November 2018 AOR - Join here

[Upasana]

Called CIC last night.
My AOR is 28th Nov.
No update since MEP and. Basic ADR back in the 1st week of Jan.
ADR still shows we are reviewing the additional documents you provided.

Anyway, the agent was polite. He said there is no red flag and things seems ok in the application.
Said eligibility, background, security nothing is completed.
Directly asked if the application haa been touched or not yet..To which he said work is going on for my application.
File is at Ottawa he said. 2 weeks back when I had called Visa Office was Ottawa itself. Does this mean my VO is Ottawa and my file won't get transferred anywhere? Is it good or bad?

Lastly, he also said that mostly I should get a final decision by 6 months timeline but it might also take some more time..There is always a probability that it might cross 6 months.

What should I understand from this over all conversation?

All in place..?

Please advise

Has anyone noticed the bachground check going back to we will let you know once if startes from we are processing?? I am so anxious just checked my status today and it went back to the same thing 14 days remaining..AOR 24th November

Hi Shweta, it happens to some people before getting a final update (ppr email). Just wait for a day and then raise a webform or try calling CIC.

Just a update will do. Dont complicate it for them incase if they need anything they will send you additional document request.

Sometimes to make things easier we send too much information which is not even required and it complicate things further. So just normal update will be ok..

Nothing to stress about it.
Good luck

Thank you!!

The IRCC agents cannot see the file since it’s been transferred. I’ve called twice and both times got the same answer. I just have to send an email to the London office for an update and they will answer within 28 days.

Hey...Are you serious 28 days to reply to email? Testing patience to the core!

I paid our Cost Recovery Fee and RPRF while submitting the PR.
Where do I get my receipt? We went over all our emails in Nov and any email with IRCC, cant find the receipt at all.

I have raised a webform today, any other way we can find the receipt? Are we supposed to be getting it through email and we lost it ?

Hi

My AOR is Nov20th. My CPC is Ottawa.

I ordered first set of GCMS notes on March 14th and received on April 25th (notes created by the officer March 18th). In this first set of notes nothing was started. Eligibility, Security, or Criminality- nothing started.
I called up CIC on April 29th and was told that it’s same nothing has started.

Then I raised a webform on May 1st and got a reply on May 8th that the responsible officer is verifying if my application meets the eligibility requirements. You may be contacted via your account if we need any additional information. Also it was mentioned that background verifications are not in process yet.

I wanted advice on whether I should order one more set of GCMS notes? Or should I wait till the 6 months mark (May 20th) and then order.
If I order right now will it create some kind of suspicion that I am ordering it for the second time?

Hi, for webform, which option did you use to know the latest status of the application.
Regards

That is weird. Raise a webform Shweta. Any chance you had screenshot of the profile page showing In progress?

I have raised a webform..thanks

Aor NOV 30.
Finally the ghost visited my profile too. There was nothing when I checked last night, and I just logged in to my account to see nothing new, but when I logged in, it showed application updated, and my biometrics is finally set as "Completed" instead of "You failed to send your biometrics"

Congrats on that, good news.
Mine is still showing I failed to provide them with biometrics. But your case gives me hope. 14 days to go until 6 months mark.
I am not even hoping tobget ppr by then...
