Folks, I just received a PPR. Check out my signature for all the details. Thanks in advance for all the congratulatory messages and honestly, because all of us here have already come across so many posts offering profuse solace and motivation to be patient, in order to avoid redundancy to the maximum extent possible, I am just gonna say- Congratulations to all the successful applicants and Best of Luck to all the waiting applicants.
I was almost about to lose hope and was on the verge of starting a job when I got the first update- the one with the Background Check.

A word of advice for those who are planning to apply and might stumble upon this forum - Don't quit your job until you receive your PPR. In hindsight
leaving my work prior to PPR was not a wise decision and neither was my calculation of days for application approval. The dense forest of speculations has some nasty fruits!

And also because I have been a member of CanadaVisa's forum (which by the way does not get nearly enough credit for providing such an incredible platform for communication among applicants) for a while now, I thought I would provide some clarity on the ambiguity regarding payslips and validity of work experience which have raised many queries in the past.
1) I did not submit any pay stubs,
2) I gained my work experience (one year full time placement) while I was an international student in England. So I think its safe to say the work experience that you gained outside of Canada while you were a full time student does count; the job has to be full time though such as a placement. These are the same issues that I was unsure about even till the day before I received my PPR.
Hope this helps.

Regards.

Hi guys,

I completed a week over my 6 months and raised a web form. Today, I received the following reply which is same as my ircc profile status of only Medical passed.

I wonder for 6 months my eligibility has not been verified?? Is this possible??

Is this general reply copied from our ircc profile or through web form we do get latest updates??

I am pretty confident IRCC counts the number of days (not months) to arrive at the true duration of a position. They would glean this information from the actual start and end dates provided in your work reference letter or otherwise made available to them via pay stubs or other forms of evidence. I'm not sure if that answers your question.
Thanks.. I have asked the past employer to provide reference letter and propose to submit it along with LOE.. anyways GCMS notes as on Mid May indicates nothing has started!!

Firstly, don't be disheartened!

Waiting after medical is common; Processing time going in now is around 6 months.

Wait and watch and Patience is the key here :)

you can call CIC and ask application status too.
thanks for your kind words..its already been about 7 months now..i heard that they are taking longer for spouses who are in pakistan-not fair :(

Congratulations to those who have got their golden mails!
I try to stay away from all those anxiety for a while and lower my expectations a bit.
Based on current trends, it is normal to not hear from IRCC within six month, so if PPR arrives within six months, it is a nice surprise; if not, I won't lose my mind.
