I have to say that there is some problem in communication between IRCC and applicants. For me, BGNA changes to BGIP and then PPR in one day, which I assume IRCC actually did background check before changing the status online.

Don't worry. If the duration between your MR and BGIP is longer, the time between BGIP and PPR will be shorter (sometime even in one day). Prepare your photos and get ready to be a PR very soon.

Calling CIC is not necessary if you do not have any questions and issues to solve. It will not affect (slow or speed up) your application at all. Each batches of applications have their own deadline. The average speed is depended on Application time, specific speed is depended on complexity of...

The reason IRCC needs the passport is to stamp the one-time entry immigrant visa. It is NOT REQUIRED for visa-exempt countries so I assume you should send ONLY your passport. Also, ALL of you will need to take photo, IRCC needs it for your Confirmation of Permanent Residence (CoPR) papers (and...

You have to call at the time they just sit down and begin their work, which means Eastern Time 8:00 A.M, dial the number @ 7:58 AM, because those automatic nonsense will takes a few minutes.

Your are welcome. I have heard that that IRCC (formerly known as CIC) does have "deadline" according to the application procedure. They are trying to control the process within the current 18-month timeline. So be patient if you have a non-complicated application.

Hello everyone. I am an August 16, 2016 Inland skilled worker MPNP applicant. AOR Dec, 2016; MR Nov, 2017; BGIP and PPR Feb 1, 2018; DM Feb 10, 2018; CoPR and passport back Feb 13, 2018. Landed this morning (Feb 14, 2018) by doing a flag-poling @ Emerson. My work permit is expiring soon so I...

Totally normal. Don't worry.

That is great! It is pretty fast. Congrats! I am a same day applicant as you. BGIP and PPR on Feb 1, Passport delivered Feb 5.

August 17, 2016 applicant got BGIP and PPR yesterday.

Congrats! You will certainly receive your passport and confirmation letter w/i this week.

I hope so. I am still optimistic as IRCC is still processing (though very slow) according to their 18 months timeline.

Same here. August 17 applicant. My friend is August 2, already get confirmation of PR.

Negative. Clearly IRCC hasn't started late-August, early September batch yet.

Same here, but no worries. PPR will probably come before February 15. Usually the duration between BGIP and PPR is no more than 2 wks.

Usually only by email. No worries.

I am not so sure about the reply CIC gave you because not all September applicants are in the same batch. I heard that CIC have their own "deadline" dealing with different batches of applications. Let us be a little bit optimistic and hope Late August and early September applicants could get DM...

From timeline of my friends who applied around 1 month before me, I assume we will get PPR in less than 1 month after BG N/A changes to BGIP. Mid or late February I assume.

2 months sounds correct. I have friends getting their PR card in 2~3 months average.

We are on exact same page. I will probably apply the extension, and ask for refund when I get PPR which will come around mid February.
