    CRS score is verified multiple times during the whole process. R10 is NOT where CRS score is calculated. R10 is only completeness check. A11.2 is where CRS score would be initially done by an anlayst. It should happen several weeks after R10. CRS score would be verified again by a more senior...

    That's not enough information to say. It can be IP1...it can be IP2. The status based on your MyCIC profile is not enough to say what status you're in.

    It is passed. Because of confidentiality (has to do with CSIS), the status is either Not Started or Empty for Security.

    The photo is used for your PR card. There's a standard to that photo. When you submit your photo for your express entry, there's no strict guideline to it. PR Card does. It's like a passport photo. Hope that answers your question :)

    I hear you man! I felt like that until i got PPR. At this point, NA means that everything you've given to them checks out. The chances of a refusal is very slim. You've passed everything, medical, criminal, eligibility (your CRS points) and security. You're waiting for one final approval by a...

    No that's the status just before IP2. It really depends on your luck. You could be getting IP2 tomorrow or in 2 weeks. Usually at this stage you're waiting for the senior officer to look over the analyst's notes and approve it. Ball-park...maybe PPR in the next 2-14 days (i know that's a long...

    Yeah it's not a PDF...I copied it into Word and did some formatting to shrink it into one page. It's not a big deal the Annex A. They just need to know your current address to return the CoPR

    Yeah i got CoPR today...14 days after they received package (17 days from when i first sent it). But i'm from a visa-exempt countries. Sounds like it takes 21 days or longer for people who need a visa... (This is exclusive to CPC-Ottawa, seems like other VOs around the world are much quicker)...

    Since i'm sending within Canada, they only accepted Canada Post's XpressPost. I found out my profile was approved on MyCIC account, but a day after this there was email notification that there was an update on my profile.

    I am unsure what sort of checks they would make. I am sure they do do checks...my guess is, clerical checks; checks a CBSA agent would do when you enter into Canada (IE: your biography page matching with the info you've sent with your Express Entry Profile, the validity of the passport you sent...

    There is a enormous backlog in the Ottawa VO. On average, it takes 21 days from the VO recieving the passport to the applicant getting it back. 1 week is not that bad... Someone in the Passports to CPC Ottawa- July 2017 thread has read a post where an agent revealed that because of the VO...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa- July 2017

    Looks like they're sending them out in large batches now! And not based on any numbers, but looks like people from visa-exempt countries have a quicker turn-around time. PPR: July 14 Doc Sent: July 15 Doc Received by CPC Ottawa: July 19 Application Approved: July 27 Return Tracker Activated...

    Passports to CPC Ottawa- July 2017

    Just wanted to update my timeline. PPR: July 14 Doc Sent: July 15 Doc Received by CPC Ottawa: July 19 Application Approved: July 27. I'm from a visa exempt country. Should I expect they send the CoPR soon?

    Out of curiosity, does it take less time for people who are from visa exempt countries to get COPR?

    Hi All, What number should I call to get a status update? The CIC Call center? Or would I have more luck emailing them? Just wanted to add my timeline as well. PPR: July 14 Doc Sent: July 15 Doc Received by CPC Ottawa: July 19

    Haha, it's totally normal my friend. I felt anxious this past week as well. I don't think you can really stop worrying until you get the PPR :) It'll be fine! Go out for a walk and enjoy the time with family and friends! It's been almost 3 months since you applied and i am sure many months...
