PPR received - With or without Ghost updates

[myra20sharma]

Hi All,

Congratulations on receiving PR!!

If you have received your PPR in last few months, please spare sometime and share some details for those of us who are actually waiting without much visibility and lesser hope each progressing day.

I am creating this new thread to keep everyone like us, who either know they're approved and waiting for PPR or have received a ghost update and waiting for next, to stay on same page.

Please share whether :
1. You received any ghost updates and how many and at what span?
2. You didn't receive any ghost updates and straightway got a PPR?
3. You order GCMS and did it help?
4. You called CIC and was it any helpful?
5. Or anything that you think would be informative

It would take only few minutes to share few insights but would be really helpful for us!

Thanks in advance!

Regards
A hopeful yet restless applicant

Hi
I understand your frustration.

I was an inland applicant. (Vancouver) Came into Canada on IEC. Citizenship – New Zealand. Not sure what my NOC code is but I am a policy analyst.

This forum helped me a lot so here is my timeline:

ITA received May 16, 2018

AOR July 9

MED July 23

RCMP check requested July 24 (provided within one week)

Schedule A to be completed August 16 (did this ASAP)

No updates – ghost or otherwise until October 5th when I received a letter inviting for a landing interview on October 26. (Longest wait ever)

Attended this interview – it took about 30 min and at the end I got my stamp and COPR.

Currently awaiting PR card (47 days) processing time.

I did not call IRCC – every time I called I got frustrated with wait times. I did not order notes. I did check this forum and my email every day though.
