Actually I am inland applicant and when I call them they told me it is in process .Last month they asked rprf fees so it is not assurance.Someone told me if you got rprf fees to submit u r near the medical is it true
Again RPRF can even be paid upfront or before you send your papers to Federal.

Sorry to hijack your conversation, but when I called CIC about 2 weeks back, the agent was upfront enough to tell me that most of the processing happens towards the end of processing timeline. Maybe that's why they have such a huge processing timeline. Like you wait in the queue for the initial 12 months or a year, post which your processing starts. Just my guess though!
That is my guest too.

Applied 15 Nov 2017
AOR 06 Nov 2018
RRPF 02 Jan 2019
MR 03 Jan 2019

Hi guys,

Today I saw my ECAS status changed to " Decision Made", but I haven't got any emails or updates on CIC yet. I guess I just need to wait for a few more days?

My application was delayed and here's my timeline, I am an inland applicant:

2017.09.21 AR
2017.12.18 FN
2018.04.17 material request, ME request
2018.05 MER and passed
2019.08.15 Medical extended and passed.
DM on ECAS today.

If your application is delayed, please call them. It really helps at least you would know someone is taking care. Good luck everyone!
Congrats!!

Do you know when your security started?

How come that it took you one year just to have an AOR?
I too have a similar situation. I applied in April 2018 but I received AOR in December 2018 ( eight months later). Although complete Application and all the required documents were submitted at the time of Application. Mine is a paper Application and in the AOR they clearly mentioned that they received my Application dated April, 2018, I hope my process starts from then. I see most of the applicants received AOR on an average of 3-4 months. I seriously don't understand these discrepancies.
