UPDATE WITH MY CASE

After 11 months from submission of full documents and after 10 months from the date my e cas status changed to in process, I received a document request from CHC London yesterday. Letter is dated May 5, 2010. My wife is the principal applicant and CHC asked us to submit photocopies of my (spouse) certificate + transcript of records for my bachelor’s degree. These documents were already submitted to them 11 months ago. Well, I don’t have any choice but to comply. I sent these documents yesterday.

BFD IS NOT WHAT WE THINK IT IS?

In December 2009, I ordred CAIPS notes which I received in January 2010. And from that CAIPS I found out that the “Bring Forward Date’ BFD was set on March 25, 2011. I thought I won’t be hearing anything from them before the BFD but it turned out that the IO opened my file between January 2010 and May 5, 2010. Certainly they did, because they sent us the request for documents.

I DID SOMETHING THAT FORCED THEM TO OPEN MY FILE?

Sometime in the last week of March 2010, I sent them the request to change our intended destination province from Ontario (originally written in our application) to Manitoba. Together with the request, I attached the letter from the College of Registered Nurses of Manitoba (Nursing Regulating Body of Manitoba) that they had assessed my wife’s educational credentials (Bachelor’s degree in Nursing) and found it to be equivalent to that of Canadian Standards and had given me one year to sit for the Canadian Registered Nurse Examination. We asked them to expedite our application to bear the deadline set by CRNM. I think because of this they opened my file way before the BFD set?

ANY OPINION PLEASE…

Why did they ask again the same document which I already had submitted? From today how many months will I receive my medical request? Any opinion will be most welcomed and thanked.
