Canada - Written Authorization Request Status?

[mikeg1 2]

Has anyone received their written authorization for entry into Canada based on the new 'extended family' exemptions?  Specifically long term relationship? 

 

We sent ours in on 10/15/20 and haven't seen anything back, I updated it on 10/26/20 to show proof of Canadian residency (since this was a requirement in the auto reply email but not in the application instruction).  It says '14 days from complete application' so hopefully next week.

I am not clear, are you a permanent resident or is it your extended family member who is resident?

 

We entered by land and used the cbsa App (Apple and Android) and were able to upload our plans and documents.

I'm a US citizen and my fiancé is my extended family and the Canadian citizen.  Per Canadian immigration I need a written authorization confirming I'm an extended family member to enter.

Ok, that makes sense. I came across as the spouse of a Canadian citizen. Slightly different.

Yea you're considered immediate family and don't need the paperwork.
