Is this true? I don't know if I've missed it but I don't recall reading that they have an obligation to clear 80% within 6 months and the 20% is just open ended. For me, the 6 months is just been a historical reference on the average turnaround time of applications. That is also why I wonder if we should even get tense as we approach the 6 month mark. I'd be lying if I'd say I'm chill about the wait ('cause I also want to know if I'm accepted or denied) but MAYBE we should not read to much into it? I know, easy to say, hard to do.

Now the text on my time bar changed from "1 day left" to "Your application is taking us longer than usual to process". I´ve just raised a CSE web form. I have never ordered GCMs notes so far, I kind of feel that the decision might arrive before the notes, so I really don't know if I should order them. What's the real advantage of ordering them, aside from trying to calm your own anxiety?

Hello Folks,

Just wanted to share my timeline for PPR.
FSW-O
Country of residence - USA
Indian national
AOR-Nov 4
Med passed - dec 6
IP1 - dec 6
IP2 - Jan 15
PPR - Feb 28

Good luck everyone...

US applicants - any suggestions on how to proceed further . Are you guys mailing over the documents directly to Ottawa CPC ? I am planning to send them over via New York VFS, please suggest if anyone is familiar with NY VFS services.

Thank you.

Did you apply to the New York Office. Can you explain what is the procedure? Do we need to submit any fee or any consent form? Also how much time did it took for them to stamp it?

That’s the same message that’s in my profile and trust me I am feeling anxious too, however base on my last experience with ordering notes, as much as I feel tempted to order a new set I won’t because it will take more than 2 months to arrive and I am sure they will make the decision before that. Ordering notes gives you a clear picture as to everything that has been done to your file, where it went and which officer updated it as well as it tells you if your eligibility criminality and so on is passed or met or needs review. I would tell you to get them if the processing time was a quick one but unfortunately it’s not, but if you feel this will control your anxiety by all means go for it

Current Status on my profile just changed from Submitted to Application/Profile updated, however, there is no change seen on the application dashboard. No email received either. This is the second update on my account in the last 7 days.

AOR - 3 Nov 2018
I hope tomorrow you will receive the magical email all the best
