***DECEMBER 2018 OUTLAND SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP***

[JoshC]

@JoshC Hi, I have a small request


If this baffles you then definetly you have no idea of how incompetant IRCC is

I am sure they have different SOPs for different Agents!

We all have the same issues here, we read the guides and can interpret them differently, I’d imagine you’ve got agents who go by the book and literally follow every single rule.

Whereas others more than likely let certain small things slip due to them not being massive mistakes or issues in the grand scheme of things.

I totally agree and it is indeed a big surprise that the whole app is returned just because an email is written as N/A. Unless IRCC is using automated machine scan to convert those forms to digital IRCC internal documentation, which the machine does not think N/A is a valid email address and rejects it, I could not believe it happens in front of an IRCC officer.

When I submitted the file I never entered email for anyone other than my email address. I used same email address everywhere, i.e. Sponsor's application forms as well as PA's.

I think it is a very good strategy to avoid messing up. I thought about using this when I was filling up my forms but I was afraid of being caught as incorrect information.

Is there anyone who entered n/a for email? Not just left the field empty.

Unfortunately we didn't see the medical request until yesterday so now we only have about 17 days to get it done. The immigration doctor three hours from home books pretty quickly so we will get it done before the 17 days are up. Has anyone had their medical results approved yet?

My wife entered N/A for her mother and father who are not coming with us because they're kind of paranoid and hardheaded and wouldn't share their emails. We did provide emails for her two sisters, though.

Thank you! That's a relief

Hahaha oh how I wish! I actually check GCKey every day but the request for medical came through email before we were able to link to GCKey so we never saw it until my wife went through her junkmail.

Yes many have had medical approved and even AOR2 now ... check this thread from about page 95 onward for some of the latest results

Medicals Passed! Will update the google doc. Good news.
Hope to get some word on the file next week. AOR2 would be NICE!

I will be interested to see if having the medicals in the system prompts your file transfer notification at the very least! Fingers crossed you hear something tomorrow!!! (Our medical appointment is still not for another week )

No, we haven’t heard a thing! Hoping some news comes this week.

To keep PR you need to be in the country for 730 days over the last 5 yrs. Can days before getting PR count toward this number? My wife has spent over 300 days in the country over the last couple of years but I am considering working abroad in the future and am curious. Thanks in advance
