I see from the spreadsheet that there are people whose medical results were received in September and October...

    I am in the same boat in terms of timeline. I had submitted the PCCs both on MyCIC and also through Email. Let us keep in touch on the progress and hope that we get the PPRs soon.

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    One question about "Background Check" changing to "In Progress" from CPC-Ottawa: I could see cases in the Spreadsheets that applicants were getting PPR the same day or in a week after seeing "Background Check" going to "In Progress", when dealing with CPC-Ottawa. How can background check be...
