December AOR 2017 - join here.

[itagirl]

Hi all,
AoR: December 13, 2017
Got UCI but getting impatient as no update, no medicals, no nothing after that. Initially and still got this technical glitch, Your Action is Required - asked a question about the problem and they acknowledged the problem and told everything is in order despite the problem. After two weeks asked about the VO, of course still in central intake office and desperately requested GCMS notes to make them notice me!
Just need your positive comments

AOR: December 20
I was in similar situation. My background status changed to "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information" on Jan 09 and from that date till yesterday my Medical status was "You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes"

Finally "Review of medical results" changed to "You passed the medical exam" today.

Hi everyone good to be here. Please suggest what is wrong with my application. I am an Outland. My AOR was 14th December, got medical passed on the 21st of December. Since then I have been on IP1. Today is day 36, it seems too slow to me. Where will my file be at this moment?

My AOR was 13th December, not even passed Medicals yet. Case still at CIO, Sydney.

I'm going crazy checking my application every 2 hours LOL

My AOR was on December 18, I'm on NA2 since January 8 and I just found out my process is at CPC-Ottawa. Has anyone who received AOR after December 15 reached IP2?

Guys as per the CIC website:

"Since Express Entry is a new system and not enough applications have been received yet, processing times are not available but we have committed to process the majority of applications in six months or less."

Please stop fussing, contacting, calling or otherwise burdening the agents at CIC if your AOR is less than six months. I believe that lengthens the process for yourself and others. I see people with AOR a month or less ordering GCMS notes. People lets exercise some patience and give those poor CIC agents who are doing a thankless job a break.

Ditto. (Timeline in sig). Nothing is wrong. Its regular processing speed. December was an exception to that with folks getting PPR in a matter of weeks. Regular processing means we can't complain till our 6 months are up

Hi everyone!

My AOR is Dec 25.

Are you guys checking your account for changes in status everyday? I'm so anxious I keep accessing my profile every few hours. I can't control it.

I check mine like 5 times a day...

[salmbagjaf]

I have been in NA2 for 17 days now. No need to worry.

 

[katiegud]

[mapleleaf987]

looks like they are finishing up the backlog from early 2017 hence processing has slowed down for us in the Dec AORs. if you see the PRs issued recently its mostly for the ones who have had their case open since over 90+ days. the wait is painful but sigh what can be do

request everyone here to please mention their category FSW/CEC/PNP (if not already in the sign) when they post something here..helps understand the trends better
all the best y'all!!!

Regarding at what stage BG will change??

STAGE 1:: After we submit our application, the BG status would be NA and it will be there until we see a change in Medical status (Passed).

STAGE 2:: After medical update is done, then agent at CIO will change our BG to IP or NBG. Then, he will start R10 check, Criminal checks.

STAGE 3:: After the above checks are done, then he will change BG to NA and our file moved to next stage for Eligibility assessment (A11.2) . Once he/she feels that we are meeting the Eligibility then he/she will provide his/her recommendation to Visa Officer and initiate the Security Clearance. At this point only our file will be moved from CIO to CPC.

STAGE 4:: Officer at Local Visa Office (LVO) will review the recommendation, Security clearance reports. Once he/she satisfies then he/she will approve the recommendation. Then our BG will be changed to IP again. This is where PPR(Passport Request) mails triggered to applicants.

from the first post on this thread. you will not know that your eligibility is cleared until your status is changed from NA2 to IP2. the timeline for that no one can actually predict.
