Keep trying. What I do is, I will keep calling them and after approx 7-8 time they will give me the call back option.

Can anyone reach ircc over the phone? I keep trying but still got the message that I need to call them during office hours.

Hi All,

Please keep us posted if you hear anything about eligibility status for CEC inland. As per my research, atleast for other AORs before September got eligibility status within 3 months but for Sep AOR no one got status till now for cec inland. Hopefully we will hear some good news this week.

As far as I see on this forum, they are starting the eligibility review after 5 months of completion (from AOR). Most of the July applicants are recommended pass in December month by an agent. So the agent finish his/her task 5-6 months of the Applicant's timeline. And the eligibility is in progress for 1st and 2nd week of August AORs. 3rd and 4th week of Aug Aors, probably, eligibility is yet to start. And, finally September AORs, they haven't started the eligibility at all.

The above is my assumption and only applicable for CEC candidates (with more foreign work exp) from Ottawa VO.

Hi All,
I have a question about NOC 2171.
It shows multiple titles under one NOC's maim duties.

NOC 2171

https://noc.esdc.gc.ca/Structure/NocProfile/a94c5bbaa1e9491f8087f4191f0e39b4?objectid=P0s577TQkX6okmm3FtgLOuX34vptuOA0lZFgIxQgfARPL1OUCVv4vqEpjB9pkCjT



*Main duties*
*This group performs some or all of the following duties:*


1.Information systems business analysts and consultants
2.Systems security analysts
3.Information systems quality assurance analysts
4.Systems auditors
Under each of the above title there are certain duties.
1. Should we pick one title and match its duties or
2. bundle up responsibilities of all these titles and consider them as one, and consequently match the responsibilities.

Wrong thread !

This totally depends on your work profile.. your title does not need to exactly match the list you shared.. for most candidates, duties fall in one category.

My status was exact same as yours..as per my call to IRCC on Jan 6, 2020. My AOR is sep 3.

According to me, once we call them we should at least wait for a month to call them back instead of calling them every other week.

I will give them a call again in first week of Feb.

I agree with you . I normally call them after a month like on the 10th as that of the day I gave my Biometric and 5th was my AOR.

Yes. But at-least we can watch IRCC page about which week they are working. I think they will start Sep AOR in another 1 month.
