I believe you should get an email either requesting her passport or as I did for a passport photo and photocopies of passport pages.
From what i have read so far, there is no need to send the passport since she is from a visa exempt country UK.
fingers crossed the copr comes fast.

After being messed around for months over documents missing (they lost our uk police cert 3 times!!) I was extatic to wake up to a decision made today after 15 months of waiting.

A big thank you to everyone on here for helping me keep my sanity during this process and sending lots of positive energy to those of you still waiting, especially those who have been waiting for as long as us. Will keep you posted on what happens next.

OMG OMG We have DECISION MADE :eek: ;D

What the heck on a weekend??? Can't believe it. Had to log in with hubby's details too just to make sure I was seeing right. This better be no Halloween joke! I have taken a screenshot just to make sure I'm not dreaming. Honestly I can't believe this as last notes received this month said Eligibility, Criminality and Background Checks all NOT STARTED!


I have my fingers crossed for all, especially all 2014 applicants who have waited wayyyy too long for DM.
LVO this better be no glitch in the system. :D

Congrats for everyone who got DM! :)

According to the spreadsheet, October 2015 has the highest number of DM's since July 2013 (counting some of the DM's reported in this thread that haven't yet been updated in the spreadsheet). Of course some of these DM's are for Ottawa applications, but let's hope London keeps this up!

I am almost speechless at the number of recent DM's, on a Saturday no less! I am still in process though so my wait goes on!

Spreadsheet updated for blondie, Sibby, Cambridge_Quebec, Bastingyapper, and I added Bubbles87.

Edit: The number of approvals in October have caused the spreadsheet's chart y-axis to adjust to higher numbers!

Hi,

I am a Canadian citizen living in the UK with my British husband. I understand one of the supporting documents to provide is ' proof that you intend to live in Canada with your spouse....'. I am currently unemployed but my husband works and earns enough to support both of us. He has been in touch with recruiters in Toronto and has received positive feedback re job hunting etc. Could anyone advise what documents I can provide as proof of our intention to move to Canada?

Many thanks.

Thank you all, this thread has truly been helpful. NVJ, funny right how untrusting we are when it comes to LVO that we have to double check!!

Thank you Andrew, I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you get your DM soon. Judging by the timelines of people who had similar requests to yours of countries visited and illnesses since medical, I'm sure you are next.
Will keep you updated re COPR arrival.
