I received a response to my ATIP request today. A lengthy document, but mostly repetitive. For me, I was mostly interested in whether they have received my FP results from the RCMP and when it was received.

One of the interesting things in the report was that the various stages of eligibility assessments the application goes through have due dates. Almost all of them have October 27, 2018 as the due date. These are assessments for criminality, language, prohibitions, residence, knowledge, and security clearance. Most of them, for me, show as "Not Started", with criminality as being "In Progress". The primary office for my application is Scarborough, secondary is St. Clair.

The criminality check prompted the FP request, for which they received the report from RCMP on December 15th. The due date on this is actually February 4th, so it'll be interesting to see if anything changes after that date.

As it's clear this is a computer-generated and likely an automated process, I'm going to file another request. The strange thing is that this ATIP request was made on December 20th, the "report generation" date was December 21st, but I only received it today, meeting their 30-day requirement. Strange in that if it was generated a month ago, electronically, why wouldn't it have been sent to me sooner? Who knows.
Thanks for sharing! I think the 30 day stipulation in order to discourage applicants from submitting a request everyday or too frequently.

I've heard if you make multiple requests within the 30 day period, the latest one overrides the previous ... I could be wrong about this though.
