December 2018 AOR - join here

Just got off the phone with IRCC, was told by the agent that my case was recently transferred from CIO SYDNEY to CIO OTTAWA. I thought there is only one CIO, which is the one in Sydney? She emphasized that my case is now at the centralized intake office in Ottawa, not the local VO. My AOR is 12/23/208, eligibility was passed in early October and security is still in progress. Is it a good thing that the made the case transfer at this point of the progress?

I actually called IRCC once again today and evidently the agent who answered my call yesterday made a mistake, my application is still at CIO Sydney.

Extensive travel history? What is your country of citizenship?

Extensive travel history? What is your country of citizenship?

Not really that extensive, and all of my previous destinations were European, North American or Southeast Asian. I’m a Chinese national but had lived in the States for a few years as a student.

Do you think you were just randomly selected then?

Do you think you were just randomly selected then?

I honestly have no idea. Maybe it was because of a job that I had? I used to work for a Chinese bank that’s heavily involved in overseas investments made by the Chinese government.

Anyhow, this whole application process has been a grueling test for my patience. It took the VO(cio Sydney) nearly 10 months just to pass my eligibility, I have yet to receive an ADR and according to gcms notes there’s no RR items on my file either. I guess the VO had a major backlog and they somehow decided I was of no importance to Canada and then just threw my application to the bottom of the pile.

Sorry about that. Best wishes in the new year.

Sharing few updates from my one year journey

I applied for GCMS notes twice after waiting for 6 months

July 2019 - First set of GCMS notes received in July didn't show any issues with application

Aug/Sep 2019 - Second set received in August revealed that my application was under "review required" for proof of funds. I resent the bank statement explaining that Fixed Deposit amount is immediately available for use in September. I am not sure it made any difference.

Oct 2019 - I don't remember the exact date but I received a ghost update in late October. Probably, some senior touched my file.

Nov 2019 - I raised a web form in mid November inquiring about the status of application. I got below reply and request for re-medicals bringing some hope.

· Your application meets the eligibility requirements under the immigration program for which you have applied.
· The security background verification is currently valid.
· The criminal background verification is currently valid.

Dec 2019 - Completed Re-medical test
Jan 2020 - Medicals passed and PPR

Hey guys! Happy New Year!
Quick question here.
Ive been working for cash for some time now. Its not in Canada. I give private classes to people for cash. Is it fine if I let the IRCC know about it? Its due to one of the IMM forms where they ask about current job. I am allowed to work in the country.
What do you think?

To view the forms you submitted in your application, there's a trick that's been mentioned on this forum a few times. Go to your application page and there's a link called "view submitted application" (or similar). This link will lead you to the list of documents you attached to your application.

Then, in the address bar of your browser, you should modify the URL, by replacing documentsToSubmit.do with applicationChecklist.do and hit enter.

Yes you can. Maybe you accidentally missed a code or something? Might want to check again
