re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

I sent mine off a week before my IEC expired. As long as they receive your application before the IEC expires it's all good.

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

If you apply via snail mail rather than online then that will give you extra time. Your husband will have implied status as a visitor if his IEC expires before you hear back RE: change of status. I...

I have been the innocent victim of a CIC cock up before.. only mine was my 2nd IEC and so it was the London consulate who did it, not Mississauga. It still managed to put me but a few months though....

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

Did you choose London as the office you wished for it to be processed in? Maybe it is just a mistake they have made?

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

It says the Tuesday thing on the ECAS page before the one where you log in, that's where I got it from. I used it as a way to stop me from obsessively looking every day (it may or may not have...

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

I think it says on ECAS they usually do updates on a Tuesday? .. That is when mine went to DM when it did.



The other person may be me. I was sure I was to be getting conditional PR. Me and my...

Sounds like you got a bit of numpty then! Send in a complaint. I guess it all depends on the officer and maybe even the crossing you use, with some crossings seeing PR Landings more often than...

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

Yeah the story is way too bias. There is a separate thread about it now. Goes to show people just read what they're told and don't actually think about things for themselves. Sad.

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

Have you tried just randomly checking at your local post office to make sure it hasn't been left there without a delivery note being left?

Fingers crossed for you!

re: Timeline For Spousal Sponsorship via London & Inland

The CBSA office I had said it should be fine to cross the border by car. CBSA will recognise the COPR for coming back into Canada and CBP should recognise the COPR as having a status in Canada also.
