As salaam Malikum,


Brothers and Sisters, recently i talked with my MP and also my lawyer as to whats up with my sponsor case.

My file was recieved on January 27/2012
Transferred on April 26/2012.

MP called me in 3 days and told that my file is in Islamabad and they are currently in process and they told me to bare for couple of more months.
My Lawyer had sent an e-mail and he recieved a phone call 7- 9 days from Islamabad and he told me that the case is in process and they are doing a backround check. I recieved This info back in early November).
Thanks,
laghmani

Found this info online after talking to call center and finding out my file was sent to Ottawa from Mississauga. I am copy pasting the following:

Dont worry twinkle, inshaAllah 2012 cases will be processed in 10 months or less

look, in 2010 CPP-Ottawa did not existed, in 2011 it dealt with appeal cases as u can see here

cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2011/ob305.asp

Processing Appeal Allowed Cases Pilot at Case Processing Pilot-Ottawa

Procedures

CBSA hearings officers will now forward all appeal allowed files to CPP-O at the following address:

Case Processing Pilot - Ottawa
Citizenship and Immigration Canada
219 Laurier Avenue West - 7th floor, section B
Ottawa ON K1A 1L1

The roll-out of the Global Case Management System (GCMS) to all visa offices allows CPP-O to create and/or resume processing these files. As a result of GCMS, CPP-O and the visa offices will all have access to the same electronic file information.

A70(1) obliges an officer to respect the decision of the IAD in re-examining an application. Officers must review the application to determine whether the application meets all other requirements of eligibility and admissibility. In some cases, if there are new grounds of ineligibility or inadmissibility, or grounds that were not assessed in the first decision, the application may be refused again.

The implementation of this pilot project will take place in two phases, as detailed below. The procedures will remain in place for at least two years. An assessment of the pilot will be conducted at the end of the first year.

Phase 1 – File Creation
Period: April 2011 to September 2011



Step

Action



1 CBSA forwards the paper file to CPP-O.



2 CPP-O creates the GCMS file, initiates mandatory checks (security checks only) and forwards the file to the visa office for processing. CPP-O will not communicate with the client or the sponsor during this phase to avoid confusion for the client.


During Phase 1, CPP-O will develop quality assurance tools for this pilot and create guidelines to help triage files into different risk categories, with the assistance of Operational Management and Coordination (OMC) Branch and International Region.

Phase 2 – Full Processing of Cases
Period: September 2011 – April 2012



Step

Action



1 CBSA forwards the paper file to CPP-O.



2 CPP-O creates the GCMS file and initiates mandatory checks (security checks only).



3.a For files with relatively low admissibility risks, CPP-O will process cases to final decision. Permanent Resident Visas and Confirmations of Permanent Residence will be printed at the visa office. CPP-O will retain the file.



3.b For files with complex admissibility risks, the files will be sent to the visa office for processing. CPP-O will not communicate with the client or the sponsor to avoid confusion for the client.


CPP-O will send a copy of the IAD decision to the relevant visa office for those cases which CPP-O will process to final decision.

from May 2012 it started processing PR applications (sponsored) which have low admissibility risks just like it did with appeal cases ,

although after may 2012 almost all cases (70 to 80 %) were sent to CPP - ottawa , you can see that most of 2011 cases (after june) were also processed in 10 to 12 months

My analysis is that as CPP - Ottawa is a pilot (experiment) , we never know may be those 2011 cases whose sponsorship approval came from

Case Processing Pilot - Ottawa
Citizenship and Immigration Canada
219 Laurier Avenue West - 7th floor, section B
Ottawa ON K1A 1L1

and in that letter they say your file is sent to islamabad , IS NOT ACTUALLY IN ISLAMABAD THEY WILL RETAIN IT TILL FINAL DECISION AND THEN SEND IT TO ISLAMABAD FOR VISA ISSUANCE ONLY and will not communicate to clients as they do not want to confuse them
juuuuuuuusssssssttttttt like they did in appeal cases to divide the burden on visa office


so relaxxxxx, wait and see your PPR coming veryyyyyyy sooooooooon inshaAllah

InshaAllah very soon
Aslamualikum every one. I read all posts on this forum daily but not reply. I feel all of u are very intellegent and soft and nice people. But some time u lose ur patience. I know its very very hard to live without ur partner. Lakin hum muslim hain hamara aik Allah par imaan hai aur hamain ya baat kabi nahi bholni chahiya. App sab ko apnay bahan bhai samjtay huya kahna chahoon gi ka yakeen rakhoo iss baat par ka Allah hamaray liya kuch bi galat nahi karta. Wo hum sa 70 maoon sa bi ziyada piyar karta hai to hum us khuda ki muhabat ko dykhtay huya apnay nabi ki taleemat ko dykhtay huya sabar ka daman haath sa kabi nahi chorna chahiya. Aur canada sab jain gay InshaAllah lakin yakeen karoo hamary apnay watan jyasa sakoon wahan nahi ho ga wahan jab hum apnay bachoon ko school byjain gay aur 6 standard ka baad wo hamari betii ya batay ko gays aur lasbians ki taleem dyna shoro kar dain gay to hamary bachoon ka future kiya ho ga. Kiss tarha ka hamaray bachay hoon gay. To ya sooch kar app sabar karoo ka hum apnay ghar main hain aur apnay pakistan main hain aur koi baat nahi agar kuch ziyda time lag jaya ga to phir bi hum un loogon sa bahtar hain jo bay ghar sardak ka kinaray jugion main rahtay hain.
I hope app loog mari baat ka gusa nahi karain gay aur iss par positively soochain gay.
