ECAS will update when the medical results have been received.

I had called IRCC before and asked this question. If they find any forms not validated, they said that they will most likely return your application. Even if you include a written explanation as to why you weren’t able to validate the form(s).

If you were not working during that time gap, there is an “unemployed” option in the drop down list you can use.

PA Country: UK Application Sent: September 5th Application Received: September 11th AOR1: October 23rd SA: November 5th Biometrics Request: November 4th Medical Request: November 5th Biometrics Completed: November 12th Medical Passed: November 17th Moved to VO: January 28th (Mississauga)

I sent my application via Xpresspost (Canada Post) and it was received at CPC Sydney in 3 business days. I was able to link my application to my account on the day I received AOR. It only took one try!

The PA on our application is a UK citizen, living in the UK. Which VO will our file be transferred to? London or Mississauga? The tracker shows that it may go to either location, but is there a definite way to find out?

The entire process usually takes about 12 months. You can use the tracker to see what the timeline looks like for others who have submitted their application around the same month: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Gm315tmNKWoywb7PwZBiE67fUmznYQrNhYVWXPXXJBw

Application Sent: September 5th Application Received: September 11th AOR1: October 23rd Just linked my application to my account today. ECAS says in progress as well.

Overlapping events in Schedule A also caused a problem for our application. I had called IRCC and they said that the application would be returned if that were any forms that were not validated. So we removed the event that prevented us from validating the form and wrote an explanation for that...

If you haven’t received your AOR yet, it doesn’t seem very wise to call them and ask about the progress of your application. You will likely receive the guidance to keep waiting for communication from them. They receive thousands of these applications - they will get to yours eventually. Just be...

It looks like it is taking anywhere around 2-4 months for OWP approvals.

Oops! My bad. Courier is the best option then!

I used Canada Post’s Xpresspost service (Ontario to Nova Scotia). It took roughly 3 business days and I received a confirmation of delivery form with the signature with the signatory name. Not sure how much courier deliveries cost, but the Xpresspost parcel envelope was around $35.

Looking at the tracker for outland January applications, it looks like from the time between medical requests and PPR seems to vary from as little as a few weeks to 5-6 months. Hang in there!

You need to wait 6-8 weeks after the marriage gets registered to order a marriage certificate. It will take 15 business days for the certificate to come in the mail and the cost of that is $15. You can also choose the expedited process (premium service) which is 5 business days for the delivery...

I had called IRCC because I had a similar question at the time. The direction I received was to use any previously assigned UCI numbers in any subsequent applications.

True, but the process tends to be very similar. I don’t have the link to the inland specific process (not sure if it even exists) but this tracker document has a lot of information regarding specific timelines and patterns. The “Inland July” tab also has some more information at the bottom of...
