I was on the Same Boat I had to resend a form. When I called Cic the agent told me no upates and I have have to get back in the line.
I think 2 weeks after I received the Approval email.
Thanx a lot for the info . That definitely came as a relief to me.
I have a question if u dnt mind . Was ur application sent to CPP ottawa too ?

Thanx for replying .
But no my original appliaction was sent to mississauga n i was told to send the required docs to CPP ottawa this time .. N in the email i was told to address the package to a particular officer ( for eg. Attention - officer BD )
So to my undertanding i thought it wouldnt take that long since it looked like they were giving priority to the case since its allready been so long since i applied ...
I guess as u said i shall call em again and verify the info that agent gave me today .
Oh if you were told to address it to your officer don't worry! It will be REALLY fast!

I have a similar question. I know a guy from Nepal, who hasn't gotten a PPR yet but his eCAS shows medical results received and In Process as of May 5th (he got approved on March 16 so it's been a while). Is anyone else aware of cases where processing happened before they requested passport?

Mine even hasn't shown Med received. Sponsorship process has been "In Process" and applicant process has been "Application Received" since sponsorship approved. If there are something wrong with my application?

Anyone applied via Buffalo office get updates? After sponsorship approved in early April, I haven't heard anything from BUF office and eCas has no update either.

Sponsorship didn't change to decision made once you got approval? I think someone just didn't get around to updating your ecas.

I THINK I got my PR approval letter yesterday. The wording wasn't quite as dazzling as I had somehow imagined.

"YOUR PERMANENT RESIDENT VISA WILL BE VALID FOR TRAVEL UNTIL: *11/07/2012
* date appears in MM/DD/YY format"

I thought at the very least, there would be confetti, or maybe a puppy.

:)
congrats Firefly ;D finally this visa is successful for u ;D and LOL no confetti or puppy!!!!! very dissapointing :-\ at least a musical card!!!! :p

have a happy landing and nice start in Canada!!!! and stay in touch :)

I didn't receive an update. I wrote to Buffalo a week or so ago and they wrote back and that's when I found out mine was transferred to LA on May 8th (app filed Jan 10). BUT, I do know alf+jlh's app was filed the same day as mine I believe (actual file received by CPC-M same day) and her ecas has in process now (as of like a week I think)... I also think I heard someone already got their PPR ... but that's foggy

I guess everyone is different. Wish we heard something!!

Hi Everyone, I know this is completely off the topic but I thought I might like to share this quote a friend of mine posted on facebook. It's just for something different and I think it's good to have some time out from all the immigration stuff every once in awhile.

So here it is.....


Once upon a time, there was an island where all the feelings lived: Happiness, Sadness, Knowledge, and all of the others, including Love. One day it was announced to the feelings that the island would sink, so all constructed boats and left. Except for Love.
Love was the only one who stayed. Love wanted to hold out until the last possible moment.
When the island had almost sunk, Love decided to ask for help.
Richness was passing by Love in a grand boat, Love said,
" Richness, can you take me with you?"
Richness answered, " No, I can't. There is a lot of gold and silver in my boat. There is no place here for you."
Love decided to ask Vanity who was also passing by in a beautiful vessel."Vanity, please help me!"
" I can't help you, Love. You are all wet and might damage my boat." Vanity answered.
Sadness was close by so Love asked, Sadness, let me go with you.""Oh . . . Love, I am so sad that I need to be my myself!"
Happiness passed by Love, too, but she was so happy that she did not even hear when Love called her.
Suddenly, there was a voice, " Come, Love, I will take you." It was an elder. So blessed and overjoyed, Love even forgot to ask the elder where they were going. When they arrived at dry land, the elder went her own way. Realizing how much was owed the elder,
Love asked Knowledge, another elder, " Who Helped me?"
Knowledge smiled with deep wisdom and answered. "Because only Time is capable of understanding how valuable Love is."
a little late to say it but it's very sweet :) thank u for sharing and bringing a smile :)

hi Amoss!!!!!!!!!! we missed u tooooooo!!!!! ;D nothing new here, i take it as a good sign ;) here is hot like hell i think worse than where u r (here it's desert, any green they have is brought from miles away and in the summer it's burnt :eek: already 38 degrees with so much humidity; soon it can reach 50+ God help us!!! but i know in India it's worse :( at least here we have ac at home (althought i don't like it and it makes me sick) and everywhere inside...so obviously we go out less but i do take advantage and learn new things in my field and make new projects ;) maybe i'll plan a trip to Ca soon like i do every summer....
no change in our appl: no aor (i don't expect one anyway but it would b nice ;)), even the csq didn't arrive yet (still in their timeline) and no change in ecas either LOL but we did manage to extend the applicant's passport at the specific embassy without the need to travel (not safe there at all) and that made me very very happy and relieved...good luck!! :-*

Thanks. I just checked the content after I clicked "In Process". The content sounds like Decision Made: ......................We sent you a letter on April 4, 2012 about the decision on your application. Please consider delays in mail delivery before contacting us.
