Poland. CIC will send you a passport request and you will have to follow the instructions on that letter for your spouse.

Yeah i am waiting for that passport request. Currently, they have put application for outland dependent in India on hold

Guys i called ircc today..agent told me that as there is travel ban going on between india and canada, that’s why application is not moving. He said even though the travel ban will lift in future, still you have to keep patience as we have huge backlog

They should not have huge backlog. They should make decision and release them when travel ban is lifted. Keeping decision to themselves until restrictions are lifted is a reasonable step they should take.

I just got the portal email asking for info.. will keep you posted.

Hi, Is your outand dependant living in India?

Hi, Is your outand dependant living in India?

No.. in Eastern Europe. I got the portal email and it also had something like this in:

• If you or one of your dependants currently live outside Canada, let us know by replying to this message.

Not sure if that will still stop the process.

It seems like Eastern Europe outland dependents are getting some progress. Its the indian applicants that are specifically being blocked

Not sure really.. It says: "If you or one of your dependants currently live outside Canada, let us know by replying to this message"

I have a feeling that since I said my dependent is outside that will stop the process again.

I know..every agents tells you a different story..but i noticed that people who have dependents in countries other than india have started getting response on their applications

I had the same message and they send me PPR for my spouse.

i have seen some Indian applicants as well getting response, moreover if they have huge piled that's what they need to manage as its not our mistake that they are accepting new applicants and ignoring old one, waiting over 14 months

We received an update on the profile yesterday, it looks like an initial letter asking for any changes that needs to be noted. Unfortunately, my wife, who is the principal applicant is here in Nepal visiting for a few months. We had originally applied online and her address is in Canada. Since she is here in Nepal and not in Canada, we suspect that this is going to create complications. We have already informed IRCC twice about her travel. Once before she left Canada and now yesterday after we received the first letter.

First Update:

We are pleased to advise that your application for permanent residence has been approved, and we have issued a confirmation of permanent residence (CoPR) and a permanent resident visa (PRV) counterfoil (if applicable) to you and your identified accompanying dependants. However, in light of current travel restrictions due to COVID-19, you cannot travel to Canada at this time to become a permanent resident. Note that your status as a permanent resident in Canada is not finalized until you have landed in Canada.

Second Update:
Note from the processing office

As the principal applicant, you will be contacted directly by your local IRCC office with regards to your landing process. The below instructions are for your overseas dependent(s) only. All instructions and due dates are to be followed by your dependent(s) only once you (the principal applicant) have become a permanent resident in Canada.

Is the second update is passport request for my spouse?

@shahbaz001 Just give them your details and tell them spouse is not in Canada. They will only create profile for you.

You can tell IRCC using a web form and ask for a PPR for your wife.
