Hi Guys, I had my inland sponsorship application transferred to Vancouver Admission Office on Nov 26/09. Following is my timeline:
Application Rcv'd in Vegreville: May 29/09
Started processing: June 12/09
Transferred to Vancouver CIC: Nov 26/09
I've been waiting a long time but so far received no mail or phonecall from CIC. Found update only on Ecas. Any body else stuck in the same boat??

I believe it takes 6 MOnths for Vancouver local office to complete your file. You're lucky coz ur in Vancouver. Local office there process it faster than the local offices here in Ontario (which takes 24 months or more)

Thx babyboy... I've already waited 7 mth's & thought of waiting another 5 mth's quite depressing but i guess it is a lot better than waiting 24 mth's (that is scary).

How long it will take from here - now that it's been transferred to Vancouver - depends on why it was transferred. It's way too early for this to be the transfer that happens in preparation for the landing interview . . . typically an inland ap isn't transferred this early unless there's a problem. Did they notify you that you have first stage approval and invite you to apply for a work permit? If not, there's a problem with your ap and it's now sitting in another que, waiting for an IO who will handle whatever the "problem" is. One of the most common reasons that a local office (rather than Vegreville) would be asked to process an ap would be that Vegreville saw need for an interview to verify the "genuine nature" of the relationship. It could also be something as serious as an arrest in your (assuming you're the applicant) background that they need to assess to determine whether it makes you inadmissible, or something as simple as you not having valid temporary status in Canada. You should order your FOSS notes, to see why the application was transferred, and your sponsor can call the CIC Call Centre and ask about the processing timeline for aps transferred to Vancouver. That will give you an idea of how much longer you have to wait before Vancouver will start to assess your application. Edited by RobsLuv - 01 Jan 2010 at 1:56pm |

Thx Robsluv, I had overstayed in canada and currently out of status. That is likely why my file was transferred to Vancouver. What worries me is that vegreville sent a letter out on Nov 26 but neither my lawyer or me received anything. How do i order FOSS from vegreville? Also, your timeline shows your application was refused. Why did they refuse it?
