• You may see an incorrect application status asking for a medical exam or additional documents. If you actually need to send any documents or do a medical, you will see a message in your account and a letter explaining what you need to do.

That's good they've finallyyyyyyy cleared that up. Thousands of people were freaking out. Can't believe it took that long to fix/make a statement.

We are already going through enough, they need to stop messingwith our feelings with this kind of fake updates.

Yeah that was awful. I can't believe it took them almost a week to put out a statement. I was loosing my mind because I still can't get into myCIC and we are august apps and we should be up next to actually hearing something.

Hello everyone, I have not been here for while because this process is very painful and discouraging. I can't understand why is taking so long for this Accra office to communicate with us about what is going on with our file? Honestly, I lost hope with the way the system works after all the fees we paid to process our application but it seems like it is a free service they are offering us. I just saw that on myCIC link account it says they are reviewing the additional document we provided but we never provided any additional document to the office.

Hi BBC. I hear you. This process sucks. I've stopped counting the days.

If you've been away for a bit you will have missed the glitch that happened last Tuesday with everyone's myCIC account. Take a look at a few pages back. Ignore the status changes. CIC issued a statement about it. Unless you get a message to act on something or an email, it's a mistake in their system. This happened to everyone's applications, every class of immigration, every country and every stage of the process. It's been quite the week.

It's a waiting game and requires a lot of patience.

@bbccanada

Thank you becos and Xis for your information I really appreciate! As for the Accra office we say thanks you for the we you are treating applicants with very unprofessionalism. They can do whatever they want but God is in control. I know they have a lot of files to work on but how long it takes to figure our a genuine marriage? I think they are more interested putting our file in the dust than to speed up the process to reunite us with our love ones.

Thank you very much Let's be brave and positive! I have a lot of questions but I'll stay patient!
Please correct me if I am wrong but, I saw a lot of applicants refused without any interview ? I thought they didn't have the right to do that. Or did I just miss the moment they had an interview ?

Hi cookie1234, welcome to the house.

Yes people can be refused without an interview. They are rarely refused without being asked for documentation to support their worries that you don't meet the requirements first. Like they could ask for more documentation to support a genuine relationship or documentation to support your identity, etc. They can say in that letter "you do not meet the requirements, we are giving you 30 days" basically to provide information to prove us wrong. If that doesn't satisfy them they can refuse you. An interview kind of acts like the request for extra docs. So the interview doesn't have to happen to be refused.

My only worry is that all these delays might affect our share of the yearly spouse sponsorship quota.

Wow.... I don't know what is more stressful between the two options. We are probably going to have one of them because of my history (tried to visit my hubby in Canada but got no luck and I heard that any previous refusal leads to an interview).
Maybe the interview process takes longer... Althoug it looks like more people are refused after sending more documents, than after having an interview.

Anyway it's another week! All the best to everyone I wish good news are on their way

Good morning guys,

So i noticed that request for medical has been removed from my ECAS and it now reads" Medical not needed now", another update also is that the additional documents are submitted are being reviewed. This feels good and hopefully, we all we get good news this month.............
