Hi Yulia-2016,

Do you think that the email that I mentioned we got is some sort of positive sign for our case or is it just a generic email that they sent.

Thanks in advance.
at least they are working on it :)

I am also in the same boat. Medicals passed since May 22nd and PCC submitted alongwith other docs before May 22nd.

Nothing so far. Its been quite. Background check not started :(

Ecas has been showing 'Decision Made' now for 3 weeks yet still no change in MyCic, it still shows Background Check in Progress.
Called the Call Centre but they said that they can only access applications if they are being processed in Canada (ours is LVO) Used Webform asking what is going on but no reply yet.
Had a request for photos on the same day as 'Decision Made' which we did.
Anyone else been in a similar situation?

Need help with following questions:
1. How long after the submission of police check will they request the passport to be mailed?

2. how many days will they give you for mailing the passport? When will you receive it back?

My parents ‘s police check will be ready and submitted around Aug 10. And they are thinking of traveling abroad 2 week’s sept 10-24. They worried the passsport request may come prior to their trip.

Any advice? Thanks!

Hi,
Congratulations!!

How long it took from getting request to pay RPRF fees and medicals to get the passport request.

We got request to pay RPRF fees, but at the same time our case is different as my parents had to go for medical furtherance, i.e., sputum test, letters from all the doctors my parents go to telling about their health condition, CT scan, plus x-ray. Everything else is done but x-rays as this needs to be done after 3 months from original.

We got request to pay RPRF fees today.

Thank you in advance.
