Great! Is it at least safe to assume that we might get the PPR within this year?
Well, I dont want to wait till next year. There could be something wrong with our application if that happens

If you have ever gotten GCMS Notes, the deadline for the visa is actually 1 year from medicals. I dont think anything should be wrong in our files else we would have known and they would have not waited more than 15 months.

Do you know someone who waited longer and then his/her application just got rejected?

Nope.. for PNP Applicants there are only 2 reasons to get rejected, medical or security checked. So, medical exams have been cleared security check should be the only thing awaiting. But, it seems most applicants from feb-march are waiting so nothing new! :)

Okay. Then we need to wait for GCMS notes to see if our medical and security are fine. Thanks

I already know I passed medical as I have ordered GCMS before. If you ECAS says meds have been received, then you are fine!

sharuu,

you mentioned 15 months. Did it mean from the time CIC received your application, or from the date your medical done? When your medical done?

Yes, my ECAS shows medical results have been received. So that means, my medical is fine? Great!

now, the answer to this question will tell you when you get your PPR:

WHEN DID YOU GET YOUR MEDICAL DONE? THE EXACT DATE, NOT MONTH PLEASE.

You have applied for GCMS, right? Once you get them have a look under Medical section!
