Hi guys,
FINALLY! I received the bloody PPR!

Congratulations

Did you try to give a call to CIC call center?

I did not call them, but emailed them twice!no reply! Do you think better to call them?

Hi guys!


What time is usually better to call CIC?

 

[Saph]

For those, who think processing of their application is different compare to others....

FYI:

As you all know I have received PPR two days back...

Actually, last week, I wrote to my local MP quoting my GCMS notes.

I mentioned that my file is in 'appears for visa' state for more thank a month and I have not received ppr.

I also mentioned that I passed eligibility, medicals, criminality and according to call centre my file is complete (which means I beleive security checks are done)

Further, I mentioned that I do understand that CPC processed applications according to the app. date. But, I highlighted the fact that there are applicants, who applied after me received PPR.

Then this week I got PPR...

Not sure whether there is influence of MP or not but looks like there is some...


It is worth applying GCMS notes and also worth quoting it. In the worst case, by MPs enquiry, we can understand whether security checks are done or not.

Hi

Thanks for the information, what do you mean by: my local MP ?

Yes, it is a good idea to call them. You may need to stay in the line or call a few times to get in. But it worth to try. Good luck!

Hello every body,

I have a question regarding my study permit application, I know it is not a question related to PR but I appreciate if you can help me. I have applied for my study permit renewal on March 3th (2015), I received an email on March 26th and one today. The email says "Your application has been updated. Please sign in to your MyCIC account and check your application status and messages for more information." but when I go to my CIC to check status, I do not see any change or message?
Has anyone has the same experience? Do you have any idea what I should do?

Thanks a lot for the reply!
So is normal that we receive update email and there is no update in MYCIC?
How do you know they are working on Feb 1st now?

It happened when my wife applied for the work permit one month ago.
As for the reason, CIC must touch ur application - so the system informs you automatically.
There is no message in the online system since their action such as checking completeness of ur files is not in the list of ones that should be shown in the system.
This is just my theory, and I believe it makes sense.

Right now, u dont have to do anything except waiting patiently.
You will have ur new study permit.....
