Are they just slow or what. My application (i am sponsoring my wife) was received on Feb 16, 2017 and we have not received any acknowledgment from London office.
Medical was passed on April 17 and after that there has been no update at all and its almost August.

GC Key is kinda stuck with the same info !

Is this normal or do I need to check with my MP?

I have the exact same case and same timeline as you. So far, I have contacted my MP and sent an email to LVO. The MP didn't provide much new info besides what's already on myCIC, and LVO hasn't replied yet. I plan to order notes in the next few weeks iA.

2017 applicants where did u sent your pcc and schedule A. There are like 4 different addresses of cpc missisauaga. Need to tell someone please help.

I just uploaded them online. But if you want to mail them, check the "Submit your application by mail" section on this link
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/5525ETOC.asp
Yes there are 3 different addresses, but it tells you what each one is for, so choose the one that fits your case/method of mailing.

Hi helpful members,

It might be a silly question but any help will be appreciated, for IMM5532E, Question 7 , if yes give details

I am the sponsor and filled it like this for her sister

Family name (ABC) Given Name ( XYZ) Are they related to sponsor or PA (PA) Relation to sponsor or PA (Sister) Date they met sponsor or PA (YYYY-MM-DD)

Now, my question is for the last part (Date they met), should I write the date she (her sister) met me or met her (PA) ? if met her than should it be PA's DOB since she is her elder sister?

B) Should I send original Nikah nama and translated english notarized or just the copies of them according to the new forms?

If they are related to the sponsor, write the date that they met the PA. If they are related to the PA, write the date that they met the sponsor.
The question is asking if other people know about your relationship. They don't care when your sponsor's own relatives met the sponsor and vice versa

Also, since the checklist doesn't say "original nikkah nama", just send certified copies of both.

It's been 9 days had passed since my husband's BGC was started. How long will it take to process BGC. And what comes next after? No additional documents needed. Thanks

Gosh, I'm so sorry for everyone whose case is being prolonged and extra scrutinized, and for everyone caught up in interviews and sending all these technical documents. I submitted my application almost 7 months ago and my file hasn't even been forwarded to LVO yet! I can imagine how frustrated and confused some people are. Wishing peace and patience upon us all.

OUTLAND approved sponsorship then STUCK in Mississauga ... GATHER HERE ... group for stuck applications

What is the reason for them still having your file in Mississauga? Is the PA not in Pakistan?

Hi Jfk,
I dont know your circumstances but if your wife does not live in the same country as you then you dont have to add her to your medical. First of all if she is here as a pr then after 3 months of her arrival you will get provincial health insurance. Only then you can add her to your work insurance. If she is here but less than 3 month she can only get coverage through private insurance. If she is still in another country then that is pointless.
As far as the bank account goes you can add her to your account but that is also not necessary. But you can put her as your beneficiary on any insurance you got or even at your bank.
We did not have any of those when we went for appeal. Most important in our case was the proof of continuous communication, tones of pictures with friends and family, letters from friends and family and good knowledge about each other, our families, place where we live, culture and history.

What kind of letters from family and friends?
