Hi there,

I applied for my PR October 10th, 2018. Is there a specific group for that date. Also, am I in the right group for updates?
If you type in "October AoR" in Google you will see the group for updates from persons who had AoR dates in October but it really doesn't matter since we're all past the 6 months mark and there isn't a method to the madness for the delays. This group is very active but please read back a few threads to see if any queries you have may have already been answered.

Need your advice on this.. Can u proactively send the reference letter now without them asking for it, in case you missed out on it initially and sent a notarized affidavit in its place initially. My eligibility as per gcms is met.. This is for my current employment for which I submitted an affidavit, however for all my previous employers, I submitted the ref letters as per cic requirement..

Any suggestions, advice would help..
Can I now proactively upload the ref letter or wait for them to ask..
Thanks a tonne

Hi Guys,

Wanted to get your opinions on this:

I am a single applicant, Nov 8th AOR, currently in the US.

Didn't hear anything back from CIC after MEP (Jan 4th). Then last week got a request to submit my fingerprints, nearly 7 months after AOR.

I am going to get that done this week since you need to get an appointment now instead of just walking in.

Anyone else in a similar situation? Does this mean that some progress has been made on my application or is it another delay tactic?

Thank you.

Yes, you can but ensure that it doesn't contradict with anything you have sent. For example, if you gave a LOE stating that your company doesn't give out reference letters and are now sending a reference letter, then there will be a contradiction.

I am in depression now, It has been 7 months, 6 month passed in hope, but this last one went on worrying, overthinking, nightmares etc etc

25 sept, AOR, nothing after medical passed in December.

waiting for GCMS notes,

In my view, my case is quite simple, single applicant, no travel history, single employer, nothing complex.

I can not concentrate on anything, anything means anything, just name it, I can not even watch a 20 minute TV show without stopping it in-between, some of you know, I used to check essays in one of my thread, now, I can't even help others, it's crushing.

got nothing beside negativity :(

Relax people ... Aor Nov 21 with a review required on eligibility ... Had made peace with it from many days ... I am happy and enjoying my life ... If I can do it, so can you .... Your panic attacks will not get you PPR early, infact you guys will deteriorate you mental health... I am reading from many days and people are posting about getting depressed because of it... Be strong and take this wait on your chest like a warrior ...

A professor at my university used to say that such things come from inside: you could have a happy guy who becomes quadriplegic and he would be again happy within a year; another miserable guy who wins a lottery who becomes miserable again in a year.

The moral of the story is maybe you should focus on what's making you depressed. Otherwise, you might get into depression again after a year or two of getting the permanent residence. Canada is a cold and a little harsh place, one needs a lot of patience.

Sorry, I didn't mean to be condescending, just my opinion on such matters recently.

If you eligiblity is met and you don't see a Review comment in the notes by case processing agent, you need not send it.
Buy if you want to know if you can send it or not, yes you can send it.

I'm on same boat too guys. Completing 8 months next week :)

There is nothing really we can do. So I know how it feels. It just sucks to be in this position and honestly it doesn't really get any better and it just gets even worse with each passing day. I have made up my mind that I'm not getting PPR anytime soon and made peace with it :)

It will come when it comes. This journey has been a great learning experience :)
