below is my observations..which might help others who are waiting:-

a) it normally takes 1 yr approx to whole process ..in some cases it varies from 6 months from filing to max 1.5 months
b) keep your eyes on ecas, your email, any letter from embassy..its v important..when u gt update on ecas or email or a letter, ur case is moving..if u dont get any...its possible..ur file is lying unattentive...
c) its no harm to send mail or case specific enquriy to embassy at regular intervals...
d) bfds are important..take a track..
e) its v important to send whatever embassy asks in time it gives..u might not get another chance and embassy cud take their decision...
f) its good to keep track of ur case..and also..pray on the other side...

Are you sure about this??? Coz I remember reading somewhere regarding the process for refund of RPRF fees in case the application is rejected. I hope I'm wrong !!!

Thought for the day ;D

As a child John Lennon asked his mother what life was all about? She answered, being happy.

Later at elementary school Lennon was asked what he wanted to be, when he grew up? He answered, happy.

He was told by his teacher that he didn't understand the assignment, to which Lennon replied, you don't seem to understand life!

The moral of the story is, maybe we should all stop being frustrated today, while waiting to be happy tomorrow. Go out spend sometime with your family and friends and have a great weekend :)

Nice one, thanks Cam : )

I read this somewhere during the last couple of days. It is definitely very sensible and cool!

Hi,

I have some update on my file. It is weird update though. Long story. sorry about that.

I am on work permit here and I have a representative from my employer who applied for WP renewal recently(september 16th). I applied for PR by myself(Dec 24th 2010) and I received a letter from CIC about confirmation. I logged online and checked the status and here is how it was earlier.

We received your application for permanent residence on December 24, 2010. We reviewed your application and sent you a letter on March 9, 2011. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us..

Recently, I have a change in address and at the same time, my employer representative has filed my work permit renewal. Since I have a change in address, I emailed my new address to CIC. Today, I have a status change and the change is:

We received your application for permanent residence on December 24, 2010. We reviewed your application and sent you a letter on March 9, 2011 to <<MY EMPLOYER REPRESENTATIVE ADDRESS>>. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us. If we have sent the letter to the wrong address, contact us.

WP: has to go to representative office.
PR: has to go to my new home address.

CIC messed up addresses for my WP with PR application. I just dont know what should I do now. Please advise.

Thanks,
satya.
