Man this is insane, I applied in Feb 2011 and I am still waiting for an update, the last time they contacted me was in August 2011 to do the medical, So I have been waiting for 1.5 years for an update, while others are having their application completely in less than 6 month.

This is very wrong. It couldn't `t be our problem that Buffalo closed.
Tell this to your MP, that might help....

Just one day left. How many of you pre Sep, 2011 are left (ignored and neglected) by CIC. This is getting f***ing ludicrous. I have no idea why Ottawa would be processing post July, 2012 applicants before all of us.

No, it's not random. If you look closely, people from July, 2012 onwards are getting PRs in the order the applications were received by CIC. First July, then August, then September and so forth. Another interesting thing to note is the ECAS status of these applicants. It's working just as it is meant to work.
So, in my opinion, July 2012 onwards the processing is not random. On the contrary, it's planned, systematic and most importantly fast.
And of course not 100% of the applications will follow the pattern. There are numerous factors why some will not make it in time. It is part and parcel of any process. And we are talking about CIC here! So we know.

But someone working there should have a single brain cell left and say that people who have been waiting since FEBRUARY 2011 shouldn't be treated like this.

Not everyone in July / August / September are getting PPR, probably those applications are just been selected randomly.

I have a question about requests to submit additional documents. Did you guys/gals send them as you complete them or you sent documents all at the same time( RTPF receipt, updated personal history, Certificate of Employment & others)?
After sending documents i always get an AOR email, did someone get another email after or just the AOR email? I'm just curious if we still have to wait and see again after sending them all what they asked.
I know some will chime in and say after all that, it's the PPR( I hope) :D
