SDKD, I remember, we both are from the same date in November 2015 when our application were received in Nova Scotia, and I usually compared my nomination process with yours:rolleyes:. How are you now?

If to speak about me: AOR on March 28, MEP on July 26, BG is NA ( actually I don`t know if it is NA1 or NA2 because I was out of civilization and internet access :), later I just noticed that Additional docs status had been changed to "We don`t need AD")

Dear all,

Happy to inform you that I received my Passport Request today.

NSNP Nomination - Dec 2017
AOR Submitted on 14th Feb 2017
Additional docs for IELTS - March 2017
Medical passed - Apr 2017
Additional docs for new baby born - Jun 2017
Received PPR - 3rd Sep 2017

I would like to personally thank each one of you for helping me out in all my queries. This forum has driven me in the right direction whenever I am out of clue.

Thanks once again .

Few challenges that I faced which would help someone in the future

1. Getting Nomination from NSNP - Giant IT Companies in India don't provide experience letter. So did my company. I used the experience letter which should have been used only internally . That screwed up me at my office and they didn't agree to help me on the background check by nomination officer.

So go for affidavit from couple of your peers/supervisor from your organization who can help you all the time. Background verification is mandatory.

2. New born baby after nomination - Submitted all the documents to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca with the below details. Also raised CSE enquiry with these details.

  • Name : XXX
  • Passport Number : XXX
  • Date of Birth: XXX
  • Medical Test : Upfront medical Test done
  • Application Fee: Paid (150$ CAD)
  • IMM0008ENU Form Filled
After couple of days, got provision to upload baby's documents

3. Status of application - NEED MORE DOCUMENTS TO PROCESS YOUR APPLICATION.

This was the status of 'Review of additional documents' for 2 months and no documents were requested. So I requested for GCMS notes and found that the NOC code doesn't match with experience letter . My application was transferred from case analyst to NDVO office.
I wanted to prove that the documents were written technically and the NOC has generic occupation skills. But there was no way to communicate to them.

Couple of days back I spoke CIC customer care and it was shocking to hear that my application was APPROVED . I received passport request this morning and still my eligibility criteria is under progress with need more documents. Funny right !!

SO PLEASE DONT RELY ON THE STATUS AND GCMS. It gives a clue and not an accurate information.

Congratulations to everyone !!! A Long Wait journey ending happily !!
