...They might have forget avout my application i guess.
Yeah, I feel the same. I’m Feb 23, 2018. Haven't heard a thing from them since mid January.

A few weeks ago I sent them an email asking for an update and i got a cut and paste generic response, indicating they hadn't even looked at my file.

So i sent another email, and indicated i was not happy that they would deem someone in their fourteenth month now, of receiving a generic response, in light that I was over the twelve months. I asked them for a proper update, pertinent to my application.

I got a response to that inquiry a few minutes ago. It was the exact same cut and paste generic response they previously sent to me.

It is beyond frustrating!

I do not know whats happening. The other stuff they have not asked for any addition documents. If i call them they are saying they are checking my spouse's eligibility. And the response for the email is the same. Than why we have the webform?
I guess we have to wait. I hope you hear something very soon.

Awesome!

They always ask whether you have committed crimes or have been asked to leave Canada (hopefully not :D). They also make you verify everything on your landing document. Pretty routine stuff...

Last date of entry into Canada seems to be a common question as well.

Last week I got dm on sponsor side. They said they sent a letter out on March 20th so I should get this any day now. But how many letters get sent out? What will this letter say? Haven't received AIP or dm on APPLICANT side yet

You should receive AIP, SA, and DM letters. sometimes ppl don't get the DM letter.

Hello all,
I received my GCMS notes today. I have a question. Under notes it says case referred for secondary review. The date for the note was 11th december 2018 That means it has been transferred to local office. When i call CIC last week, they told me that the file is still at mississauga.

No I dont think it means transferring to local office. When I received my gcms notes it said Vancouver office transfer clearly , there was nothing mentioning second review.
