[melissaj]

Means you're basically done, congrats.

Nice to see a few people getting DM in this thread recently from May/April 2017, looks like they're on track for the 12 months,

Hi Oldmacwright,

Thank you!

Do you know how long it will be before I hear from them?

Hi Oldmacwright,

Thank you!

I'm not sure but from what I read here it's pretty fast, they should be in contact soon or so to arrange the landing interview.

Sure some more senior members will tell you more details, we applied August so happy to see cases like yours move along speedily as you were out of status too? (like my wife).

Yes I was so worried about the out of status part.

Thank you and good luck. I hope you hear something soon as well.

I was march 13 too. It would have been my 1 yr mark too but got PR in 7 months. Last October ......(inland)

Did you do your application yourself or a lawyer, or does it make any difference in processing time?

I did it myself. Took me like a whole month to get it done and it was stressful.
But i dont think it matters how u do it. My case was straightforward and was married for 2 years before i sent in my application. I got only SA. No Aip. No DM. Just a call from an officer and landed two days later.

Update - May 2017 applicant

Hi all,
I would like to thank everyone for sharing their timelines and stories. It really helped me stay positive. I just received AIP this morning and I have been scheduled for a confirmation of permanent residence interview. My timeline is below:

1. Application received: May 23, 2017
2. Sched A requested: June 21, 2017 (I sent PCCs with my app)
3. Medical requested: last week of Jan, 2018 (submitted in three days and medical passed in One Week from the date of submission {as seen on my CIC} )
4. No SA email yet.
5. AIP: March 16, 2018 (received an email in my CIC profile requesting an appointment with a local IRCC office for confirmation of permanent residence)

So there might not be updates on ECAS and you may not receive documents/correspondence in the same order as others. Each case is indeed unique and eventually you shall all get there. Stay positive and continue achieving your goals!

Thanks again everyone and good luck!

Congratulations! That is a really great news As my application was received on May 26th which is only a couple of days later than yours and I also received my medical request after you - the first week of Feb. So I am hoping my AIP will come within this month!! Thank you so much for sharing your information. Good luck with your landing interview!

Hello everyone I have been reading this forum for some time now and I just decided to join today. I am May 2017 applicant I submitted upfront medical. Since they asked for police reports June last year I hear nothing since from CIC. I do hope to hear something soon.

Good morning all,

As explained in my earlier comments, I have a representative so most updates CIC sends me goes to them. However, I have access to my online account which only give brief information.

Last night after 12pm I signed in and check my status and it says Decision Made (I got excited ), then I signed in my husband's account and its says :

Sponsorship Application Status: Decision Made
Permanent Residence Application Status: Decision Made (even more excited)

I did not received any email or letter stating that a Decision has been Made.

Can someone please what this mean? Should I be excited? How long after DM is made does CIC informs you? Thank you in advance!

Congratulations.
It is good news . I am out status as well . When one of us get this it’s relive and it’s good they r moving.

Oh I know. I taught mine would be longer because I was out of status for almost 5 years, but I am grateful if it a success. I still don't know whats next. Hang in there. That's all I did and although it was overwhelming I had to go through it. I wish only success for you and everyone else thats going through this process.

Congratulations, what is really bugging me is that we've received this email stating that "We are pleased to advise you that processing of your application has been completed. The Canada Immigration Centre in Etobicoke IRCC will contact you to arrange an appointment for the finalization of your permanent resident application.", but no further information.... No date for the interview just this request to wait for a contact.....

***My timeline is on my signature.

Any update of a date set for a interview. .I got a buddy waiting also for a date

Goodevening everyone.

Just a quick question,
Me and my husband were planning of temporary renting a place near his work that was own by his company. I probably also get a job down there. So basically, we are just going to stay there during the weekdays and back to his parents house on weekends. And also we are only planning of being there just before winter, cause my husband do only seasonal job.

Was it consider changing address?
Do i need to inform CIC about this or there will be no problem since the address we provided them which is my husband's parents house, where we live now was really our permanent address?

Thankyou for the help guys.

Hi guys can anyone answer this.pls. thankyou so much

Hello, I'm May 11 in land applicant. They requested my Schedule A and a copy of my passport teo days ago. They also asked me to use WebForm to upload my documents, which I did, but I forgot to date the Schedule A. I signed but did not date it, what can I do now?

 

[loubegga]

yeah i think i saw dec 9 dec 12 dec 14 and dec 2os got theirs..but i think no one from 11 yet ..lol so yeah hofefully next week

Anyone know if Dec applicants who have had OWP approved sent as part of the application or separate to Vergeville?

Hi guys can anyone answer this.pls. thankyou so much

i don’t think it’s necessary to tell cic if you will only stay there temporarily, specially you will still go home in the weekends. as long as you don’t change mailing address or moved permanently i think there is no need.

I received my OWP in the mail on Wednesday. I scooted down to Services Canada and had a SIN within 15 minutes!

It looks like wrong-fee-paid OWP applications are taking just under three months from the date Vegreville receives it. It is taking less than a week between the approval email and the physical mail arriving at your door.

I struggled to link my OWP and only managed it by eventually calling CIC. It turns out that CIC did not capture my passport number on my OWP application, so the trick was to use the city of birth exactly as I had entered it on my application (which was City, State and not City). For anyone struggling to link an OWP application, try not using the passport #.

PR App Rec'd: 10-Oct-2017
AOR: 05-Dec-2017
OWP App Rec'd: 18-Dec-2017 (2nd time - wrong fee)
OWP approved: 9-Mar-2018
OWP received: 14-Mar-2018

Good luck to everyone still waiting on their OWPs!

Congrats on the work permit! Must be a relief!
