Raise a CSE if you do not hear back in a few days.
Hello Sir @legalfalcon
i got news that my file is approved even here in cairo but my file entered a new level of security by ottawa and it's unofficial as my ss is completed in file and they finished their work and waiting for security clearance from Ottawa. do you have any idea what is that new level of security that's done unofficially and how long does it take?
can it be related to my job as a religious edu. worker?

Update: on the 25th October, I received another PPR email today at 10 p.m. Ottawa time with the same instructions, does that have any meaning? my passports are already in the embassy.

So in one portion of the
It definitely could be a mistake on the end of IRCC. However, you should see if you were given points for the education you have claimed. If you were awarded points, this is moot and immaterial.
GCMS, under FSW MEC, the points against 'Client highest level of Education' is mentioned 126. But in another section against FSW MEC, the points against 'Client highest level of Education' is mentioned as 23.
In the final status, for eligibility it does say Passed. But I am not sure if the points allocated are correct. Could you please advise.

You do not need any old medical history. When you go for your medicals and your panel physician will conduct additional tests as per what is prescribed by IRCC. The most conclusive test is the chest x-ray for any active TB. For latent TB he may conduct a skin test or a blood test. But, there is nothing to worry about. I am writing a detailed blog post on medicals which will be up in a few hours at https://www.getgcms.com/blog/

feel free to check in a few hours.
Sir eagerly waiting for your blog on this matter when it will start???

Hi @legalfalcon,

Thank you for your time and help. Do you have any idea how the PPR email is triggered for applications that are approved? From a call with CIC, my application is already approved since 3-Oct-17, it has been more than 3 weeks and there is no PPR. In contrast, a few other applications approved later already receive PPR. I wonder, does the officer have to do something to trigger this mail and if he/she forgets/ignores to do it, a mail will never be sent even though it is approved for some time?

Thanks a lot for your input.

Hi @legalfalcon i just noticed in mycic, the status of my submitted WP applucation changed to 'updated'. Rather i couldnt find any changes, msg or email. Later it turned back to submitted. Is it system glitch, or upcoming changes not reflected yet?

Hi Legalfalcon,

I called the CIC agent a couple times and both times they said they couldn't view my application as it is in London Visa Office, and that I need to email London.

Is this true that they cannot view applications which have been moved to other VO's?

Thanks @ legalfalcon for reply
According to GCMS notes Medical and Criminality Passed .
A 11.2 Met
R 10 Passed
Its showing on the date 22nd August when file transfer to local visa office...Eligibility and Security not started . So how do i know my Eligibility is passed @ CIO. Does A 11.2 met signifies eligibility passed. Kindly share your views .
Yes, A11.2 = eligibility. The eligibility takes place in 2 stages. First a case analyst will review and make a recommendation. This will be seen in your notes in the last few pages. This recommendation is then reviewed by an officer and the eligibility (A11.2) is passed.

Hi @legalfalcon

I am a permanent resident of singapore. Do i need to attach the copy of singapore resident card in the passport/travel document section while applying for PR?

Thanks
Yes. This is not required when you create a profile. This is for post ITA application.

If your application is approved there is nothing to worry about. Since your application would have been at LVO, and the SS finished at Ottawa, it is CPC Ottawa who will make the final review. This is what your file was referred to Ottawa. The agencies which do the security only make a recommendation. The IRCC is the one which makes the final determination.

As regards the PPR, that is a great sign. CONGRATULATIONS!

If your PP is already at the LVO, raise a CSE and also send an email to CPC Ottawa - CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca

Keep me posted. All the best

If the eligibility is passed you are all good. Nothing to worry about.

The points are calculated for two things-

CRS - see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/express-entry/grid-crs.asp

MEC - http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/apply-factors.asp

An applicant has to meet, both the MEC and CRS to be eligible.

If you did give them a letter of invitation claiming that you will take care of them, then it is your responsibility to ensure that they do not over stay. If anyone of them claims asylum, then it will be decided on its merit. However, if you are aware that your relatives will overstay, or will violate any immigration laws, you should immediately inform IRCC so that it does not put you in trouble.
