This is really stupid on there part. wht more security checks they want to do? my employer is like.. you want to take off take now because when work will get more busy than he can give me off. security checks?? what is police clearnace for? if a person has come to canada that means he passed security only than he came...... stupid process.
I am not sure about you and but my passport got few small trips to countries which we do not mention as they are for one week or two weeks trips....

I am assuming that they wanted to be clear before issuing PR.
but I may be wrong.

but in this forum some one mentioned that packages sent in Feb to till march mid were misplaced and they confirmed they are working on them now..
if this is true we should be hearing in the next week......
if they are doing security checks again...then god knows when we get passports back...

but atleast they can reply to email saying ok this is what the status is or something etc...
but they are just sitting like a dummy. no effect at all.
I am not saying give me passport right now. All i am asking is please advise why so much of long wait (2 months +)
it looks like replying to mails are carried in a round robin...if they reply to your first mail they won't reply to your second unless they are expecting some answers from you.....they only reply once they finish replying others mail....

this is my understanding...but I observed that they in general send templates...not real answers to our queries...

some one said that they are checkng onsites as well to insure tht person is working over there or not. and its been heard that canadian prime minister is saying NO more PNPs and PRs now. so they are checking even after PPR requests

Did Cpp-o contacted anyone's employer ?
I do not think they will contact your employer at this stage....
when I said security check they might be checking with other agencies regarding your short travel history which you did not mentioned in the application... not employment history...

Mee too..I went on vacation for a month..and there are short trips on Business...

I am composing a mail to my MP...my MP was not useful so far in my earlier requests..but let me try..

I suggest you also do the same if you are in Canada....that is only our option as of now....

Sorry to contradict you here.. One of my friends after submitting his application, had a month long trip to a "not so friendly" country in North America's point of view. But still got his PP returned in two weeks. I think our passports were misplaced or our files were opened after 3-4 weeks. It's just there is no standard process in place at CPP-O to handle the passports going in there.

do not be sorry...that is one possibility I was talking I am not sure about that.
I wish your theory is correct mine is wrong....if they have misplaced they will at least processes after they found..

I suggest you all to write an High importance e-mail to your MP....probably at lease we get some answers from any one MP....

Thanks, seems they opened my package on Apr 16, means my passport was in the mailing room for almost one month, and they just spent 3 days to stamp the visa! :mad:
