AOR in January 2017 - Connect Here!

[julientran]

Same

Same here. Are you FSW-I by chance?

No I'm PNP-O. I don't know what Ottawa is waiting for and I don't have the impression they send PPR by batch as it was mentioned.

Your case is similar As mine and my BG is NA as well. if we get it before 13th July then I would say we are lucky. however current trend for PNP Inland suggests that we may have to wait more than 6 months. I think our chances of winning lotto are more than getting PPR. lol JK. I hope we get it soon

Yea. This wait is killing me.
Hoping for the best !!!!!

I tried all numbers provided by the forum such as
1 (888) 242-2100 : that is CIC's number but you can only call this number within Canada, I'm from the US and it won't connect me at all. There is no way unless you call them with a fake Canadian number by using Skype or Google.
1 (800) 622-6232 : that is Service Canada number. They won't give you detailed information and will just offer to email you a link to check your status online.
+1 (613) 944-4000 : that is Global Affairs Canada number, but they have the option to be transferred to CIC by pressing 1 for English, 1 for CIC services, then 1 to be transferred. Your call will be rerouted to (888) 242-2100 and you won't be able to be connected because you're not calling from within Canada. The trick to be connected is to hide your number when you call Global Affairs Canada (by adding *67 if calling from the US, or whatever number in your country), that way when Global Affairs Canada transfers you to CIC, it probably defaults to GAC phone number and you will automatically be connected to CIC.

Now you're connected to CIC you will be required to enter your application number and year of birth then you will hear your information from your account, then at the end you have to press 0 to talk to an agent. You will likely be transferred to an automatic message stating that they are too busy to accept calls due to a high call volume and suggest you to call back later and disconnect your call automatically. The only way to skip that message or even the line is to press 2 at the beginning because there is litterally no wait to speak with a French or bilingual CIC agent.

Hi

Can you please tell me what's your AOR date and which stream ? Thanks

I got PPR you guys!!!

I sent an email to Port of Spain office this morning and then got an email that there is a message in MYCIC.

The subject of the message was "Eligibility Passed" but when I opened it - it was PPR!

Thank you for all your help and I will still be here!!

Congrats! How did you know your CO was POS? I suppose its too let to bother order my GCMS notes. Do you have any idea why they used POS as opposed to Kingston? I'm wondering it's just based on workload or visa class.

Hi, thanks! I emailed CPC Ottawa to ask which visa office my application was and they told me.

I am not sure why POS was used but I have seen where several other Jamaicans got PPR from there.

Maybe Kingston is swamped with other types of applications....

Congratulations! So happy for you. I'm guessing you are Nigerian. Mý AOR was January 14, 2017. Meds Passed late February. Background Check been N.A. since then. My GCMS notes received on June 29 state that my primary office is London and secondary office is Accra. My file was transferred from Ottawa to London on May 18. Criminality passed...ready to finalize but no ppr email yet. So depressed but hopeful. Congratulations once again.

@andy108 thanks for the info but one of the graphs the caption says ( Passport Request by day in June: ) shows passport request for July instead!

another thing PNP inland recently crossed the 157 average and I don't think 157 days is a representative average for us PNP inland! this is my opinion and out of what I see here in the forum,

again thank you

Thank you for the info. I got through, but as you said, the system just repeats, what is already mentioned within the online account.
I hope to get through to an agent on Monday.
