Every time I call I never get through. I called at 8:30am (from Canada) when they opened but when I opted to speak to an agent, I got an automated message saying they can't pass me to an agent due to the high volume of calls. I have been trying to get an update for over a week now! Did you call a specific Indian number?
I called up at 6 pm ist....I just called this number +16139444000

I just called IRCC, 48 days left in appl, the agent was not at all helpful. He said he only has access to whatever Information I already can see in my account. He also said I will get an email when the file is transferred to any visa office. If I havent got it, it means the file is still not transferred. The 6 months time is average processing time and not the maximum time. So it can go beyond that too. He wouldnt even ask for my appl number to check for any updates or the visa office.

Hello All,

I have been a silent reader and want to thank everyone for this valuable forum to discuss the progress of the PR journey.
I am a FSW- Outland ( India ) applicant.
AOR - 24 Oct 2018
MEP -24 Nov 2018

No update after that. I used to read the discussion on this forum and today I decided to call the IRCC to check the status of the profile.
I just came to know that my file is with CPC -Ottawa, BG check not started yet, Eligibility decision not made. It is going on.
Can someone throw some light on the processing time of CPC- Ottawa. Already spent 140 days waiting.
hey there, looking at recent trends you'll move to IP2 in the week starting 18th March and hopefully you'll get the ppr the week starting 25th March.

Mine is aor 29th Oct 2018 MEP 29th Nov. I'm sure i'll be getting it in last week or 1st week of April 2019

I called IRCC today and as per my experience the agent asked me multiple things to verify then he asked mY UCI number and EE application number starting with E. He put my call on hold and gave me the details. I have read in this blog that some agents are not helpful. It is may be because they are frustrated with the high call volumes. You can try again after 2-3 days or may be tomorrow.

I have just managed to get through - thank you for your advice!

AOR 22nd Oct
IP2 - last week or before

Visa office is Ottawa
Criminality in progress (started 21st Nov)
Security not yet started

He said as I have requested the notes of my account it can delay any updates to my file, as they have to stop progress until the notes have been prepared and sent. I did ask if my file has approval in principle, but he said that isn't stated on my account. So I am concerned there is something wrong as it seems a lot of people who posted here said they have approval in principle. ARGH!!!

Hi,

I want to call to find out the status as well.

What is the phone number to call them on? I tried the one on the website that says it is only from inside Canada.. Can never get through.

Please, much appreciated.
