AUGUST 2020 *OUTLAND* SPOUSAL SPONSORSHIP

[rizwan23arif]

Hi I am the sponsor and application was delivered to NS on Aug 12th for outland sponsorship. Any idea how long is it taking to get AOR?

Yes, again, as short as a day or as long as several months (can be up to 3-4 months more also). It's random and no one can certainly predict the exact time.

Certainly not a day. 2-4 months would be a better guess in these times of Covid.

I just need help for this question. I’m PR holder and I applied PR for my wife this October so my question is can I as a sponsor allowed to leave the country ( Canada ). If yes then how long I can be outside of Canada? Thank you.

You must be resident in Canada; you can however leave for short visits. Best to keep to weeks, i.e. under a month (2-3 weeks better).

Hi everyone! Im new here, we submitted our application on 30th of July, couldn't find a thread for July 2020 so joined August instead. We received our AOR just yesterday Nov 3rd and we also received an approval of the sponsor yesterday itself.
Apart from that, just some good news, IRCC has increased its staffing by 66% to work on sponsorship applications! https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.im...processing-times-for-spousal-sponsorship/amp/

We did not however receive the biometrics or medical request... Is that normal?

Thanks!

Wow that is great! Congrats on the process starting! We are still waiting on our AOR - can you share what email it comes from..I get paranoid about emails going to spam! Thanks!

Thank You. I called them they confirmed that they received it but they are also not sure how long will it take to get AOR.

Honestly from what I have read and spoken to people, it is not advisable to leave. You can if needed but not for more than 2 weeks. but still not recommended.
