Application Received March/April/May 2011 Waiting For PPR

[oswald999]

After 13 months in Buffalo our file was transferred to Seattle .We are still waiting.

Have just found out ,that even though they have our passports it will be another month before they look at our file.
WHY DID THEY ASK FOR THEM WHEN THEY ARE NOT GOING TO DO ANYTHING FOR ANOTHER MONTH

Just checked the applicated stautes. They recieved my application on Mar 14, 2011.
However, they didn't update anything on the CIC website for my application status. It still remained as medical exam recieved and then nothing else.

when did you send your medicals ?

Let'e me put more details here, however I didn't keep a record of some of the dates, I can only tell you the month :

I sent all my PR application along with my the finger prints / criminal record check and the PNP confirmation in Feb 2011.
They recieved my application on Mar 14, 2011.
Recieved the letter saying that I need medical check early Sept 2011. (Got that done in three weeks)
Medical check recieved by CIC late Oct 2011.

Didn't hear anything between Nov 2011 to Jan 2012.
Got an email saying that my file got transfer to LA on Feb 9, 2012.

Didn't hear anything for another one month and a half.
Just got the confirmation saying my PR application in completed on Mar 21, 2012; and they require me to send the passport to LA office within 60 days.

I don't know if that would make any different on the processing time as my post-grad working visa is expiring in June 2012.
I was so close to spend another $150 to extend my work visa last week. Is good that I haven't got everything ready last week. Otherwise, I would have wasted $150.
