I submitted my WP last Feb 20, my PR app last May 1. Got my WP Visa last Sept 30. My PR app was returned due to missing docs. When I arrived at Canada under WP, I re submitted my PR docs Nov 6(here in NBCanada) and was received by IRCClast Nov 7 and had medical request for my son and wife last Nov 28. Dec 4 they had medicals, and Dec 13 my GCKEY was updated and it was Medical passed. Also on that day, pre-arrival Letter was emailed to me. Now, awaiting for the next step.
It's so clear, thanks for your sharing. I sent my WP app last week, and it shows in processing for a few days, I still can't link my paper application with GCkey

Yes, for PR application, when I got an email from IRCC that I have a message on my Gckey account, that’s the time also I got my AOR and MR simultaneously from them.

Nope. The Abu Dhabi Immigration just emailed me for my MR. But I was not able to link my WP to my gckey, only my PR application.

Dont worry. Many were not able to link. Just wait for your medical request. They start working on the application it might take some time.
you mean the work permit application? So I will be informed to take medical check after I submit my WP? I hear that the medical check has one year expiry date, so no need to do it during PR process as I submit them at the same time?

I can see a trend. All those who received their work permit or in process are getting this letter in a week or two of the aor. Has your background check started?
Yes my status in the gckey states that background Check is on process. That was the status of my application when I received my pre-arrival letter from IRCC last week.

Hi Guys,

Need an answer here. On the cic website it says that applicants must complete 1560hrs of work experience in NOC C, if applying under intermediate skilled worker (NOC C) in Atlantic Pilot Program. This means 1560hrs must be completed in Canada, and if you do not complete 1560hrs then you do not get PR?

What is the average time frame? After you land in Canada with TWP, you apply for PR after a month or so. So you get PR in 3-4-6 months? Or you will receive it after a year when you complete 1560hrs?

PLease clarify this to me if I am misunderstanding anything!
Thanks
