Let's hope for the best.It makes three of us, then. I'm also wondering if the CAS tool is not working or if it does not suit our cases. I hope all of us get a positive response soon!

Did you submit police certificate using ircc webform ?Hello! This thread has been helpful for me in estimating wait times so I want to provide my data point as well:

Our application was submitted and managed by an immigration lawyer (sponsored by employer) so I don't know the exact details but they said "... police certificates have been sent to the IRCC authorities through our representative account on the (application) portal". I am guessing that when IRCC requests additional documents, there is a place for you to submit them right where you submitted your application. But, since I didn't do it myself, I can't say for sure.Did you submit police certificate using ircc webform ?
I received Pre-arrival letter today. I also had aHello Guys, I am new to this forum. Please see my timeline from CSQ to on-going federal application below:
CSQ received: Dec 7, 2022
Federal applied (online application): Dec 21, 2022
AOR/Application number received by email: Feb 6, 2023
Linked my application to online account: Feb 8, 2023
Medical exam passed: Feb 7, 2023
(in case you might be wondering I didn't receive medical request. I had an upfront medical done for my work permit and I applied it during submitting my federal application)
I have 2 questions regarding the same:
1. I can't see my application status by CAS tool. Is it applicable for QSW applications?
2. My IRCC account still shows that my background check is still in process. I know application processing time varies case to case, but what are the usual processing times these days just to have an idea.
Hey guys, I received Pre-arrival letter today after a ghost update yesterday.We're on the same boat. Keep posted.

My account still shows "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements". What about you?Hi! Thank you for sharing your timeline. I am in a similar situation (outlander from UAE).

Same here! However, I haven't received the pre-arrival letter yet though. I'm guessing that having received it indicates that processing have actually started on yours.My account still shows "We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements". What about you?
Hopefully! One of my friend got her 1st email 1 week after receiving the pre-arival letter. So i am hopeful although the timeline for everyone differs.Same here!

That's wonderful! What's your friend's timeline if I may ask?Hopefully! One of my friend got her 1st email 1 week after receiving the pre-arival letter. So i am hopeful although the timeline for everyone differs.

In general, the background check is the step that often takes a while. Having already received CSQ technically makes the person eligible for the program as it were .
It was pretty fast! Fingers crossed for us to follow suit . Let's keep one another updated through this thread...all the very best!CSQ Recieved: 20-Oct-2022

Federal doesn't need language certificates.Hi everyone,
I'm in the process of applying at the federal level as a QSW, I've already received my CSQ. For the document checklist (IMM5690e), number 12, Proof of Language Proficiency states that it accepts IELTS, CELPIP or TEF. I took the TEFAQ (C1 Oral, B2 Listening) which was accepted by Quebec.
I see that TEFAQ isn't on the list, but I'm really hoping that doesn't mean that I would have to take a different language exam for the federal application....
Is there something I'm missing?
Thanks!!
PTM
Really? IMM5690 has it on the checklist though (number 12): https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/migration/ircc/english/pdf/kits/forms/imm5690e.pdfFederal doesn't need language certificates.
