    March 2014 applications-----

    Out of curiosity, if one pays their RPRF fee at the time of submitting the application, do they still receive RPRF request? Also does ECAS reflect any change in status once CIC receive the RPRF fee? Thanks in advance for your replies.

    Is emedical faster?

    Thanks for the clarification. Tried searching for the CIC panelists with emedical enabled but could not find any comprehensive list. All I have right now is the Panel List from CIC's own website but that does not tell whether they are emedical enabled or not.

    CEC Processing times for applications from within Canada

    Any idea of the current processing times if you apply for PR under CEC from within Canada? The CIC website says 13 months but I have heard of a case where the person got his PR in 7 months. Is that true for all/most cases or a rarity? Thanks.
