As your medical is done already so sooner or later your will receive the Passport request as well. I did medical in mid feb and passport was requested in May, so hopefully your PPR request is now very near as well.

Badar
 
Yeah Inshallah soon

I am desperate about it :)

STRIKE VERY UNFAIR AS PER LATEST REPORTS

http://rita-rosenfeld.blogspot.in/2013/07/consuming-greed.html

In contesting the higher salaries paid to lawyers, economists and social scientists, alleging that all diplomatic staff should be seen as equal in value of work and concomitant paycheque, he neglects to consider their specialized qualifications and the years they spent in academia earning those qualifications. On-the-job experience of the diplomatic core is not the equivalent of those specialized qualifications and should not be remunerated in equal salaries.


NO NEGOTIATIONS AFTER 5TH JUNE. TREASURY ADAMANT. NO TALKS RESCHEDULED.

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/story/2013/07/03/pol-foreign-service-strike-impact.html

The union disputes the government's claims about the benefits, and Edwards said if the government was really being fair, it would be willing to discuss the wage gap issue.

The last time the two sides sat down was June 5, and the government presented the exact same offer as it did 20 months ago, said Edwards. There are no new talks scheduled.


TAKING RETIRED EMPLOYEES BACK ON CONTRACT - BUT NOT EXPECTING ENOUGH RESULT

http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/story/2013/07/03/pol-foreign-service-strike-impact.html

Kenney's office said every visa office has core staff that have been deemed "essential" and are not participating in the job action, and there are other staff who are not part of the union because they are "locally engaged" hires.

But those staff members don't have the authority to approve or decline a visa application, according to the union, and adding that staff, in some cases retirees who are being sent abroad, is not making up the shortfall caused by striking workers.

good....very informative....
 
Guys,

I am thinking.......the NYVO received today my passports, they said it can take up to 6 weeks for me to get them back, that will bring it to August 19th...my medicals were done August 30th 2012, do you think they will give me an extension? Or will i have only 11 days to move to Canada????

Now this questions is killing me......I don't know if I should start packing or what.......if they give me an extension I will stay here in the US working for longer.....saving some money.

Let me know your thoughts and experiences.

no my dear i never applied for GCMS, as per my perception, it create a lot of question marks and un answerable questions...even before the interview i didn't applied for GCMS. its purely my own perception. But by the grace of GOD every thing went good for me....now i am stuck up in last stages of PPR. I strongly believe in GOD and he knows better for me.....if its good for me i sure get PPR.....I surrender myself before God......

I appreciate the belief and hope very best for you in life.
