Congratulations! They send email/call candidates to confirm their Canadian address before issuing COPR! What's you AOR?
Thank you! That's such a relief!
My AOR was July 31, but I had a pretty simple application and had already submitted biometrics the year before which may have sped things up.

Hi guys,

I had Student Ambassador job in college on campus when i was an international student, the job was occasional, only on certain events like convocation and open house. In one year i only worked for approx. 100 hours. Since, this was occasional and I didn’t know how to mention in PGWP application, So I didn’t mention this job in my PGWP application but i mentioned all the other job that i have done.

But now when i was filling for my PR I have mentioned this job in my personal history.

Do you guys think this will create any problem like discrepancy/misrepresentation?

How long does it take to have the GCMS notes? approaching a month since requested and nothing received. Also, as I applied with CEC and I am on a job offer, I did not upload any financial document proof (e.g., bank statement). Would that cause any trouble considering that CEC inlands are not required to submit proof of financial means if they are on a job offer? Thank you.

Hello to all the CEC July Applicants,

I want to give you guys an update after speaking with an IRCC agent this morning-

She said my application is up to date and nothing is pending from my side.

AOR: JULY 03 2020 (Final decision suppose to be by Jan 03 and delayed due to COVID19)
BIO: Completed on SEPT 30th
MEDICAL: Passed on AUG 25th
ELIGIBILITY: Recommended pass (need to be approve by a senior officer)
BACKGROUND CHECK: In Process

Hoping for a COPR in Early Feb.

Is Background check and Security not the same though!!!! Can some one please explain
We have almost the same timeline since my AOR is July 1. Bio given Nov 20 updated same day. Ive lowered my atandards and will just focus on myself and mental well being since Im already here in Canada.

I joined the 100% club earlier this year. However today I found that the 100% progress bar disappeared, and the line of words "Your case is taking us longer to process, about 20% of the cases are more complex" is disappeared! Anyone also observed this in the account?
same with me cannot see progress bar

My timeline:
AOR: July 20th
Medical passed: September 10, 2020.
Biometrics
: October 17, 2020 Completed.

I noticed that on Oct 15th my profile status changed from your action is required to submitted but biometrics hasnt changed until Oct 18th (I didnt check on Oct 17th).
Just called IRCC, the agent said everything looks good. She said they haven't used my biometrics yet to process my security, background and criminality. She also said the final decision wont be before January 20th... Good luck to all!!

Does that mean that July AOR's are on hold until after January 20th based on what she told you?

Yea why Jan 20th im wondering
Still somewhat of good news considering the fact Ontario goes on a 28 lockdown starting January 14, 2021. I think IRCC may be exempted because they provide an essential service even though they are working at a reduce capacity, some of stated on here they were told only about 25% are working at the office.

But they should be working from home already anyway right. I guess there will be delays due to that. Assen May I know what’s your aor?

My AOR is July 8, 2020. I wonder if they are able to approve the security aspects such as criminality, security and background check from home or if they have to go into the office and approve it from a secure server. That may explain the delay.
