Many thanks for sharing that. And all the best to you and everyone in this forum :)

Hi punchshp and Sylvia, can you share how you received your PPR. Was it an email or a message in MyCIC? Thanks in advance.

Today my MyCiC Background check status changed from "YOUR APPLICATION IS IN PROGRESS, THE NEXT STEP IS TO CONDUCT BACKGROUND CHECK" to "WE ARE PROCESSING YOUR BACKGROUND CHECK, WE WILL SEND YOU A MESSAGE IF WE NEED MORE INFORMATION". And in ECAS my parents PR status changed to "DECISION MADE"...

Hi punchshp, how long did it take between the status change from "WE ARE PROCESSING YOUR BACKGROUND CHECK, WE WILL SEND YOU A MESSAGE IF WE NEED MORE INFORMATION" to getting your PPR? Thanks.

Hey folks, can someone please advice how do I go about changing the Local visa Office on my parents application? My mom is retiring this August and thereby she will be exiting the country she works in at the moment and moving to India (home country). Her local visa office is Abu Dhabi at the...

Thanks a bunch for sharing. All the best

Thanks Sylvia, please share the time it takes to get your passport back from thier local visa office when its done. Thank you and good luck.

That is excellent news, congrats Sylvia!! Would you be able to post how long it takes for you to get your passport back from Ottawa after you send it in. This will help me plan my parents travel plans. Many thanks.

Yes I did, ECAS still says "In Progress" and the last line says Medicals results received.

I am in a similar situation as you. My parents medicals was submitted in Sep 2016. A few months ago in myCIC status, tha background check changed to the following: Background check: Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check. I contacted...

Hi Sylvia27, so did you get the PPR yet?

That is excellent news, congrats! I got a call from my MP's office yesterday and they told me nothing new. They said my background check and eligibility is still under review. She said that if I want to follow up with MP in a few weeks, I can call them up. Still waiting...

Thanks for sharing this Sylvia, this is excellent news!! I hope they extend my parents medicals too incase background tests take longer than August 2017 for my case. I'm happy for you. +1

Has your background check status changed ever since you approached the MP's office? Where are your parents based? They say background check varies per case. Mine are in Oman, so I guess background check for middle-east folks takes a while. I don't understand why they need to carry out such...

Wow, I hope you don't have to redo medicals. My parents medicals expire in Aug 2017, and chances are if they had to retake the exam, they may not make it the 2nd time.

Thanks Sylvia. I had my appointment too last week. It was quick and easy, as you said. The lady at the MP's office said that background checks are performed by 3rd party (outsourced), so CIC has no control over when that stage may complete and differs case-by-case. That's why she said that some...
