Some clarifications on sequence of steps

[vis1]

Is the following a complete list of steps in the right order. Starting with "in process".

ECAS update to "in process"
RPRF payment request
Additional Documents (if needed - not for everyone).
Request to submit passport (is it for everyone, or only those who require a visa?)

How long, approximately, does it take between each step for inland applicants to CPP Ottawa? The current threads are just too messy to make any sense of it all.

Thanks.

Your application will go "In Process" once you have additional documents submitted, which may be in the form of a PCC or your Background Information form. You might be asked for additional documents after "In Process" only if they think your marriage is not genuine or if you have served the military or have been affiliated to any political party, have a criminal record, are on the list of people from the intelligence, lived in a country which is has a history of violence and other activities and so on, if you have no red flags then you will not be asked for any additional papers (This rarely happens).

Now I will tell you exactly how they process your application.

Once they have all your papers, then your file will go into "In Process"

You will be asked to submit your RPRF fee after a week

Give it another 3 months, you will get a Passport Request

In another week your ECAS tracker will show Decision Made on your application.

You send your passport to the concerned office, which would be CPP-Ottawa for Inland applicants, and will receive your COPR in about a week or two.

GO out of the country anywhere and then land again or you can call your local immigration office and set an appointment with them.

Hi immigrationaspirant

one question, who checked that all paper is complete in order to turn into "in Process", CIO-NS or CPP-Ottawa?

 

[immigrationaspirant]

NS-CIO checks if you have all the required papers. Once they are satisfied then they will transfer your file over to Ottawa and then you will see "In Process" and then a week after you will get an RPRF request, if you haven't already paid it.
