Primary applicant in Canada, Spouse and Kid in India

[KarthikVV]

For Cec, if Primary applicant is in Canada, And Spouse + Kid in India will cause delay in processing time of PR ?

Will it be faster if all primary and dependents in Canada ? Or no difference and no complexity atall ?

Kindly respond. Thank you.

It's not likely to make any difference. The same background/security checks will be conducted whether your spouse is here or there.

Yes it Will be delayed.. The below content is From CIC website
Principal applicants for permanent residents who are in Canada and have dependents abroad will continue to have their applications processed, but delays in processing may occur. However, the principal applicant should not be granted permanent residence if their dependents who are abroad are unable to travel

But i believe its the case because of corona travel restrictions. Under normal circumstances ( without travel restrictions) there should be no delay right ?
Thank you so much for reply.

As of Yesterday June 12, 2020, I believe this travel restriction has been lifted. family of temporary residents can now travel to Canada so they should issue COPR to applicants with outland dependents.
