AOR December 2nd, meds passed Dec 23rd, RPRF fee requested January 17th, RPRF Paid January 22nd, and background changed to "In Progress" January 24th. Maybe our group is starting to move!

With more than 9000 ITA issued in January only, I guess processing time of applications will increase substantial. Only medical has passed on 5 jan and nothing else has happened with my file.

NOC 0124
CRS 475
Single applicant
AOR 18 DEC
Medical passed 5 jan
BC is not needed at this time.

Yep, US Citizen and Resident- maybe its just easier to do the checks, etc. My background went right to in In Progress- its never had any of those other back and forth status changes.

Interesting. It seems like the other US citizens and residents have been forgotten lol

Oh!!! Pretty optimistic time prediction :) ;)

According to your predictions:

My eAPR/AoR: 29 Dec 16
PPR: 26 Feb 17 Great!!! It would be a blessing 8) 8)
Its little things like this which make life interesting. BTW - for my own prediction, I forgot to factor in the RPRF Fee request. That would probably add a week to my timeline and take it to early March.

Haha, I am not as confident as you. I forgot to upload my FBI PCC when I applied. I raised a CSE in January with LOE and the proof that I sent my fingerprints to the FBI. I hope they will not reject my application. If they do, it is totally my fault :p

#52- January 11, 2017 3,334 459
#53-January 25, 2017 3,508 453

Look at the ITA trend for the past few draws. I wonder how many of these actually would get converted to PRs. Canada seems like, is going to get very busy!

9700+ ITA in January. Compare to 2016, only 4500 ITA were issued in Jan. Wonder how Feb is going to be. On one hand, its good for aspirants, but will there be employment opportunities for all is a question.

Not to mention the load on Visa Officers :(

In 2015 and 2016, apparently, there were a large number of pending applications from the pre-EE era. I suppose those applications have been cleared and now the majority of the applications under the economic class are being accepted through Express Entry. The number of visas issued for this year's quota would be more or less the same of what was issued last year.

Good question Maged!!! after a long span. Where you had been?

Its a single EE profile no. where principal applicant and spouse is included. May be the GCMS notes will cover both!!!

How many PRs were issued in 2015 Raj? Any ideas?

been a bit busy.. thanks.

here's what made me confused, it's written on the consent form: Please be advised that you must submit a separate consent form for each individual in your file over the age of 18 if you wish to receive their information as well
