Montreal Visa Office ... Let's connect here.

[Ravitej_18]

are you inland candidate?

yes

 

[pathwaytofreedom]

I did. I think it’s deleted now.

Where have you been. Long time no see!

Very much here! Patiently waiting for Montreal to take some action on our application haha.

 

[Param90]

I have a doubt after reading few comments here.

Ready to finalize this statement exists in my Case Analyst comments - GCMS notes as well but I thought it is for the RPRF or something else. What exactly this means? My eligibility is Recommended Pass but Security and Criminality is Not Started yet.

Hmm now I'm wondering if ready to finalize is like a heading. And we should see yes or ok in front of it to see the status. May be it's a field in their system and they need to choose yes for it to be considered ready to finalize. I will get my notes next week and I can confirm then whether I see that in my notes as well. Or may be some people who already have notes can confirm .

 

[Param90]

Right! Below are the lines before and after Ready to finalize from my GCMS.

A11.2: Appears Met R75: FSW MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS - Appears Met R76: SELECTION CRITERIA - FSW POINTS/Funds: Appears Met FSW points total: 77 Ready to Finalize RPRF: Complete.

The sections ends there.

Yeah I think just like after RPRF there is complete we should see something after ready to finalize.

 

[Arminder_1985]

It's in mostly all the GCMS notes. Ready to finalize does not mean anything It was updated in my application on 12th June and nothing till now, so....

Yeah I think it's just field name. We had one person who got PPR already but his notes are on way. May be he could throw some light. I plan to research on GCMS notes once I receive mine.

You are right ! This only means that RPRF is paid and verified. I dont think it has any more significance.

 

[Param90]

Yes... There is no much importance to the statement. I was wondering on it when people said Ready to finalize.
Anyways as there is some movement in Montreal PPR's , let's hope for the best now.

 

[cansha]

Yeah. I was hoping for a few in this week as many April candidates have hit the 5th month mark now. Hopefully next week is better for all of Montreal April candidates. At least Montreal is consistent that they don’t give very quick PPRs like Ottawa. In Ottawa there are candidates from August who have received PPR. So a person from June in Ottawa would feel really sad. Montreal seem to follow the 6 month deadline seriously and gives PPR only around 5/6 month mark to everyone.

@Arpatel91 Did you reach out to your local MP? Has it helped in anyway?

 

[cansha]

Hi All,

This week did not see any PPRs yet. Still half a day to go and sometimes PPR comes on Saturday morning. Hoping we still see a few tomorrow.

Anyhow we will be entering October and lets hope things will be better starting October. Based on cases we have listed here March has 100% PPRs. The largest population we have in Montreal is from April AORs. I have a feeling we will see good progress on them soon. Anyhow Montreal seems much more sequential in processing applications than other visa offices. Any movement in April / may will be good news for June candidates which is the second largest number after April.

Hope next week is great. Wish you all a happy weekend!
