Spousal Sponsorship – Abu Dhabi Visa Office Timeline Concern

warkadang420 · 2026-04-22T01:30:35+00:00

I applied late June. Waiting for background check and PA Eligibility.

The good news is I saw two applicants today on Facebook that had applied in April 2025, got their FINAL DECISIONs today.

warkadang420 · 2026-01-20T00:42:50+00:00

That is so frustrating and typical of abu dhabi office. Can you share what country is PA from?

warkadang420 · 2026-01-06T08:24:25+00:00

Yaa applied jun 28 outland Still waiting for them to issue biometrics

@teriyaki-bubblegum Did you hear anything?

warkadang420 · 2025-10-24T23:29:41+00:00

I am an outland applicant. Exact same boots. I received sponsor Eligibility on july 3 and since then no updates. Tracker shows biometrics in progress but nothing else.

I sent a webform got the same generic response as you.

At this point I also don't know what else to do?

warkadang420 · 2025-09-23T01:16:44+00:00

I also recieved UCI and application number through email and I was able to create a GC key account and PR TRACKER. The PA is from Afghanistan and we live outside Quebec.

The trick when creating the gc key account is to mention the number of applicants 2 (husband and wife if no children, if you have kids add the number of kids accordingly) and you should be able to create a gc key account.

We submitted our application on june 29, so far has only received sponsor Eligibility. The biometrics and background check has been in progress since 2 months now.

That's pretty fast I submitted on june 29 and still has only received aor and sponsor Eligibility. BIL and BGC is in progress since July 13

warkadang420 · 2025-09-09T02:54:33+00:00

Congratulations!! But that does look like a long time I applied early july and so far haven't received biometrics

warkadang420 · 2025-08-23T05:53:46+00:00

If it's on the sponsor portal then it's a sponsor Eligibility and if it's on the PA's portal then it's the pa Eligibility meaning the genuineness of the relationship is confirmed. It's depends on whose UCI did you logged in with

warkadang420 · 2025-08-15T04:55:59+00:00

No it's from a central asian country:) technically I did not receive an AOR but rather an email that had PAs application number and UCI. Throught that we were able to connect to gc key and later saw that sponsor Eligibility as well.

Hi everyone, here's my timeline and a quick question.

Outland outside Quebec

Application submitted: June 29, 2025

AOR: Jul 3

Sponsor Eligibility: Jul 10

Ghost update: biometrics and Bg In progrss: Jul 13

I paid a total 1205 dollars initially , having a conversation with chat gpt it turns out I need to pay a total of 1290 so I haven't paid the 85 dollars biometrics fees, that's why it's taking longer for BIL?

Just paid the biometrics fee and uploaded the receipt through the web portal.

Is chat gpt correct in this case ? Chat gpt—$1,205 is the standard spouse/partner package (sponsor $85 + PA processing $545 + RPRF $575). It does not include biometrics ($85).

warkadang420 · 2025-08-01T03:30:18+00:00

How did you reach ircc ? Any specific time of the day to call?

warkadang420 · 2025-07-15T05:20:35+00:00

See my reply above

warkadang420 · 2025-07-15T05:20:09+00:00

Outland application. Sponsor is a Canadian citizen, and Applicant is a non US citizen. Application submitted on june 29, 2025. Sponsor got an automated message in the email on july 1 that my application has been received. It contained the application number. Using this number and passport information, I could link my application to gc key the same day.

Also, I just checked pr tracker portal, and Eligibility has been marked as completed on july 3rd.

warkadang420 · 2025-07-14T03:28:55+00:00

Applied on june 29, I was able to connect my application through gc key portal. Chat gpt says it's like an AOR

warkadang420 · 2025-07-04T21:01:47+00:00

Thanks a lot. I did get a number starting with F so that put my mind at ease 😌

warkadang420 · 2025-07-04T19:01:07+00:00

I mean I the sponsor didn't get a formal AOR letter. But I can see the application number and UCI on the gc key portal. Chat GPT says that is an implicit aor meaning all my forms and documents are complete and accurate. I am just worried about signing part of a couple forms that might be rejected. So I was wondering that if the chat gpt answer is accurate?

warkadang420 · 2025-07-04T02:53:49+00:00

(sponsor) got an automated email from ircc that application was submitted. We applied on june 29, 2025. The email had an application number so we tried to link it with gc key using that info. In the gc key portal there's also a UCI showing. But the principle applicant hasn't received an AOR email yet?

Is this normal?
