*** September 2020 - Outland Spousal (Family Class) Sponsorship ***

[jonesy]

Hi everyone,
Wife and I are moving top Canada 16 October.

What documents do we NEED to bring with for the PR office?
Hoping someone has had some experience.

We will of course bring all the CoPR documents received, and passport, and proof of vaccinations.
Proof of funds is another thing we will print and take with, but are there any other obvious things we should ensure we take with?

Thanks y'all!

Not really! Anyone in Canada can get for free and outside Canada has to pay $5.

I believe only a Canadian citizens can apply for GCMS, is that right? How do I start with that, if I may ask?

I received my pre-arrival letter last night!

Just got back the passport with visa, however, it seems the photo is not attached to the visa, is that normal? Do we just need the passport+visa & copr to land at Canada?

Hi All,

Need urgent help !

Is representative assigned at application level or at UCI level. I did not have any representative for my Spousal PR but later my employer applied for my WP through company lawyer who was acting as representative for that application. I Filled representative form my WP application, will it change the contact address and email on my PR application as well?

I could see my lawyer's address in current mailing address on PA side on my PR file on ECAS.

We got "Decision Made" today. My wife has moved to Canada on student visa and we updated the applicant address 3 days ago. One of our friends told us that if the candidate is in Canada (We are Indian), it will get processed faster as there is currently a flight ban from India. This "Decision Made" may or may not be because of that speculation.

Our timeline:
- Sept 26th 2020: Submitted
- March 26th 2021: Medicals and Biometrics Request
- June 13th 2021: Prearrival
- Sept 8th 2021: Decision Made in ECAS

Any idea on what I can expect about PPR? It can take months based on some experiences on this forum but I would appreciate people sharing their experiences. Thank you.

Haven't had any updates since they requested and received biometrics. It's been over 3 months since they requested then, and reason why?

Incompetence and unaccountability would be my guess.

I finally received the Passport Request.

I need some help to deal with the request:

On the letter, besides requesting for copy of the passport and photos, they also asked me to submit "The height and eye colour (for both eyes) for the Principal Applicant and all of his accompanying dependants".

Do I simple write on a piece of paper this information? Or is there a form that I need to fill in?

Thanks.

Hello, I applied for my husband to come last year and haven't heard back yet, his medical and biometrics were approved April 1st. I am now alone and need him to come. Can I apply for a visitor visa and hope that we can wait for some news together. If he does come will I have to change my application from "outside Canada" to "inside"? Im very lost and cannot wait any longer. We have been apart for more than 6 years now.

have you sent out passport yet? it took about a week for my husband to get his COPR… he didnt have to sent passport… just a passport copy

Hi, I received PPR, but I am confused about how to submit. I only need to submit a passport copy. Did you have to send through the VFS service or is that only for sending an actual passport?

I just made my own word file where I put my name, date of birth and eye color with height.
