Traveling while in NA2 and file at the London VO

[flanerie017]

Hi,

I am FSW-O. My timeline is:
AOR: October 19
MEP/IP1: November 8
NA2: November 9
ADNR/FTD: November 30 (London Visa Office)

I am planning to travel to the U.S. on March 1, 2018 to attend a wedding. I am wondering:
1) Is it okay to stay in the U.S. from March 2018 onward until I receive PPR on a visitor visa?
2) Do I need to inform CIC before I travel?
3) Since I am not planning to travel back to my home country after March 1, 2018, would CIC ask me to submit a new FBI PCC and a new PCC from my home country?

My understanding is that the London VO is the slowest and takes 5-6 months to process applications.

1. Yes.
2. No.
3. No.
Any trips after the AOR date don't require you to inform CIC or submit new PCCs.
The only thing you may choose to do is to update your address if you are staying there for an extended period of time so that you can send your documents after the PPR to your local visa office. Even for this, you can wait and update your address after the PPR without any issues. Good Luck!
