I decided to call the call centre AGAIN and try to poke for more info. What prompted this decision was getting ANOTHER set of GCMS notes that said my Eligibility hadn't even been started yet and it's been 6 months.
The lady on the phone put me on hold and looked in to my file and told me my Schedule A hadn't been received, by my PCC had been received. Well that's interesting, because my notes say you have my Schedule A, and the last 4 times I've called you have told me that you have my Schedule A, and I know for a fact I sent it to you because my wife and I triple checked our application was in order before sealing the envelope and mailing it.
MyCIC even says no additional documents are needed! LOL!
Long story short, I had to fill out (really just update the info) another Schedule A and send it in via webform because I had no option to upload via MyCIC.
This was 3 days ago, so if I don't hear any change I'll be calling again Wednesday/Thursday to make sure they received THAT one.
Afterwards, she said my application would be transferred if I met all the eligibility requirements.
Wow. So we have a similar timeline. I sent my Schedule A upfront as well.
- I have called numerous times to confirm that they have our Schedule A. They even gave me a date (Feb 22) of when it was attached to my account.
-MyCIC says the exact same thing.
-Notes should be coming to me by this Wednesday. This will be my first set.
I'm curious as to if I'm in the same situation. It says my eligibility has been started, but ZERO movement. It's been so long. My MP will be getting involved after I get my notes.
They told me the past two times I've called, "It looks like your account has been marked for over seas processing, but that doesn't make sense since you're only a US citizen and this is probably what is causing the hold up." I told this to my MP and they said they would look into it. I then decided to hold off until I get my notes so then they could site my notes when they go to inquire about it. They agreed that would be better than to just go asking based off what the call center employees say.
My MPs office was willing to help since they said that it is strange that a US applicant hasn't heard ANYTHING in almost now 7 months.
We sent everything upfront, all the dates were still good, everything was accepted (PCC, FBI BGC paperwork, Medicals) Everything.
All we have is AOR1 and Medicals passed and 'Eligibility started'
we've heard that Mississauga might be doing the processing?? but you'd think we be told something in regards to that and they would update MyCIC.
either way, I'm pissed off and over this whole thing. It's been over half a year now and I haven't heard shit.
when last year US applicants were seeing CoPR in 3-6 months.
