Whats your VO buddy?
GCMS notes printed on 17 Jan shows ottawa but also shows my application didn't clear R10 since it was held awaiting reply on my PC. However I live i AD, so ideally application should be transferred to ADVO

No Vensak. IP is "We are processing your background check." This is verified over whatsapp from some applicant.
Yes, that is what I have stated but maybe in a reversed way

In Progress is the new NOT STARTED. (the phrase In Progess has replaced Not Started, so the phrase In Progress... is the new NOT STARTED)

If it really goes IN PROGRESS you will see text like - We are processing / reviewing ...

Anyone have idea where can i get fasted ? I am in canada.

Now when I try to upload RCMP they ask for document number and dates when i did and expired dates? what should i fill in this?

Thank you for your help.

Hello Seniors,

As I stated before that CIC rejected my application as incomplete. I have Confirmation of Nomination letter and it is still valid till 29th April, 2017.

As my previous application is rejected, I recreated my EE profile with score 466. Can I link "OINP Confirmation to my new EE profile"?. If so then how long will it take to update my score.

Please help

Not sure Iman. I feel there is some confusion.

Earlier we knew for sure that NN was the default state. This usually was followed by NS. I interpret this as follows:

- Not needed is the status till the preceding steps are incomplete.
- Once the preceding steps are complete, the systems says - hey now I need BGC and it changes the flag from NN to NS. Why? Because now it is NEEDED but it hasnt started.

This alone now needs to viewed from the current status:

Which one do you think comes first? (The chicken or the egg ;) Look the below statements in isolation. What is logically the first one?


- Your Application is in progress. The next step is to conduct a background check.
- Not Applicable

Unless we have some cases to validate our assumption, we should not disturb the spreadsheet.

BTW, who are the editors of the sheet as on date? We need to number the records and split it up and ensure we have upto date info on this.
I Think IRCC is being descriptive and clearer in their updates. Hence we probably shouldn't compare previous wording to new wording, and wait for few cases to move on so we understand better. In all cases, as long as it says application is in progress and we are within 6 months, I won't worry abt the wording.

Yes you can. You need to contact your province, explain whole incident and ask kindly to forward your nomination to your new EE account.

Its not normal... Definitely not...

Normally, when u pass medicals, ur BG status changes from NN to NS...

NA is like NN... ANd yesterday, couple of my friends got medicals passed and their status also changed as expected.

I was worried cause felt like something is wrong in my app and thats why posted here...

But you are so relaxed and are sure that this is normal - that calms me down... May be you know more than me.

Thanks.
Being worried is not the solution either , Can't do anything anyways

Don't worry this seems generic wording in help tab. I have the same status as yours, apart from bg checks.

I see nothing wrong here!!! It seems like a lot of people take what's written in the HELP section as some kind os status on their application. IT IS NOT!!!!

You meds are passed... you BC is NN... that's it... what exactly are you worried about?

Guys..

After rejection for my application I recreated new express entry profile. My new EE profile application status shows "We received your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more information from you.". Should I consider this as "Open". Is my application status is "Open". Is it going to change to Open or will it be like this?

Please help

Hi,

New entrant here. We received a request for IMM5562 today. Now, we gave all the information during the EE profile submission itself, why the duplicate info requested in 5562? Does it mean that the way I entered the data in the first place is wrong? I am an Indian citizen currently in US on a visa.


My details
EE Profile: FSW-O
AOR: 11/DEC/16
Medicals passed 3/MAR/16

Hmmm... they've changed ALL the messages it seems. You best bet is to ask on the Express Entry in a Nutshell thread I think... Or the OINP thread as lots of people are recreating their APPS in the hopes for a PT NOI.

Look fro threads where people are creating their EE profile now. ;)
