Since people are getting vaccinated, restrictions should be lifted soon... maybe in a month or so.

How's your application? Did you get your COPR?
I just hope so. Besides ontario is no testing international travellers.

Waiting for COPR

My brother lives in Toronto. He informed me today that they have imposed curfew there. Not sure how it will effect our applications. I don't know if IRCC allows WFH but this sounds bad. In the sense that the sooner things get back to normal the better but it seems like we are regressing.
Heard that too but don't think it will stop IRCC from working.

I see. Are all GCMS notes by IRCC getting delayed or some are still getting it on and near the timeline of 30 days?

Most are delayed, but some are being released on time. It depends on multiple factors, as in where your application is being processed, the stage it is at and the staffing at IRCC ATIP.

But the trend has been or delays and extensions.

1. If you answered yes to any stat questions, you will see review required, this is just to verify why your visa was refused, was it due to criminality, misrepresentation etc.

2. IRCC will verify your status in Canada, as your UCI number remains the same for all applications. I somes case IRCC may inadvertently issue you a new UCI, which they will have to correct. So check your UCI in your work permit and PR application is it the same?

How guys ... latest update on my end.

AoR 21 oct
MEP/Bil 01 December
Eligibility Passed 06 January

Called today just now, been informed that on the 7th of December, my file has been moved forward to HONGKONG visa office which is my primary visa office now and hence they no longer have any information on their end.

Anyone has any idea what this might imply ?

Thanx in advance guys !
Congrats, moving to the next level.
Most active participant on this thread, you would soon receive your PPR mail, all the best.

Congratulations, did you get an email for this change or you signed in and saw Not Applicable?
There were no emails, no updates, no ghost updates, nothing. It's just updated.

Actually, BGC status is a better indicator. What is yours?
It is still we are processing... I didn't catch any ghost updates either. I am happy because eligibility was an important stage for me.

If it is due to misrepresentation back in 2008, will it an issue? Will PR visa will be refused due to that reason? @legalfalcon please suggest.

I had visa refusal of UK student visa due to my consultants false bank statement submission. I was refused for that. I answered yes to stat question.

Hey @armaanwadhwa , few days back I asked u about the impact of biometrics completion on processing the files as I was planning to go Kathmandu for this , but I am unable to get any appointment there. We both being Indians , I would like to ask for ur suggestion to visit any other country for biometrics where covid protocol is bit lenient. I have tried for Abu Dhabi but their quarantine plans are inhibiting me .

Would really appreciate ur kind thoughts on this .

Hi Guys,

I have an urgent query. I forget to mention about my us tourist visa refusal while filling in the form. Actually, I got the us tourist visa approved when I applied for second time in about two weeks time. What should I do in this case? Should I raise a web form informing about this or is it ok as my visa was approved when applied the second time.

@legalfalcon if you can provide your inputs.
