if your application changed from 'in process' to 'received' it means it arrived to your VO. when it changes to 'in process' again it means they are working on it.

I assume you already received the sponsor approval and the notice of transfer the app to VO to assess the applicant. So your status means that your app was transferred to the VO and as soon as they will start their assessment it will change to In process

yes Medical Request depends also on VO some keep it till a later stage of processing and it is believed to be requested by the end of process at this case but there is no guarantee of course. Some will receive it by the end of the process while others can still wait even after the Medical request.

Hey everyone, looking like a lot of people are finally seeing more movement with their applications. And for those who aren't, you will! I got my fingers crossed for you.

I received another email for my app from Hong Kong VO this morning, just trying to determine what it is exactly, as they are often somewhat confusing with the way they word things. I'm pretty sure its simply a "passport request" but we never received the "decision made" email. Are we supposed to get that first or is it not an exact science type of thing?

Some of the wordings they used:
"The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps within 30 days in order for our office to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and, if applicable, your permanent residence visa"
STEP 1: Change in Circumstances:
STEP 2: Passport Requirements – Determine if you need to submit your passport(s)
STEP 3: PREPARE YOUR DOCUMENTS
  • 1. One copy of this letter
  • 2. Passport(s) OR photocopy(ies) of passport(s), as explained in Step 2.
  • 3. Two (2) photos (passport style)
  • 4. If not yet paid, Right of Permanent Residence Fee (RPRF) --> that's the thing I paid over $1,000 for last July I assume?
  • 5. The height and eye colour (for both eyes) for the Principal Applicant
And then told me where to submit it (closest VO office...which will be nowhere near Hong Kong)... The letter closed with "As you have now received a Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR) or have been notified to submit your travel documents in preparation for the issuance of a COPR, you are strongly encouraged to use free pre-arrival services funded by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC)"

I don't want to count all my chickens before they hatch, but it sounds like our background checks etc cleared and the rest is just a formality?

I think the only thing you can do is to wait... Once your file is transferred to another VO, you'll get AOR2 or your ECAS status will change!

How come July applicants from only India and Phillipines are getting DM and the rest of us are just waiting. Only Ottawa and NDVO seems to be issuing DMs to applicants. Why is there so much discrimination? Please some July 2020 applicant let me know if you've received a DM or Pre arrival or anything from a different VO.
