PCC(from India and US) upfront. Is there a chance that they ask me those docs again? If so I can apply for US PCC as it takes 14weeks for them to process.

Again I landed on Aug 8th 2016 as visitor. So I can only stay until Feb 2017. Do I need to extend my stay before? As you are suggesting that it will take time for CIC to send work permit copy

If you sent it with your application package, which I believe you eluded to, then nope. Sit back and wait. There is little you can do for the next 4 months, unless they send you some info/doc requests.
