The way I see it, compared to the years some other classes have to wait for PR, one year is chump change.

(But I still wish it were so much faster)

Same!!
 
Actually, you can not look up your own status, could cost you your job! The reason is simple - when you are at work, you are an employee and therefore do not need to look up your status to do your job. Therefore, if you want to know your status, you would still have to follow the regular channels like any other applicant. Now, being a federal employee, you(or a co-worker) may have a contact who works for immigration and could help you in that instance as a professional courtesy.

I work in healthcare but I am not allowed to look up my own records or even that of my spouse, neighbours, etc just because I want to. They tell us the question to always ask yourself is, "do I need to know to do my job?" If the answer is not 'Yes', then you shouldn't access the records.

Sh*t, you could start a movement. Road trip, road trip! haha :D Sometimes I wish I could have joined the federal public service instead of provincial....would have looked up my own status. What we need is an inside man! :P

I totally agree!! My employer, myself being employed in the educational sector, keeps telling me the same question.

haha ;D i hope you do realize that i was joking. i wouldnt actually risk my job (and clearance) by accessing information that i'm no supposed to have. i've been in the public sector long enough to know what i can and cannot do. and if i really wanted it that bad, like you said, i would talk to one of my buddies who actually works for CIC. but i feel uncomfortable even asking for that...so, moot point.

i'll try to be funnier next time, so it doesnt come off like i actually mean it. :P
