Yeah I remember, just before nomination i used to see LDVO website and it was written that PNP applications are finalized in 6 months and i was being happy that ok only matter of nomination. After nomination they kept on changing the processing time from 15 months to 27 and now 29. anyhow we can only wait with patience.
second thing i noticed is that when you login to your ECAS, you see the application process as follows,
Status of your application: Explanation:
1. IN PROCESS Application Received by Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC)
Documentation Verified by CIC
An Interview May be Required
2. WITHDRAWN Application Withdrawn
3. DECISION MADE Medical Results Received by CIC
Approval Status Determined
Permanent Residence Status Determined
4. COMPLETE Applicant Arrives in Canada and is Granted Permanent Residence
This table shows that completion of application includes travelling after PR visa has been issue. So 29 months time includes arriving at the port of entry in Canada. So Visa Expiry time period may be included in this complete processing time. This table also shows that receiving medicals by VO is a part of decision made... so according to my perceptions sometimes VO issue medicals just after receiving application from CIO and after that wait for the response from all countries where they check security and criminality, sometimes they wait for all checks and then send you MR. ALL depend on the response of all the countries you lived for security and criminality from their respective authorities. In this regard, I will say that may be Arab Authorities are slow because they need Arabic translation so may be a bit delay, and pakistani authorities are ignorant and workless.
This i am sure because one of my friend has sent for verification of his Licensing in health care and when health authorities received letter for verification they lost the letter somewhere, in the end there was tremendous delay in his application.
so hope for best. wait more and you get more like Canada Dream country to live.
