ask your wife to call her MP and find out why your file is going to islamabad. according to the CIC homepage, islamabad does not process family sponsorship applications, so there must be something really wrong here.
no thrs nothing wrong, read the 1 page of this thread , it wrote overthr tht if applicant is old thn thr file will b transfer to Isb first then to LVO and plus my status is now "we have started processing of ur PR app fro 19th April " so no need to worry i guess

everyone gets that status 5-10 days after file transfer. it's CIC's new way of updating ECAS. and age is not a reason for them to transfer the file to islamabad, because islamabad does not process family class sponsorship applications at all.

Age difference for sure is not the reason. I know a couple with an age difference of 14 years and their file was processed at London visa office.
In my opinion (Aboriginal-Canadian) should not be a reason as well.

What else can be the reason?
The answer is only possible after having input from applicants who applied recently i.e. end Feb/beginning March.

Come on guys, please comment. At least tell us, kashif bhai is the only one whose file is transferred to Islamabad or we also have some other applicants.
asad, i just contacted a relative of mine who submitted a sponsorship app for his pakistani wife (11 years younger than him). he got sponsor approval on April 19th, and his wife's file was set to London.

something is definetely strange about kashif's case, and his wife needs to call CIC or contact her MP to find out what's going on.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

I saw that too on cic website that all of the family sponsorship cases are sent to LONDON visa office and not pakistan..and CIC is working on october applicants now ( london thread shows that oct applicants are getting additional documents request)..if there was a problem than they would not have started working on them.

look


Phase 1: Sponsor's Approval


1. Sponsorship application submission (AT CPC-Mississauga)

2. First Email: application of sponsorship received by CPC-Mississauga (with in a week time or 10 days)

3. 2nd email: Sponsorship approval and File is sent to London Visa office for further processing (with in 1 month)
or if you are an old applicant (Islamabad Visa Office) then your file is transferred to LVO. whether you get email or not your file is in London.

No bro thats not the reason the reason is something else.and talking about the first page of this thread,than there was a backlog of applications in islbd office than CIC transferred all the applications to london and from than all of the family cases were sent to london and islbd was only dealing with visitors visa.

OLD application means application received before 2013.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

Thanks for the information. Hopefully, our cases will be decided at LVO.
Need input from few other recent applicants. Please comment where your file is transferred? LVO or ISB?

hope for the best but there is something that you need to find out because no matter how u marry, was it arranged or love every one has to travel to get married and there are alot of people here with love marriages so there is something else.
agree with flx tell your wife to talk to the MP as soon as possible.

Re: SPOUSAL Sponsorship PAKISTAN @ London Visa Office

May be your file is also transferred to London and writing Islamabad on your sponsorship approval letter is a typo.
