Probably nothing wrong here. Does the sponsor's application still show "In Progress"?

Remember, they never see you or him. Just pictures. Who's to say that perhaps he wasn't radicalized in that hippy-loving town? They just do totally random checks to make sure the case was processed to standards is all...

Totally normal.

Mine was like that on March 20th. March 21st went to Decision Made and I got an email that evening. Next day, my wife got a medical request. A week later, she got AIP. Tuesday we got proof they took RPRF. So, I would say just wait it out -- you're soooo close...

Thank you Profiler :)

That sounded so encouraging!

The anxiety of waiting is really irritating, I know it's the same for everybody else :)

I hear ya. And you're most welcome.

For what it's worth, my wife's side of ECAS still states "Application Received". We have been told by our MP's office that she's passed everything and they're just waiting on an updated medical to pass a decision... but it still says "Application Received".

The anxiety gets worse when you know you're basically done, and you want to land already!

Hi Profiler
I applied my INland spouse sponsorship in August and sent OWP AT THE SAME TIME.
In oct.they sent an aletter for not sufficient fee.
I paid again the correct fee and after that they were saying that I have to wait it takes 4 months to be complete.
I called in March and they asked me to apply for restoration.
My last entry to canada was in July 2016 and I applied for my OWP in August.
I applied for restoration extending visitor visa again $200
nothing yet :mad:
Should I ask help from my MP?OR SHOULD I wait another 4 months

ohh man -- that's not good. When did you pay the restoration (and did you file the paperwork)?

You will see a line stating: "Medical results have been received." on the Principal Applicant side in ECAS.

Excuse me,

does anybody know what is the next step after the medical test?

How long does it still take for getting the final decision?

And for the medical test, I need 4 passports pictures, right?

Thanks!

Depends on what stages your case has already been through.

According to the medical examination instructions included with the IMM1017, 4 photos. But check with the office conducting the exam -- IME in Kitchener, as an example, takes the photos there electronically.
