Application Received March/April/May 2011 Waiting For PPR

[sim24]

How long does it take for GCMS notes ? I applied on first week of July.

30 days if u ask for em via email!

 

[sim24]

Sim, you will get it very soon, I am jealous

Did you send to the general inquiry or the specific one to LA? did you get auto reply before you get their reply?

Did you ever get auto reply after you sent email to immigration office (including buffalo)? If they send us auto reply, it that means they will not reply us back? otherwise, they will check case for us first, and then reply us directly without auto reply?

Please let me know, thanks!

I did a general enquiry and I got an automated response the same day and automated response is just to confirm that they received our email, It doesn't mean that they are not gonna look into our file. In the automated reply I got from LA it was written that they are not gonna respond back if my file is still in processing time but on the contrary, after few days I got an email stating its in queue for review. Hence ,it confirms that they did look into my file. Don't stress out over this bud,JUST email them and it will help.

oh, my god, you are my angel, thank you a billion for writing this detailed message! My friend sent email to ottawa before, and got the auto reply, then nothing else.....so I thought they won't relpy us back if they sent us the auto message.....

After you got auto message, within about how many days they reply you to tell you yours was waiting for review?


I know another person who got the pp back in 11 days from LA after decision made, so yours will be there next week some time. You are so so so nice, so I just searched his timeline for you for your reference

She applied for the GCMS note.
When you then get the answer there where detailed information written to your case.
In ECAS is just basic information.

Thanks! I will probably request a GCMS as well.

My file was transferred to Seattle on may 4 2012

It's the same date as mine. Let's see if we will get our PPR at the same time.

 

[WNIBC]

YES!!!! Another one from Seattle. Congrats dude. Hope we all get ours asap. At least it's proof, that they are still working.

Yes, that looks like this.
And now it is announced to wait again.
But now it's a pleasant wait.
Everything is okay just wait for the visa
My Passport copies have now left Canada.
Maybe the documents will arrive tomorrow the visa office? :

Could you please tell me you know your file in LA so you send your email to LA? Or u send the email to Ottawa and then LA replied u?

I have been waiting 16 months. Since the Buffalo closed I don't even know where my file is right now.

I sent a email to Ottawa, all I got is a auto response.

I got my GCMS last week. Funny, the GCMS was generated on 19-June but I only received it last week.

I couldn't find any mention of Ottawa other than Medical results received by Ottawa HMB. As per the GCMS, my file is still in Buffalo.

I see the following under eligibility.

Type: Eligibility EC-QC/PNP
Status: Recommend Passed
Status Update: 05/25/2012
Due Date: 08/29/2012

Security - Not Started
Criminality -Not started
Medical - Passed for me, the status is blank for my spouse.

Does anyone know the difference between Criminality and Security check? Many of the sections appear blank for my spouse. I can only think of privacy law of not to disclose medical results of spouse since I applied for GCMS. Does anyone have a similar experience?

I received this reply today from Ottawa.


"Good day

You application was transferred to our office in Ottawa (address below). I have verified your application and it is currently in process. Presently they are conducting background verifications. We appreciate your patience and an agent will contact you if any more documents are required.

Warm Regards, "

They are conducting background verification. Does that mean they are going to take another year or two to check my background?

The reason why they left you spouse's information blank in your GCMS notes is because you did not submit a consent form to the ATIP-CIC and they wouldnt disclose any information aside from yours.

Criminality check, as far as I know, is a process by which CIC needs to make sure that you don't have any record of any serious crimes and offences in the past. That's why they are requiring us to submit police certificate to our home country and other countries that we've been to. But that's just the first stage. As soon as we passed our medical, then they need to do a thorough criminality check but with the help of other agencies such as CSIS,RCMP, etc. This is time consuming as it will take months to do it average is 3 months, including interview, if necessary. but as soon as you pass criminality check, then they will start security check, meaning CIC will see to it that you are not a threat to Canada's public safety. When you pass security check, that will be the time CIC will issue PPR.

Hope that helps.
