Dear all,
Can someone help me with the understanding. I am being sponsored by my wife who is a Canadian citizen .the application was made on 8th may 2017, at time, due to beauocractic procedures in getting marriage certificate at the registry, my current visa run out.eventually the application was made with a request of OWP. My OWP was not given on the ground that l am out of status . Cic now determine my application and said l am not eligible because of out of status, however l have passed medical and admissibility except that l am out of status. In they stated in my GSM notes that l am eligible under public policy . It been almost 15months since the application was made and they haven't made the final decision . I therefore enquire through the webform about the status of my application . The CIC agent wrote to tell me my application has been transferred to special unit . I am confused l don't know what they meant by transfer to special unit .Pls any help

If you are inland (in Canada) you had to applied to extend your TPR while awaiting for a decision. If you are out of status, you need to apply to restore your status after 90 days you lost your status. At this point, I 'd suggest you consult with an Immigration Consultant as to what you should do.

I tried to apply for restoration but was denied because the 90 days period has passed away. I checked for the TPR but was also not eligible.
My GCMS notes says I have met all admissibility requirements but eligibility is in progress as they are considering my application on Public Policy grounds.
My out of status reason was due to overstaying in Canada. Though my wife and I has recently have a child and we have informed CIC accordingly.
However when I enquired from CIC about the delay in reaching decision, the CIC agent through email inform me my file has been transferred to special unit and this would result in additional delays but cannot tell me when CIC would finalized the decision. I am more confused and don`t know what to do now, As our finances is whole fully inadequate to hire the services of lawyer

Wow, but listen, try to contact a free consultation Migration Consultant that can provide you some insights . Usually you can book a free consultation which can get you with some answers. Try to Research by the type of migration issues you are facing, and I'm sure you will find an expert that can provide you with some light. Good luck!!

I just got notice on the website that they started to review eligibility. How long does this take usually? And is it normal not to get an email for this?

Thanks!

That’s not a question related to spousal sponsorship. Contact your airline.

Hi
We submitted the application in end of March for spouse sponsorship. Haven’t received the OWP as yet.
Any idea around the timelines?
Thanks!

I believe you will be assigned a seat when you check in the day of your flight
