I've given up hopes that I will hear ANYTHING from CIC in my lifetime. Hope they give PR to my great great great grand children.

In my lifetime, my only wish is to see the biometrics status updated (done biometrics in Sept, status still shows "not done". Filled a form to tell them, they said its all fine and things don't always get updated)…

We share similar timelines, I got my GCMS notes today, and it's a carbon copy of yours. The due date you explained, how sure are you about it? Because a friend told me its the date the notes were released.
Well my due date was about 1 week after I got my notes. So due date 3 Dec and I got my notes on 26 Nov.
I am not sure what due date means but I think it means that something has to be done in that date. So maybe my file moved to another officer or deparmdepaon my due date. But that's all my guess and nothing else :)

OH NO !! I didn't include them in my application. I don't even know their names. OH NO!

What do I do now?

Can anyone help please?
Just don't type any more texts on the forum and let the day pass :p:D . I am sure you will laugh at your own message tomorrow :D
Watch a movie or read a book for a change. :p Draw something if you are into arts and play music if you love it :D
Focus on work if you still work somewhere and not resigned for Canada dream.
Pardon my French here :)
Just trying to hang by the thin thread of hope and wishing you do the same :)

Cheers!

Just received a ghost update...the 1st one in months! My profile has been silent since MEP which was updated on Sept 24th. Don't really keeping my hopes up just yet coz CIC agent told me my security hadn't started until last Friday! These things are highly unpredictable and it's so hard to keep waiting!

Hello all!
Somehow, I've missed this thread.

So i got the golden mail on 23rd Nov! Submitted the Passports and now waiting with fingers crossed!

My timeline and case history:
I first applied as a single applicant(spouse not accompanying and just hours before the draw!). Got the ITA and then changed application after ITA to spouse accompanying (CRS went up with spouse,so not a problem).

Stream - Express Entry
Family of : 4
ITA - May 23rd 2018
AOR - Aug 18th 2018
MEP - Sep 14th 2018 (not sure but on or around)
IP1 - Sep 15th 2018 (same as above)
IP2 - Not sure
PPR - Nov 23rd 2018

Overall i'm elated with the timeline and can't have any complaints. Express entry is an excellent system by my experience!

Miscellaneous side notes (Might not be useful for current followers of this thread but for the future, for people looking for answers):
1. I only had my Masters degree evaluated, not my bachelor's degree. Accordingly, i didn't mention my bachelor degree in the section on education ( I did include it in the personal history section after ITA).

2. For proof of funds, I showed gift deed and entire funds were received by me AFTER I received my ITA, but, of course, before submission and AOR)

3. My wife used WES and received her ECA in a month, maybe less, while i used IQAS and got it in 2+ months. I'd recommend WES as per my experience.

Good luck for all the others waiting for some good news!!

PS : To avoid the ire of all, I'm going to restrain myself from asking about the probability of rejection now, though I much want to!
Perhaps no need, but still, have my fingers crossed till the PP is in my hand!
