Scroll down to FAQs and click on Question #1:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/canada/ottawa.asp
What does it mean? :

MI02/03 – All files received between June 26, 2010 and June 30,2012 will be assessed in 2013

Will they be finalized and visa will be issued or they will just review it and start background checks?

I guess it depends on how CIC view the words "assess" and "review". But I just hope CIC is not deliberately displaying semantics, and just get down and take care of business once and for all

I guess so. if you see all family and CEC applications are done ( which are transferred from Buffalo )
if there is a problem with application then they might hold.

at least it says that they will have an update by the date that are mentioned in the table..

good luck..wait another month we will know the truth...

I believe there are no Visa officers in this forum? Everyone on here is waiting (which can be very frustrating sometimes though). So the insight you need is to wait. And you are clearly M01.

If you already submitted an application

Temporary resident applications that have already been submitted at visa offices in Caracas, Detroit or Seattle will continue to be processed to completion at those offices.

All permanent resident applications currently in process at the offices in Detroit, Seattle or Caracas will be transferred to the office now responsible, where processing will resume. Applications previously submitted to the visa office in Caracas will now be processed in Mexico City and those submitted to Seattle or Detroit will be processed by Los Angeles and New York.

Economic and Family Class applications that have already been submitted to the CIO-S or CPC-M and have received positive eligibility will be redirected to the appropriate visa office. Applicants are not required to contact the offices to ensure their application is redirected.

Don't understand why couldn't they finish processing PR applications in those offices, similar to what they are doing with Temporary Residents applications...

When eventually files have to be transferred to LA and NY.Then why on earth would you transfer somebody's file to Detriot few days ago knowing that it will be closed and then same file has to be moved to another center.

Hello folks,

I was again asked to submit FBI report for my spouse which I already did. But the problem here is that report was issued 2 months earlier, does that make any problem? Any ideas? Do I need to request another FBI report or that should be fine? They give me 60 days to submit it. Since I already have one dated back two months back, I posted it. Somewhere I read that FBI report should not be old than 3 months. But I am not perfectly sure. Further suggestions please.
