No go on the case-specific email I sent almost 2 weeks ago.
Anyone think it's worth trying the "CPCM-FCPAPR" email address to prompt some movement towards sponsor approval?
We've actually gotten prompt, human replies from that address after the additional marriage certificate was added, and it confirmed that all requirements were in on August 27th.
Just getting very frustrated approaching Day 90, and trying not to - I know we're all in the same horrible waiting game.

Congrats. Almost there

Hi there, have you tried phoning them? When I went over the time specified, I gave them a ring and the lady on the phone seemed surprised that we hadn't hear anything (I think we were put in the inland pile rather than outland) She escalated our application and 3 days later we had approval.

Try this number 001-613-944-4000

It cost money from the UK but to me it was a big relief to actually speak to someone who could look straight away at our case.

Good luck!

Hey everyone, with regards to a UK Police Certificate, I'll be sending all my paperwork for Spousal Sponsorship before the end of October. I have a UK police certificate dated 17/1/2014. Do I need to apply for a more recent police certificate, even though I haven't been living in the UK?

Jim Humphries

Yes, you do. It would be considered out-dated in spite of the fact that you are not living there now.

SchnookoLoly

Yep. As per the instructions, the police certificate cannot be more than 3 months old at the time you post your application to CIC.

Cut_Chemist

Damn, all those crimes I've committed in the UK while being out of the country will now appear! That's a joke..

My wife logged into the CIC site today;

I knew it was worth doing anyway just in case!

"In Process" as of September 11th. Funny that it updated today, because I've been checking at least twice a day (even on weekends). Perhaps there is some sort of delay with it updating on the ECAS?

Jim Humphries

Probably a batch "job". Ecas will always be behind GCMS.

SchnookoLoly

Updates done!

Princesstigger

Glad I'm not the only one!
