For me, 6-7 months for background check
No one has any update on October?
Question: Now that they're doing the background check, when can I expect my husband to be approved as sponsor to then send my application to MIFI for the Quebec process?

That would be part of the eligibility process, separate from the background check. We are also still waiting for our eligibility check to start. (We are not in QC, though.) I wonder if you will get yours around the same time as us since our other dates have lined up recently. Maybe our applications are with the same officer.

That could very much be the case. Well, good for you not being in Quebec since apparently this will add a total of 1 year to the process
