Applied Feb 2nd
Biometrics were already done as this is a reapplication.
BVL on Feb 8th.
Waiting for an update.
Eligibility review not yet started according to status.
I thought the decision comes immediately after BVL.

May I ask when did you first apply? And why did you reapply?

May I ask when did you first apply? And why did you reapply?

First applied in Jan, got generic refusal in just a few days after biometrics so I suspect they didn't even review. Status didn't change to reviewing. Reapplied Feb 2nd. Currently waiting.

In india and he is not travelling with me

As per Canada visa process
They treat you married once you have been in married life for 365 days, and being in relationship they treat you as doubtful applicant unless you have very strong ties and travel history
Apply for GCMS notes

Congrats....also when you applied for 2-way courier service, did they come over to your home and pick the passport or did you courier it from the nearest bluedart .... My mother got her pp submit request, wanted to know if they come over and pick up the courier from home if paid extra

It really depends on blue dart service.
The blue dart rep told me that they do not have enough manpower (ridiculous it sounds I know )
So I went to nearest blue dart center and submitted on my own.
But ask specifically.
