There are some March AOR who are still waiting for movement since they went into Eligibility Review in October :)

So it's a pretty long and stressful wait
There's something I don't understand though. I thought this EE was a 6 month thingie by and large and only rare cases exceed the timeline. I woulda thought that was time enough to approve or reject an application.

Could you answer this question for me please.

I'm still waiting on the golden email. How long does it normally take to get the mail after approval?

P.S. I called CIC on Tuesday and was told that my application was approved from March 4th.
I'm in the same boat as you. Application approved on March 9th and no PPR email yet.
When I spoke to the CIC agent she said there's no time frame for when they can send it through and just to keep checking emails.

Other threads have said 10 days others have waited 5-8 weeks!

I was just reading a thread that says 1 - 3 weeks. Hopefully we can get it within our 6 months timeline.

I need clarification on my application. Mine is through Manitoba Provincial Nominee.
AOR on October 4, 2018 but since my eligibility has been under review.

How do I know where my visa office is? Also, I tried calling several times, after given them my application number and year of birth, they just read what is on my profile and the prompt says all agents are busy then end the call. How do I contact them?

After the application is approved, does it go to the LVO for Final Review or is the PPR Mail directly triggered by the Case Agent?

Hi Guys!

So my question is little different. I have about 7 years of work experience from about 5 employers.

As the max points we get is for 3 years work experience, and getting Reference Letter is exact Express Entry format is a pain from different employers. I was actually wondering if I can ONLY show my last two employers as they would cover my 3 years.

Or I need to show my ENTIRE professional career?

Any help is appreciated!

My experience is that you will need to show proper letters for three years and for remaining years you can have any letters or even if you don't have it then it won't matter much. However you will need to declare where you worked for that time period. May be some more knowledgeable people can shed some light.

I am thinking to order GCMS today too. By the way you are already in IP2 and you ordered GCMS. Anything you feel would be concerning to IRCC on the papers you submitted?
Not in regrards of eligibility. I showed funds quite more than required for single applicant, though major portion is in Fixed deposits and rest in my account that I use regularly. Attached a lot for my experience proof as well. Only gcms notes could clear. But I do have 2 previous rejections and did tell about them in my application.
In short I cannot say what could be the reason.

There is no fixed timeline . Some receive immediately and some received after few weeks too. Since your application is already approved , you just have to wait patiently for you copr and start planning your future if you are Outland applicant.

That was back in 2017 when EE was still new and people were getting PPRs in 3-4 months.

Now, it's a miracle if they get it in 6 months. More and more people are applying for Canada and they keep sending out ITAs without clearing the backlogs. They're also probably short on staff. So all this is making processing times longer.

It's about time they update their website about processing times. Its not 6 months anymore. Realistically one should expect PPR 6-12 months.

If you're under eligibility review, it may take a very long time. Might be even a year. Its pretty complicated depends on case by case basis
What’s the difference in eligibility under review and we are reviewing whether you meet eligibility requirements, isn’t it the same thing

Reviewing your eligibility means they're verifying whether you meet all the points you claim.

Eligibility under review means something under your eligibility has been flagged. They found something suspicious and want further review on it.
