I have been in IP2 for 3 months..I never saw a ghost update,although I stopped checking my CIC acct everytime. I truly hope to receive PPR soon because alot is pending. I hope you are right on receiving it before the notes but in any case I am gonna be hopeful......
If Ip2 means eligibility and criminality psssed and u have hit 3 months mark then probably u r in security screening

I think I have a different opinion. Most of the people here have been in IP2 since november or earlier. Moreover, security not started yet for most people as mentioned. I think it is inaccurate to speculate about security screening when we have not even crossed the 6 month processing time yet. To add more, we can obviously observe that there is a delay in processing applications as seen in June and July AOR's. So no need to draw worrying conclusions.

You are correct. Most of the June and July applicants are stuck at ip2 since October. Security is not started as there has been delay from their side and it doesn’t mean you are in security screening. If you are under security screening, your security would be in progress rather than not started. You need to have patience as most people are receiving pprs after 8 months these days and only handful get before that.

Hi all, I finally got the 'Ready for Visa' email today. As with most of you, it has been tense waiting for this to come through and sometime gutting to hear others coming before you (despite you being happy for them). I have no hints or tips to offer and I feel for those in desperate situations just waiting for the email to arrive. To those still waiting, I hope it won't take much longer and wish you all the best.
You should be able to see my timeline from the signature below if you're interested.

Congratulations. I can't see your signature yet but do you know your VO?

I don't agree about the "most people are receiving pprs after 8 months these" as IRCC announces the 6 months average processing times based on the duration of 80% of applications, this average processing time is updated each week, you can check the IRCC website, so by this trend 80% of people get their PPR within the 6 months.

Hey Everyone

I finally got the PPR Ready for Visa email. I notified CIC I was in Canada at the moment (as a visitor). I just booked a flight back to Belgium because my visitors visa was expiring... I have to send my photos and copy of passport page to Paris. Now my question is: Will I be able to travel back from Canada to Belgium end February after I get the COPR from Paris Visa Office? I would then do the landing when I return (mid April). Tried to call CIC but no agents available..

Congratulations! Did you notify them at the port of entry or through CSE?
I think you can travel after you get your COPR! Why don't you send your passport to Ottawa..I have seen in this forum people asking for a change of VO so they can send their passports to Ottawa since they are in Canada. This is just a suggestion, others can contribute! But keep trying to call the agents they know better.

Hi @Getmeouttahereuk , are you currently both residing and citizen of the UK? I'm also UK FSW-O, July 3rd AOR but still waiting for the email (205 days so far!). Did you raise any notes, GCMS or anything else at all? Another member of our July group @Gruff has the same AOR as me too and will be interested to see that a UK applicant is moving along. Immitracker paints a frustrating picture for most UK FSW-O's.

You check SPAM folder too right? If I were you, I would call and check, just in case. Hope you get your PPR soon!
i cant through . "No agent is available right now" and the call gets disconnected.

Do you know if there is any other way to get hold of an agent?
Thanks
