No please.

Please refer to your PER e-mail you received from CIC. They have mentioned the events on which they need input from your side. Good Luck!

Generally Three Reasons delay response from VO.

1) Adding dependent
2) Late PCC submission which makes delay in background check.
3) Not updating the schedule A from age 18.

I am almost 100% sure that all who are waiting for MR & PPR now, have/had at least one of the above pending.

Adding dependents:
Completing documentation and medical always take a significant time (apx 2-4 months) by VO on the top of regular application process time. If it's newborn, things are bit easy but for spouse it's longer due to background check. Again adding dependent like spouse is always better at this stage because in Canada it's difficult as different sets of rules apply with around 1-2 years of process time.

Late submission of PCC:
We are supposed to submit along with the main application last year. So it happens like this, PCC goes for background check, it's a simultaneous process with application processing, so the VO processed everything but as PCC was not there with application, that part of background check could not be initiated. So he asked for PCC later with MR/RPRF, which we think is ONTIME, practically LATE by at least 6 months. And for multiple PCC with frequent travel history, this background check takes longer time (1-6months).

Schedule A:
Also once schedule A is submitted again on VO request, which was submitted before in main application, means it was not filled up properly, so on our 2nd time submission, it requires further work by VO. Remember VO could not complete the job at one shot, so he kept a future date to review our file again, when he will touch the file and check if we have fulfilled his requirements that time. Otherwise he will again put another date.

Hope I could remove a bit anxiety from our MR/PPR party.


Best of luck all.


HAHAHA I have all above mentioned reasons

1. I have added my new born babe along with updated Schedule A on Feb2015.
2.I got PCC request for 3 countries (Iraq and Dubai for me and Iraq, Syria and Dubai from my spouse) on April and all PCC submitted on mid of May2015 along with some documents request.

After that no further communication from LVO.

Dear MNAhmad,

Yes, in 5-10% cases VO choose to verify with the employer on job. Perhaps you fall in that group. But so long your statement were correct, you don't need to worry about that at all.

With regards to PCC, please note, an application cannot be processed completely without the background check. BACKGROUND CHECK IS A MUST. So VO may not have asked you till now as your other checks are not completed yet, but surely will ask (please read my details in main post). Now it's your call if you want to delay the process, waiting for their call or submit asap. FYI, there are multiple checks by different parties to understand if we are any security threat to canada or not, so it's not just a number cross-check with issuing authority.

Hope it clarifies.
I think seniors shd guide here for those who have-not yet submitted PCC. Now we have 02 options

1-we wait for email from VO to submit PCC
2- we submit PCC on proactive basis to LVO
