>>>>>>>>>APRIL 2020 AoR Discussion<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

[sm07]

@legalfalcon - I am FSW-PNP applicant
AOR - May 20th
Medical Passed - July 10th
Biometrics - July 26st
RPRF Request - August 14th

Raised a webform on October 15th and received reply that - eligibility verification is passed, security has not started yet and criminality verification in progress.

I am expecting that I will receive COPR around January 2021. My medical is valid till June 26th 2021. As far I know - my COPR date will be valid to June 26th 2021. But the problem is my wife is pregnant and we are living in USA (Indian Citizen). Even I receive COPR in January 2021, I would not make a travel for landing in February 2021. My wife's possible pregnancy date scheduled at May 2021. I have some questions about possible future scenario -

1. How do I add my expecting child? Does the baby require medical?
2. My expecting baby will be US citizen. Does he/she require to include as my dependent in application? Or he/she can make travel with US passport?


I WILL ENCOURAGE OTHERS to add their valuable experiences.

@legalfalcon, asking for your wisdom if you can

Three of us (JayTheGreat, kwintin and myself) are in the following situation :
- GCMS notes stating application is approved since nearly 2 months, in COVID-19 RFV groups
- No update on the GCKey website, still pending
- No golden emails yet

Any idea as why it could be that way ? Are there specific steps once it reads "application approved" in GCMS ? Any reason local visa office could be involved as well ?

Thanks in advance for your help on that one (and thanks, on behalf of many here, for all the support you provide!)

Regards,

After the GCMS notes say the application is approved, all IRCC has to do is send a PPR if you re outland and from a non-visa exempt country. If you are inland applicant then you will receive a COPR by email. However, many inland applicants left Canada and never bothered to update their address. some of them were sent COPR assuming that they were in Canada. When a COPR is sent, all other existing visas are cancelled as the applicant is not a PR. Subsequently they contacted IRCC informing that they need a PRTD or a PR visa to travel.

Since the high number of such incidents IRCC has stopped sending any COPRs to inlands.

If you are outland, then too not many are getting PPR. These who are getting are subject to the processing conditions of your country of residence.

The GCKey will continue to show in progress until your COPR is generated.

If your security has not yet started, then your eligibility is not conclusively passed.

To read on webform responses see https://bit.ly/3kBoFrS

1. To add a new born you will have to send a webform. IRCC will send you a list of the form you require. Along with the forms, you will have to provide the new born child's passport and medicals.

2. yes. If you want your child to be a Canadian PR, they have to be added to the application.

@legalfalcon thanks a lot for the feedback!
So from my understanding of your explainations :
- I note that IRCC do not issue PPR anymore (or sporadically) given the number incidents (non received documents) for inlands that left during COVID, but also for outland applicants ;
- I also note that, from now on, all we have to wait for is IRCC to go through with the application, i.e. sending a golden email and/or updating on GCKey

Given we are outlands, would you advise us to send an email to IRCC, quoting the GCMS notes ("application approved as of Sept 29th") and ask for an update/what happens next/why it's not updated on GCKey yet ?

I ask because, so far, I have not been very satisfied with the rather standardized answers from IRCC, that tend not to say too much about the application in itself / ignore some of our questions.

Thanks again,

Best,

Anyone tried calling IRCC lately?

Instead of being placed on hold for an agent, the automated message just tells me to call back and ends the call as there is no agent available. Rather annoying, and has happened on two occasions.

Anyone else experienced this?

Yes same with me. The call gets ended.

Hello Sopima,

Do you see counterfoil/COPR/Document number on GCMS notes ?
We are in similar situation. Approved on Oct 01. But no PPR. VO Ottawa.

Strict action should be taken against false information. Also, it impacts others...

[iptbill]

people help me please

I submitted my webform request to ask about my eAPR status which is overdue (more than 6 months passed) on 7th Nov. More than 9 working days have passed. I have not received any automated response (but they said there is no automated response now) and I have also not received any response at all from IRCC.

What should I do? My job offer in Canada will expire with no response.

Please send help!!!
