Spousal Sponsorship in-land Applications 2017 timeline and updates

[jnt2017]

Any May or June applicants still awaiting Medical Requests? Our app was received on May 31st and we've heard nothing since we uploaded the PCC and Schedule A.

Tried calling CIC but got that message saying that the agents are unavailable.

I'm a Dec 5 2017 applicant but I am pretty sure my application is going to be returned to me.

My husband did not fill out the IMM 5406 form. I see now that on the form it says that both principal applicant and Spouse have to fill out their own copy of this but on the checklist it only says:
Additional Family Information (IMM 5406)
The following person(s) must fill out their own copy of this form: You (the principal applicant), any of your family members 18 years of age or older.

I guess spouse is your family but I assumed this was just children and my spouse is also my sponsor. Is it still too late to send this in by courier? Or just wait until application is returned?

Hey Lemur, I believe that your husband does not need to fill out this form based on the above - and I didn't fill it (Im the sponsor for my wife)

Hello,

I need an advice. My application has been returned. I just have to redo it IMM 5406. I sent it on November 29, 2017. During that time my common law partner was on visitor status which expired on December 15th, 2017. In the same time together with sponsorship application we submitted work permit application, and also extension of visitor status in Vergeville. Now that it has been returned after 2 months of waiting because of mistake on IMM 5406, should I just redo it IMM 5406 and resubmit with rest of the forms and maybe write short explanation letter of how my application was sent on November 2017 and has been returned on January 2018 or I have to fill out everything once again? Thank you!

This is what I found on the CIC website:

Note: If your application is rejected as “incomplete”, it is considered to have never been submitted and therefore you would not benefit from ‘implied status’. If you reapply after your current status has expired, you will need to apply for restoration of status. See the section Restoration of Status.

What a relief, thank you! I did not hear anything yet and have not seen the application returned to me by post either so fingers crossed.

yes,I think the sponsor does not need to fill out the form unless common law or spouse(if applicable) i believe this apply to a principal applicant who apply for pr on their own, i think best example is the live in caregivers who can apply for pr after 2 years and should include spouse and kids when they apply for their pr.

I agree, i didnt fill out that form (i am the sponsor); only my common-law did it and we have not heard anything back. we got already AOR and PCC and SA request which we uploaded a couple of months ago.

cheers!

So after the lady at the call centre told me to send the web form to IRCC asking about the mail I received that said I can only get my OWP after sponsor approval since I have no valid status, even though when I sent the application and when they received it I was still a visitor. Today I got an email back and this is what it said

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We have received your enquiry regarding the decision made on your application.

Please consult the decision letter that was sent to you on January 10, 2018, in order to obtain further details.

Today I got my app package returned in mail due to incomplete forms. I just missed to put complete address on IMM 5406 Additional Family information Form. I forgot to put Country (Canada) in the line of present address for principal applicant. So now I have to resubmit everything only because of that.

I would advise you check your IMM 5406 for other mistakes as well, like names in native languages. I also did not put country in my present address, I assumed if it is inland application, the present address has to be in Canada, thus I put province only, and they accepted it.

I am in the same boat but applied in March 28, 2017. No med yet only says your action is required.

Hi, is it likely to get medical exam request for everyone even you may have done it before entering Canada? (May be a year or two back)

Hi there,

I have a question, and hopefully you guys can help!

My friend and his family got PR by Skilled worker program in 2013, he had lived in Alberta until 2016, then he has moved to Montreal last year. His French is not so poor but he really needs to study French to get better, then to apply for a job in Montreal. Can he apply for CSQ? Because after that, he would like to apply for free French courses.

Medical exams for immigration purposes are only valid for 12 months.

The official website of immigration Québec has the requirements to apply for CSQ, I'm not sure where exactly though, since he's in the skilled worker program and I just tried through family sponsorship.
