True...actually very least people are receiving DM and PPR now in recent days.
We don't really know what's with the delay on our files. Even some October applicants are getting DM and PPR. I wish they would hurry up. :(

Creating an account wont speed up your application and provides more or less the same information as ecas, except with a little more detail. So, it's really up to you. Once you set it up correspondence will be sent to your GCkey account, so rather than an email with the letter attached. You'll get an email with a link and you'll be directed to GCkey to read any correspondence that's sent to you.
Thanks for your reply..... So i will be notify with email first if there is any letter or email on my GCkey account right,... One more question what other details i can see on GCkey account which are not show on Ecas?

Yes, you'll get an email and then you can read the letter you get on GCKey. Ultimately, the information you see is going to be the same, but in a different format. In ecas, you see a new line when something happens on your file, but on GCKey it shows the different steps on the file and then a comment beside it about whether or not the step has been completed, or if anything is outstanding. For example, my gckey looks like this:

Application step Current status
Review of eligibility We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results You passed the medical exam.
Review of additional documents We do not need additional documents.
Interview You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.
Final decision Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

so they are reviewing your eligibilty right.....
Thanks for giving me a perfect view of GCkey account. :)


One more thing - without Gckey account , we only get email with attached letter and with Gckey we get notification email to check letter or email through GCkey.

No, you misunderstand, under Final Decision, the current status is "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made." They are still checking eligibility, I don't know how long from now, but assume the 12 month timeframe.

Hi all!! I need a lil advice and help if anyone can
I am a July applicant -24th July’2018
Medical received- 7th dec’2018
Medical passed- 18th dec’2018
File transferred to NDVO- 15th jan
Additional document request-4th feb
There was no communication after this
My husband and I got our court marriage done in the month of June’2018 with a small wedding ceremony in a temple. We had clicked pictures of that and of a small function that we hosted the next day in a hotel. We attached all the necessary documents and pictures with our file.
Now in the past 10 days the visa officer has called me twice asking me to send the pictures of the wedding ceremony that we had done in the month of march’2019 when my husband came to visit me. We had done a function in March and I told him that I ll send the pictures from that function, in the first phone call and I did that on the same day, he also told me that if I ll not send the pictures they are going to put me in the interview queue. Again he called me and said that he doesn’t approve of those pictures and is giving me a second chance and wanted me to send the Phera photos and if I don’t do so then they ll definitely put me on the interview queue and put me on the A-140 investigation. Has this also happened to anyone else that the visa officer called twice or anyone in the same situation ?

Hello,

Today I got call from NDVO related to my application. did this a enquiry call? They asked couple of questions related to marriage, husband and whatever i mentioned in my application, and said if they need any further information they will contact me again. Even I checked ECAS , no updates there.

Did anyone get this kind of call? How do i expect next? I am really getting worried.

Thank you.
