April 2014 Application

[sjulien]

I am waiting for my new GCMS. It will come on this Friday.
Will update you.

I saw under Eligibility Assessment after Big Underlined Heading of Eligibility...

The only thing I noticed is they opened my file on 2015/01/23..... and dont know what did they done with opening and closing....

Does any one has CounterFoil Required: YES

 

[Amisnic]

Yes, I have "Counterfoil Req" as YES.

I believe folks from visa waiver countries just get a counterfoil rather than passport request to stamp PR

When did you do your medicals and when did the Doctor actually submitted.

I don't know when the Doctor uploaded/submitted our medicals.
We did our medicals on Feb 12. It takes like 18 days to be updated on ECAS.

Counterfoils are for applicants approved for permanent residence not coming visa exempt countries.

 

[Amisnic]

What????

Are you saying that counterfoils are for those who come from countries which are not visa exempt?

If so, that is not true as I come from a visa exempt country and have 'Counterfoil Req" as YES.

Counterfoils are for applicants approved for permanent residence not coming visa exempt countries.

Just got off the phone with CIC.

I am really disappointed as my file is still with "CA Review" where it has been since it went to Ottawa. I just fail to see why it is still there when they already have the police clearances.

May I ask what is CA review ?

I saw my file location is in CEC OFF Review on last GCMS.

 

[Amisnic]

CA Review is Criminality Assessment Review - this is where they do the police checks

Yup! That's the one they stick to your passport. It was removed for visa exempt countries thus you only get CoPR.

You can check this.

You might need to call them and clarify that and you owe VS1987 a big appreciation for bringing this up. ;D

any update guys.

Hey guys.. wanted to check with you ... my gcms notes says "Review required" and the Due Date is 6-june-2015. I just went through the notes again yesterday after reading on the forum about the due date concept which i admit i had completely missed before. It seems that they have written the due date exactly one year from the date when i received my AOR. (04-JUN-2014)

my question is that is it possible that they will pick my file for processing before that and is there anyone who also had a "review required" and then got the RPRF request or the PPR request before their due date as mentioned in the GCMS notes..??

because that would really suck if i have to wait till 6th june for them to pick up my file.
