Considering revoking my application, moving back to home country and applying through CEC in the future (currently applied through PNP, working under closed work permit, tied to employer and hard to switch because of LMIA processing). (AOR may 12th 2020)

Hi,
I got my GCMS notes today's, which I applied for on Jan 5. @legalfalcon can you please help me in understanding, what paper file transfer means? The notes are saying there was a paper file transfer which occured in august to Etobicoke due to workload redistribution. Thanks

That's quite normal. Files get transferred between IRCC work locations amongst them for workload distribution, nothing to be concerned about

@caipsnotes thanks for the reply. I kind of got skeptical about "paper" word.

Yours' is not a paper based application? Even then no point worrying about things one can not control

You got into the worst office. I have the same situation. My file transferred to Etobicoke on Aug and nothing has happened after that even not eligibility pass!!

This is out of control. We can try to be hopeful. I wish we could have been able to request the change of office. But anyways staying positive you never know. Staying positive is the only way to go through these hard times.

IRCC will transfer filed to different offices based on multiple factors, such as workload distribution and processing requirements. Immigration law and the regulations specifically state where an application must be submitted, but they do not stipulate where an application must be processed, which can be at any visa office in Canada or abroad.

During the course of processes, even if your submitted electronic application, there may be a paper application generated based on documents that come in form other agencies, provincial immigration offices (if PNP) etc. and thus the paper file may also have to be transferred along with the electronic file for father processing.

The protocol for application tarsier is available at:

Hmmm that might be what happened to mine! I’m waiting for my GCMS so I’ll check when I get them, but I haven’t had any movement since August either, last activity was a recommended pass. Maybe my file is in the pile with yours

My application has been officially approved, the CoPR number has been added to my file. But I have NOT received the letter yet. Does anyone know how long it takes to receive the actual letter?

It should be soon. Dont worry. Congrats.

Can you share your timeline?
also, did you receive any email for the final decision or just log in your account and saw the update?
Was your file stuck with JS13765?

 

[jpshya]

Yes, same officer worked on our file. This information comes from the first GCMS notes, we ordered a second one but doesn’t arrived yet.

Congratulations!!!

I also got the same officer and May, 21 AOR. Got excited after seeing your updates and called IRCC yesterday. But mine still stuck at Criminality Inprogress, Security Not started. Same status from 1-Sep-2020.
Nine months crossed this weekend, and still praying for some good news.

Do you have any idea how soon? I thought the CoPR letter should be issued with the CoPR number... It does not make any sense to me.
I posted in this group to see if somebody is in the same situation...
