BUFFALO APPLICANTS - File transferred to other VO due to Buffalo closing down
- Thread starter sharuu
- Start date
my husband is somehow a bit frustrated about our application,he is the main applicant..we have reached 15 month mark and still counting.. 
he contacted his MP yesterday and got a response today..
MP:
In the interim, be advised that the Buffalo office was closed, and files were transferred to a new office in Ottawa. We understand there is a backlog of applications at the new processing centre which will create several months delay in processing all applications, however, we have made an inquiry on your behalf. We will advise you when we have received a response.
"create several months delay in processing all applications" ??? does it mean that it will took a couple of months more because of that closure???
we'll still wait for another response probably next week for they made inquiry in our behalf.. still hoping for some good news because this long wait is really so depressing... :'(

From the date they receive your file. If you are so worried, why dont you get GCMS notes?cvd222 said:
All 2011 applicants are in the same boat as yourself. People have had their medicals expired, due dates crossed and it has been more than a year since AOR. It has been nearly 19 months for myself. You can try getting GCMS Notes, but other than that just wait!vico said:my husband is somehow a bit frustrated about our application,he is the main applicant..we have reached 15 month mark and still counting..

I know people say that Ottawa has finally started working, well, not for 2011 applicants. Its issuing PPR but only for 2012 applicants. I still think that there will be a time when a flurry of PPRs will come for 2011 applicant. It could be October November or any month for that matter.
Just waiting for that time to come ... Staying Positive!

In the GCMS email it says:
You also have the right to request the correction of any errors or omissions you believe to exist in any of the enclosed information which originated with Citizenship and Immigration Canada. Should you wish to make such a request, please complete the enclosed Record Correction Request Form and return it to the office that processed your request, along with documentary evidence supporting the correction. If your request for correction is not accepted for any reason, a notation will be attached to your file regarding the error or omission you believe it contains.
Nothing is enclosed except the GCMS notes. Should I just send an email to CPP-O with the updated information and documents?

well one QSW got PPR who applied and went into process roughly 2 weeks ahead of me. Can that be on any significance....not too sure but we will see...
good luck everyone
When did you go In process? Wasnt it the same time I did? I think in process for me doesnt mean much because it doesnt lead to a due date. Buffalo just put us In process, and put 1 year from AOR as due date and transferred it. So, I dont think its much of a relevance actually. What matters is what the VO at Ottawa does
When did his file got transferred to Ottawa?

Hi Sharu,sharuu said:
his timeline
- We received your application on Sep 10, 2011.
- We started processing your application on May 2, 2012
- Medicals results received.
more importantly it was a QSW and September applicant.
not sure when his file was transferred....I will order my GCMS notes if my timeline goes above 14 months.
but this timeline is exactly like mine, just that i am about 2 weeks behind him.....closest case I can see so far...
Actually thats a good comparison for your case. I have seen August-sept applicants getting PPR so you shouldnt be that far off. It has been a year for you and I think your file shouldnt be that far off with PPR. Its time to get excited buddysuduko said:
I have friends in post sept QSW PPRs. the ones sent to Buffalo directly and not Sidney.
No news in their cases yet.
I will have my Medicals expired this week
