Spousal sponsorship

[2cookies]

Hi Everyone,

We submitted our OUTLAND Application from INDIA on Feb 19. On the tracker, medical and biometrics are completed.

Few days back, the eligibility was not started yet and Background check was in progress since the beginning, but just got an update that eligibility (PA) has been updated to in progress. Now, both eligibility and BGC both are in progress.

Does anybody knows how long does it take after they have started the eligibility (PA)? Sponsor's eligibility is already completed.

U both outland?

Does receiving the Invitation to Pre-Arrival Services Letter means we're almost done or still long ways to go?

I have a question regarding Spousal PR. I got married recently and now want to start the process of Spousal PR. I reside in Canada and my wife is in India. Does before starting the application passport details update is required like Change of Address and adding the Spouse Information. As updating the passport will take time or Old Passport and Marriage Certificate should be enough?

Thank you in advance.

You may need to wait a few days before you can link your application on GCKey. When asked about the number of applicants, try entering "2" — for example, 1 Principal Applicant (PA) and 1 sponsor.

Got it! thats what i was wondering. the email came yesterday and im unable to link it. il wait till next week to see if i could link the application to gckey. Thanks for the reply

Not necessary, passports are valid for 10 years. if your wife's passport is expiring in next 6 months then u need to renew it and add spouse name before applying
