The due date is entered by the system and is not something done by an officer, though it can be overridden manually. The due date is only there to remind the officer to take action on a file. For most it will have no significance as progress will be made on the application way before the due date and for others even after the due date has passed, things will keep penning as a new due date will be generated.

There is no way to track or gauge based on the due date. What matters is that your application is progressing well and is going through the stages.
Yeah, it appears the file just needs one file review for COPR. I am visa exempt, so shouldn’t have a PPR.

Then you will straight get an email with the COPR. Are you in the US or Canada? If not, then you may have to wait longer.

Hi All,
Does the signature in the consent form have to be the same as in the passport? Or can any signature of the applicant do? (Because the EE application was anyway online and signatures were electronic)

The signature on the consent form has to match the signature that is on your official documents submitted to IRCC, i.e. passport. IRCC ATIP will compare the signatures to ensure that they match to verify the identity of the person requesting or authorising the request of the GCMS notes.

Hello @caipsnotes, I have a question here I had raised a webform to LVO on 11th July, 2020. This is the response I just got today after 2 months.

"Please be advised that due to ongoing restrictions in the United Kingdom relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, IRCC London is operating at significantly reduced capacity. Your application is awaiting review but we are unable to advise when this review will take place in the near term.

Please rest assured that we will contact you should anything additional be required. In view of the ongoing situation relating to the COVID-19 pandemic, no application in progress will be closed or refused due to a lack of documentation or inability to complete the application process in time, such as giving biometrics or completing an immigration medical exam, when unrestricted travel reopens.

We appreciate your patience at this time. Please continue to provide information on any changes to your mailing address, family composition or other details affecting your application.

Please note that we are unable to respond to repeat enquiries. As such you will be contacted again once there is an update on the file."

However, as per my GCMS notes that were generated on 17th August,2020. Eligibility is cleared, criminality is passed and security is in progress/ completed. So what are your views?

Signature should be the same, IRCC will verify it. If they can't verify they may ask for a copy of the passport as well. Having said that, electronic signatures (esign) are accepted by IRCC as well during the pandemic but they have to be supported by a verifiable audit log. Issues with signatures on the consent form is the #1 reason for consent forms being rejected and causing delays with the process. This is an example of a message that IRCC may send when they encounter an issue with the consent form


This is further to your request under the Access To Information Act*, which was received on xxxxxxxxxxx, for the following records:

the electronic notes of the immigration or citizenship officer(s) for the xxxxxxxx residence file concerning xxxxxxxxx.

We are writing to inform you that we require further information in order to continue processing your request. Your request is being placed on hold for the following reason(s):

· The consent provided is not valid because:
- It appears to have been tampered with.
