Have now hit 16 months exactly and still no AIP... Is there really any point in calling to enquire?

I'm 29th April, 2015 with no SA or AIP. I did call and they just say wait a couple more months. Honestly I just try to avoid checking ECAS and anything to do with immigration because the more I think about it, the more it affects my quality of life.

Yeah, I don't check here or ecas as much as it drives me mad.

I hit 16 months today as well and don't see any point calling CIC... They'll probably just tell me to wait and wait and wait...

It looks like they're working through April 2015 applications now so I think May applicants will hear news in October hopefully.. *crosses fingers*

7th June 2016 applicant here (documentation acknowledged on this date by govt).

Just wondering if anyone has recently gotten their OWP (who applied around similar time to me) and how long OWP's are taking to be received?

I'm coming up to the 4 month ceiling but earnestly hoping it will come sooner!

Hello everyone,

I will attend landing interview next week.
For the question "Have you ever been refused entry or been deported from Canada or any other country?", how can I answer it ?
Five years ago, I applied for a visa to go to US but my application was denied. 2 weeks later, I re-applied and this time it was approved.
It that ok to answer "No". Thank you so much

Eh, I would advise that you answered truthfully and say that 5 years ago your app for US was denied BUT, you applied again and then it got approved! Be honest. Maybe someone else has a different opinion? I just don't think lying is a good idea.

I would not tell a lie. It is because the question "Have you ever been refused entry or been deported from Canada or any other country?" is ambiguous. I understand by asking this question, they want to know if I came to entry port of a country and officers there did not allow me to enter the country. If this is what they want to ask, "No" is correct answer.

CIC know my application for US visa was denied before for sure because I told them several times already so it is stupid to lie them.

However, to be safe I would answer it like your suggestion. Thank you so much.

Those of you who have received landing interviews, did you receive the letter by email or by post?

All our previous communication was by email, but the guy on the phone said it would come in the post. He also said a letter has / is being prepared but wouldn't divulge any further on that.

We're a little concerned as we moved home about two months ago, and despite our constant efforts, they are still yet to change the address.

Hate all this stress! Thought the DM would end all the agonising.

It came by email for me.

We had no mail correspondence throughout our application. We received an email for SA approval on July 25th and 1 week later received an email inviting us to Ottawa for landing interview on Aug 16th.
