Hi Happy New Year,
I am a canadian citizen and have sponsored my spouse from overseas. He was approved about 6 months ago and are now waiting for his visa to be processed. I was just curious about the 6 month wait is this normal? How much more time does immigration have to process my case? as the lawyer told me immigration has the right to take 6 months to process my case is there anything I can do after the 6 month period expires? When I ask my immigration officer about my case I am always told the visa is still pending.
Thanks again.

(in reply to: Spousal Sponsorship) Did you apply inland or outland? Inland I think the timeframe is 12 to 18 months until completion and this is the norm. It depends which visa office your spouse needs to go through. If it is one of the busier offices such as Etobicoke, then yes, it can take some time ~ as in months.
If you applied outland, the visa is issued pretty quickly after a decision is made ~ however the length of time it takes to make a decision depends on the visa office you applied through.

(in reply to: Spousal Sponsorship) R U sure that you being the sponsor may have been approved and the letter said file sent to XYZ Visa Post.
I suggest you read the letter you got again.
How on earth could he be approved six months ago and no visa be issued yet? You did provide a medical and proof of no convictions with your application?
Did you get a letter requesting the RPRF or had you paid that at time of application.
SOMETHING DOES NOT MAKE SENSE

To Roy (in reply to: Spousal Sponsorship) I have got RPRF, I have been told my case is approved by the Embassy In Damascus and By the Immigration in Montreal. Ive already submitted the medical and proof of no convictions. Their answer is always next week but as I read through your forum the pending time is 6 months.

(in reply to: Spousal Sponsorship) It takes at least six weeks for CIC to get confirmation your partner took the medical. Either you did the medical and proof of no convictions prior to submitting or after you submitted, which is it?
No that is incorrect. The average processing is suppose to be six months from the time the Visa Posts receive the file. Damascus is suppose to be 3-6 months http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/international/05-fc-spouses.asp
Focus on next week remembering not much work was done over the holidays. Spend your time looking for seat sales on different airlines.
