PNP - PR - Jan-Feb-March 2015 Applicants!

[rhonny20]

Is there a 2014 version of that?

They are taking forever for medicals of feb and march applicants ( inland applicants)

They are taking forever for medicals of feb and march applicants ( inland applicants)

I think it s because they try to follow processing times.
I ve paid attention december applicants waited longer for aor (up to 4-5 months), thats why they got medical request in 2-3 weeks after aor.
Feb, march, apri, may applicants waited fir aor about 2 -2,5 months. That means after reaching 5 months since application received date we should hear from cio about medical request,
That is my calculation so far..

Buddies, Any advantage or disadvantage in doing Medicals before we receive request? Will it speed up and skip one step on waiting period?

Potential downside is that your application takes a long time, and your medicals expire before you're approved. Then you'll have to do them again.

For some applications it was not making any difference even after upfront medicals and RPR fee. But for some applications it did make difference. For some applications, MR and RPRF was asked quickly one after the other and got through. So i guess its all luck on which officer reviews the application fast in every step of the process.

Its all confusion but i think we may we get lucky if we do upfront (and we get an officer who processes the application fast)). Ya lot of ifs and buts while we wait on each step of the process.

Correct but nowadays its fast. It doesnt take more than 8-9 months. But yes may be we can do the medicals after 3-4 months of applying i guess if we still dont receive medical request. This timeline is not applicable for all cases. Again its luck on every step.

Yes, outland applicant.

AOR (ep&uci): June 2nd

Point of Express Entry was to try and have the turnaround be <= 6 Months, eh? Wonder how that's going.

Guess there is still probably so much backlog from 2014, but can't imagine the 6 or less Month turnaround will be taking effect anytime soon.
