Yeah I suspect that her medical had nothing to review (clean medical history) and no complexities to the application.

I thought you were in Jamaica but your BG check is in progress long time and that only happens to inland applicants (so far).

No I am in Canada. Yea the BG check taking awhile so I am worried lol. I hope all is well. I know I have no criminal history and I submitted all the letters from my previous jobs not sure what else the BG check entails. It could be due to the fact that my spouse is also on the application as well. Spouse is in Jamaica. Maybe lots to check out.

That would be for those who have a mailing address different from home address right?

Xfactor we have same time line man, same ITA and AOR, the only difference is that everything went very fast for me. By April 25 I had 3 lines in Ecas, Medical passed, Additional document submitted and Background in progress. Since then, nothing at all. Waiting patiently. Work permit expires in another 2 weeks.

Yes mine is crawling perhaps because there are two of us on the application. Did you apply for a BOWP? In any case wouldn't you be on implied status when your WP expires?

OptimisticLady I don't think this month will pass before a rain of PPR. You'd be on implied status though.

Wah gwaan everybody?

Got ITA one week ago with 460 points under FSW. I living in Canada now and have been for the last 2 years. I have a police record from Jamaica I received in Janauary of this year. Would that police record be valid or do I have to get a new one?

Thank you

Congrats on your ITA. If your police certificate is dated in January then yes you may need another one. The certificate should not be more than six months old but maybe they will let it slide. Hopefully they don't reject your application but rather ask you to submit a new one.
