Hello! Newby here...
My AOR is December 20th; Medical passed February 04th; PNP from Ontario, from Brazil; Background checking since March. On June 20th, there was an update on my CIC account reporting that my application is among the 20% that take longer to process. Do you know what exactly does it mean? Already sent two CSE forms and received general answers without any specifics. I don't have a representative in Canada, so I never tried to ask the CIC agents by phone. I just wanna have a clearer perspective regarding the time to better planning my family move (as I have a partner and a child). How much time do you guess my process can take? Thanks!
Hi

I have the same dates for AOR. I also raised queries but nothing useful came out of it. You can try raising a GCMS note

What is meant by a "review required"
They are not happy with something or they need further looking into something in your application, this is what takes the extra time. Don’t worry many people go through it, if they need more documents or an explanation they will contact you. They just doing a more in-depth review of your application

I have the same dates, am waiting too. Raised queries through the web forms multiple times but nothing useful came out of it.

December applicant and yet my application is still being processed. In my notes it says review required. The person in charge of processing my application has already completed their part and now transferred it to whoever needs to review it for whatever reason.
After, reading so many forums here I have come to understand that how fast your application goes is very dependent on the office and also the person in charge of it. There is many dysfunctionalities that they need to work on.
It makes no sense to see some people applying after you and getting responses before you. They claim that if your application is incomplete it will delay the process. But they don't mention that even complete applications are delayed to due their dysfunctionality.

They tell you to inquire about your application if it has exceeded the 6 months. When you do so, they send you a generic response.
That is just the sad truth of how they function. I guess all we can do is wait.

Hi all,

My AOR is Dec 1, 2018 (CEC-INLAND). I applied through a consultant, about a month ago I called IRCC and then told me all my information was verified and that I had to go to an office to complete the process. I waited patiently and today I got a letter today Re: "Final determination for permanent Resident Interview", the interview is in two weeks. According to what I have read in other threads it takes about 10 min and I will save me from sending passports to Ottawa. I will let you guys know how it goes.

Hi, congratulation on your approval. I am also December AOR and still waiting.
Did you get the letter through personal email, express entry account or by mail?
I recently moved from my old address and don't want to miss any communication if I get mail at my old address ( but i have already sent cic my new address).
All the best for your landing appointment.

Thank you so much for the good wishes. My consultant received the email with the instructions and she forwarded to me. And actually we found out through the web form inquiry that they had sent her an email on July and for reason didn't get it or deleted it (I don't know). I would recommend checking the junk box every day.

Its unbelievable, over a year of processing and we don't even seem to be their priority.
They had extended my medicals, so I didn't have to do it again.
