    CEC - August 2014 application

    I don't think this will matter: I just got my CoPR and completed final processing at immigration; the officer merely asked if I had any dependents or had been refused entry to Canada. Your partner won't count as a dependent, as they are already a Citizen of Canada. Also, you're not sponsoring...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    Likely they batch process everything to save costs. Sunday would make sense, as they advise that ECAS is updated on Tuesday's (which gives them a day to fix any IT issues).

    CEC - August 2014 application

    I think that this is the final stage of the PR process. An Immigration Official (at the border or a CIC office) will inspect your identity documents, ask you a few questions, and then issue PR. Although the decision has been made by CIC's Ottawa office, I guess the Immigration Officer has to...

    No, but they did call my previous employer (who I worked for when applying) for a reference two weeks ago.

    Hi all, I haven't posted much in this forum, but I just got my status updated to "Decision Made" (surprising, since the CIC site advises updates are on Tuesday). Timeline is as follows: We received your application for permanent residence on August 11, 2014. We sent you correspondence...

    CEC - August 2014 application

    Just to add my 10 cents: When I spoke to a Call Centre agent back in December, she advised that the timeline they give (18 months from application submission at the time) is the point at which they - i.e. Call Centre agents - are permitted to submit an enquiry with an immigration officer over a...
