I will be sponsoring my wife for permanent residency. I am aware that the application usually takes 5-6 months to complete.
I'm also aware that they vet the sponsor's application to act as a sponsor before they consider the applicant's application.
Any idea how long it takes CIC to vet the sponsor's application to act as a sponsor?
Ours was about 4 weeks for approval.
An outland application typically takes about a day or two once they open the file
That's usually around 4-5 weeks after they receive it at CIC-M
If there is a problem - it could take longer
By problem I mean like - the welfare check comes back positive or you owe money from social assistence on a previous sponsorship

Just to give you an idea - the CIC website says that the Case Processing Centre in Mississauga is currently assessing sponsor aps received through August 11th - so it's taking about 5 weeks.

Hi RobsLuv - Just a question, please. Where do you find the info above, as to what they are processing by received date? I have not seen that anywhere on the CIC website.
Thanx in advance

OK Thank you. I never looked at the In Canada App processing times, only the Out of Canada. I can see now that they report the times quite differently.
