do you have a spousal PR application in progress? If yes, is your Application linked with the IRCC page that you log in with GC-Key? I'm just asking cos I'm just about to submit my TRV application.

please did u recieve AOR before submiting ur TRV

No, I didn't.

lekanlaniyan:
wow, that's very good. How was your trip?

Please, kindly share how you applied for the TRV, I also want to give it a try because my SS application is still in progress (Eligibility only) since April 2023.

Thank You.

If your Spousal sponsorship application is aged up to 10 months, my sincere advice would be to wait rather than apply for TRV.

Processing times are currently at 14 months for SS application.

Deciding to apply for TRV would entail all the documents gathering process and ensuring you have PoF.

I applied for TRV in September 2022 and got approved early June 2023. I subsequently travelled to Canada. When my SS is approved, I would either have to return to Nigeria or leave Canada, because I would have to do a physical landing to re-enter Canada. Flight ticket prices ain't cheap these days.

However, if you have only recently submitted your SS application and have received your AoR, it may make sense to apply for TRV.

My thoughts.

Good Day Mr. Nedu, I heard Nairobi, Kenya is super fast.

You might contact @kollytoe: for guidance on how he went about his own submission to VFS, Nairobi, Kenya.

I arrived Canada on a TRV on the 22nd of June. Still awaiting update on Eligibility and Background verification for SS Application.

Donshocker:
Wow. Congratulations

Where would be the best place to send my passport for my TRV.

I'm currently in the UK and have to come back to Nigeria to submit at VFS.

I'm looking for the option that will offer the quickest result to enable me attend a family event at the end of June.

Hello everyone, It's been so quiet here lately, please tell us if you have any updates on your timeline.
You can use this link for tracking the Application status for spousal sponsorship only:
https://prt-srp.apps.cic.gc.ca/en/register.

What is the status of your own application?

Donshocker:
Hi @Nedu19
Any update on your application?

Are your Eligibility and background checks still in progress?

No update yet. Both are still in progress.

Send them an email query.

Eligibility and Background verification are in progress.

Background Verification started showing "In Progress" on the 3rd of April. However, this has not reflected on the timeline.

IRCC seem to be a bit slow on Spousal Sponsorship approvals at the moment.

Do you know if I can query IRCC via a webform eventhough my application is still within processing time for SS?

Baheerah:
Could you please give me the email address you sent the mail to?
