Anyone give any idea how long it takes for ppr after medical

People need to really simply scroll a little bit behind and read because the same questions are asked a million times. Please make a little effort to read.

Hey! Congratulations. You wait is finally over.
Can you tell me what red flags your case that made your husband an interview candidate?

I don't know exactly, may be we didn't go on a honeymoon or my wife stayed in Pakistan for just 4 weeks after our marriage. But the good thing was she came to visit me in November and stayed till March. She was with me when we went for the interview. That's why my visa officer didn't ask many question

can you share what kind of questions were asked from you? did they call your wife as well for an interview after your interview?

Normally after marriage Sponsor (husband or wife) stays with their spouse from 2 to 4 weeks max. Canadian Immigration VO should know and must know we as Canadian Immigrant or Citizen are not on Canadian Govt Grant for living and food. We all really work hard to earn $$ so we can't stay with our spouse more than 2 weeks or max 4 weeks as we need to join our work. Some of us are even on Contract so time we take off we don't get paid!!
if we are working it is also hard to get a lots of vacations or off days from work rather taking risk of losing job.
Plus visiting Pakistan every other 3-4 months takes a lots of $$$ that not every can afford!!
Not sure if your wife stayed with you for 4 weeks that was the Red Flag in the eyes of Immigration officer?
Did VO tell you what was the reason of your interview OR during interview you might have noticed some thing that may triggered you the real reason of your interview call?

are you the PA or sponsor? only the sponsor can apply for notes and the PA has to sign a form to give consent to the sponsor to order these notes on PA's behalf ..

They didn't call my wife, they just asked me to bring her Canadian phone number so they could contact her if the need be. But I took my wife to the interview and I told me Visa office about it, so the visa officer called my wife too and asked her the same questions which he asked to me

The question are already in the spreadsheet and I was surprised why he was asking me these basic questions about our marriage ceremonies (dates, no. of guest, etc.) and my wife's job and other basic questions.

I asked him the reason of my interview but he that a routine interview and I don't need to worry about anything as far as I am telling truth about our relationship
