Inland Application 2011

[venak2]

You called the call centre?  I've been trying to reach them but my calls are always dropped.  Anyway I would expect that with the delay in updating their system we could expect an update in the next 2-3 weeks or so.  Did he tell you something to that effect?

Thanks for the great update!!!!! Know what? I visited that site everyday until yesterday. I was so fed up and decided to stop visiting it from yesterday. Seem like CIC doesn't want me to reveal the update 

Hi canadianwife43 and hatrang.
Thanks for the update. I stopped checking the processing time website a few months ago because I'm tired of seeing "Working on applications received on April 30, 2011".   I think the last time I checked it was sometime in May 2012 and I stopped after that.

Thanks to CIC for updating the processing website. At least now, we'll have a clearer picture of what's going on there.

Good luck everyone.

Hi qw123. Very good observation:)

Well, a lot of forum members asked that question before. I am officially a 2012 applicant. Mine was received Janury 25, 2012.

Updating the inland2011 worksheet is an interesting task, so it's ok for me to do that.
By the way, congrats qw123 on your landing date.

Hi everyone.
Just an update regarding my landing experience.

I landed in CIC Edmonton. It was scheduled at 9:30, we're glad that we were there an hour earlier, we are 3rd on the line ( approx. 20 persons will be landing that morning ). We are called to line up by the security guard to get inside the 1st door & line up again to pay the RPRF & check the PR photo ( for those who are going to land at  CIC Edmonton might as well have your PR photo taken there too, coz they are more accurate in size than walmart ).
Back on the line up, a lady came out & introduce herself & briefly discuss to us the Right of Permanent Resident & few stuff. Then we we're asked to go inside a small room one by one. CIC officer just asked for my hubby's ID & my passport, hand us the COPR & double check if all the spelling & info. are correct. Asked a few questions to me i.e. If I commit any criminal activity recentlty? If I have dependent children? If I received any refusal order to leave Canada? & lastly, If all the information I gave to CIC are true?.

And that's it I finally landed!!! "Congratulations You are now a Permanent Resident or landed Immigrant" CIC officer said.

Ecas updated from DM to Complete.

I landed July 26, 2012, I am expecting to receive my PR card  by the end week of September.

Good luck to all!!!

Congratulations waiting mode!!

I got a question if u have time...I suppose you are gonna start celebrate this amazing moment

I saw from your timeline CIC requested you further docs in March. Well, I applied Sept 2011 and July 2012 CIC requested more evidence of my relationship and because I didn't do my medical exams last year I decided to do them now, hoping I will make step 2 a bit faster.

Did you get step 1 and 2 approved at the same time after u sent more docs?

Thanks Laura ^__^

For your query... I got my AIP ( & asking me to do medical & send PCC), work permit, sponsor approval on March 2012.  I did not get step 1 & 2 approval at the same time.

You have to submit a of proof of relationship right away. Once CIC received them ( hopefully there is no back log in opening additional info. ), your file will be open again & an IO can make a decision by that time & you will get your AIP. And if you can do your medical right away &  will show in there system right away ( hopefully ) you might get stage 1 & 2 approval at the same time.

Thanks for you reply waiting mode.

I received the letter on July 24th and sent everything on August 1st - 1 week only. I couldn't do it any faster.
I also did my medical exams last monday and the doctor told me in 1 week my medicals will be in Ottawa and then Ottawa will sent them to Vegreville.

It's just so frustrating waiting...but what can I do? Just dreaming that the moment in which I will be a Permanent Resident will come soon ))

I hope you will get a reply from CIC soon. It has already been 3 months for you Consider CIC slows down during summer so that might the reason.
I'm trying to be optimistic I really would love to be done by the end of this year.

Let's hope we both get good news soon
