Someone in September page has called CIC and got some information that I thought it is also useful for us. I paste it here:

"Same here... No update... I just called CIC and ask for an update about my application submitted in Sept 2014. He said, the immigration officers are waiting for the clearence of Criminal Background checks for bulk applications submitted in Aug/Sept. I also said, how come Express Entry applicants are getting it within 6 months and he replied he has no update but they are doing everything they can to process it fast. He also confirmed that there are no issues with our applications, its just he can't do anything"

[size=10pt]Immigration Minister John McCallum: 6 challenges he faces[/size]
Syrian refugees, temporary foreign workers, provincial nominees and more among top issues
By Reis Pagtakhan, for CBC News Posted: Nov 04, 2015 8:00 PM CT Last Updated: Nov 04, 2015 8:00 PM CT

Temporary foreign workers

Currently, the federal government only allows temporary foreign workers that are considered "high skilled" to apply for permanent residence. So-called "low skilled" temporary foreign workers do not have a pathway to permanent residence.

The federal government should adopt Manitoba's provincial nominee model, which allows all temporary foreign workers, regardless of skill level, to apply for permanent residency.

ANALYSIS | Justin Trudeau greeted with well wishes but also high expectations on world stage
Private sponsors on hook for some refugee health costs
Manitoba's model recognizes that employers in rural and remote areas have more difficulty recruiting Canadians for positions.

As long as employers prove there are no Canadians or Canadian permanent residents willing and able to take a job, Canada should provide a pathway to permanent residency for these workers.

In implementing the Manitoba model, McCallum would do well to work closely with new Employment Minister MaryAnn Mihychuk of Winnipeg.

Mihychuk was a minister in the provincial government, which administered the Manitoba provincial nominee program.


Prioritizing provincial nominees

Currently, the vast numbers of fast-tracked permanent resident applicants go through the federal government's express entry system.

Express entry: early immigration data shows many already in Canada
Click here for more of CBC's coverage of express entry
Express entry allows individuals selected by the federal government to obtain permanent residency in as little as six months. Meanwhile, the majority of applicants applying to provincial nominee programs must wait years for permanent residency. In some cases, the wait can be over 4½ years.

Canada's provinces and territories have a better understanding of their local job markets. The federal government should immediately place provincial nominees on the same fast-track as express entry applicants.

Hi - Quick question. Can I complete my Medical in advance? I live in Toronto and have the application number? Applied in August 2014 but haven't received any response yet.

With all the delays, I am wondering if it would be better to complete Medical in advance to save some time after they send the request. Please let me know. Thank you.
