I really appreciate your quick response. Thank you. Here is the story in short:

I lost my PR as my physical presence in Canada was less than 730 days on a given 5 year period as per rule. My IAD appeal dismissed in mid March, 2013 and I left Canada well within time limit. I got official "certificate of departure" which proves that I left Canada within allowed time frame. I had no criminal record whatsoever and got clean police report both from Canada and Bangladesh. Same with my wife having absolutely no criminal record. We have been happily married for last 23 years with one son and daughter, both are adult Canadian citizens. So far I have received 3 GCMS notes. The first one said eligibility passed. The second one mentioned that there was some allegation received by Mississauga office (it was a really big surprise for me!). But the third one did'nt mention anything about that allegation. Now I am waiting for the 4th GCMS note. What do you think?
Now it makes sense why they are taking time to schedule your interview. Canada sees that you did not value your first PR when it was granted to you first time. Canada believes that you did not follow the PR law or regulations that is why CPC-M made a negative recommendation on you to your visa office.

They are fully aware that your relationship is genuine, however they are not happy the fact that you broke the Law by staying outside of the country for a very long time. Canada knows that some people wants to get the Canadian Citizenship then return to their countries of origins which they don't like. They want everyone they give document to contribute to their economy by staying and working in Canada.

They might take a bit long to schedule you for that interview. In the end you will receive your PR again. I am sure they checked your history in Canada, if you used to work or collecting welfare which could look bad on your file. I wanted to have a frank talk with you. As I wrap up, I stand by you and with you until you get your PR again and reunite with your family. Once they issue your visa, please never travel outside of Canada until you get your citizenship.

Asigned to zzzzz

Am confused what initials
Hi Elger,

Yes it is clear to me now why everything show "NOT STARTED" because you are inland applicant. Inland application takes very long time to be processed than out land. Go on CIC website you will see the processing timeline for inland applicants is way high compared to out land.

sorry eagle,

you mean 4 months after initial application sent to CIC-M or after NDVO receive the application ... and notes will be received on 5 months.

regards,
Sorry Officer I meant 4 months after the file arrives at the Visa Office. Usually they put a BFD of 3-4 months on the file in order to completely review eligibility then processing will continue. I could also be wrong, it might also take even 5-6M in case your visa office is experiencing backlog but if not the standard waiting period is 3-4 months.

They might not tell you anything. But after your interview wait for at least a month then request your GCMS.

Hello Guys,

Do not send me private emails if I didn't allow you to do so, because I will not answer your messages and it is just a waist of time for you if you wanted a rush answer. Put your posters on the thread anyone or myself will answer your questions. Thanks for your understanding.

Hi Eagle333

I know you are very helpful to this forum members that's why looking towards you for some answers.

I might be too early to find what's going on with my file but here's my status.


ECAS Status:

1. We received your application for permanent residence on August 26, 2015.
2. We started processing your application on October 30, 2015.
3. Medical results have been received.
4. We sent you correspondence on October 30, 2015. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.

(LVO asked for 4 new photos of recommended size, I guess they didn't like the photos we sent with application)


My questions:

1. Can LVO ask for more documents down the road
2. Am I off of interview hook


PA visited Canada in 2013 long before marriage and wondering if this makes differencr for security/criminality check

I will appreciate if you can light on my request.

Regards

I agree with you. Two years already elapsed. My lawyer has also said I may have to wait longer time. I was doing business and never taken social assistance. I have my own home there jointly owned by my wife. My question is why they are not communicating interview decision to me although it was entered in the file one year back! Can I approach them for interview waiver at this point explaining in details the reasons for non fulfilment of residency obligation(everything is already in file).Could it be a some kind of false allegation received by Mississauga office other than the reason you mentioned? Thank you for your time Eagle333.

Hello sdh,


Am I off of interview hook?

Not at all, your file will probably be reviewed for the first time between 27th of January 2016 and 1st March 2016. Around this time your file will go through eligibility screening.

Can LVO ask for more documents down the road?

Yes, they might request more documents at the time of paper screening; if your file does not stand at the frequency CIC would want it to be. You might receive an email or letter for either interview or more documentations.

How long was PA in Canada for? how did PA leave Canada (deportation or routine Exit?)

Hasan9999,

You are a PR applicant but not like others, They have made a specific profile of you through that negative recommendation. I don't believe that you will turn down that interview decision. You can try and let me know how it goes. They have placed your file in the non-routine cases. Some day you will get your visa just be patient.
