Hi @legalfalcon,

Firstly thanks a ton for helping me and a lot of others put up EE applications with ease.
Following is my status:
AOR - 26 Dec 2018
MEP - 6 Feb 2019
Applicants : Me (Primary) + Spouse
No update since then. Seeing current trends, looks like we can get expect a PPR by June 2019.

[COLOR=#000000]Need some help on the following scenarios - [/COLOR]
a) I am planning to apply for L1B Visa for US. Our Canada EE Medicals expire only by December. So if we get PPR before going to US, would we need to inform IRCC for any changes provided we would plan our landing in Canada from US instead of India later in the year.

b) My wife plans to move to Canada with PR and start working there. I am primary applicant and I am planning to work in US for a year or two before moving to Canada. For us to keep PR status valid, both of us are required individually to cover 2 years out of 5 years in Canada? What if only she does and I dont, can she apply for the citizenship later on (which requires 3 years in canada out of 5) ?

If you change your country of residence while your application is in progress, you will have to inform IRCC. Once your application is approved, and you can land in Canada from any country.

If an individual does not meet the PR requirements, then their PR status will be revoked.

You will have to wait for a determination on your driving record from Victoria.

I did show a list but the officer told us we need specific numbers and prices and that we can submit a list during our next trip. Does that mean its over for our list of goods to follow?
It will depend on the discretion of the officer you meet at the border. If its not too many goods, they will just allow you. You can also inform the officer about what the CBSA officer informed you when you landed.

Hi @legalfalcon . My AOR is March 18 2018 my medicals expired on Feb 28, 2019. My file is in at sydney nova Scotia. CEC inland applicant. U have not yet received remedical or extension request. I have come across lot of ppl files moving after completing one year. Any idea what can be done in my case. Thanks . OlePle give in your inputs
If your eligibility is met, then most likely you are stuck in security screening and nothing much can be done about it. Usually when the meds expire, IRCC will send a re-med request when your SS is nearing an end.

@legalfalcon i received my CBSA notes and they are showing me under Security Screening since Nov 2018.

In which order is SS processed. CSIS and then CBSA or CBSA and then CSIS?
The request is sent to CBSA and CSIS together. After CSIS concludes its report, the report is sent to CBSA, which will then conclude its findings and send both the reports to IRCC.

Thank you so much for your reply @legalfalcon! Do you think we should send her pay stubs... now as they never asked for it and every time that we asked for an update they said the file is under review and they will let us know if they need additional information. Also, do you think it is normal for it to take two years to pass the eligibility?? Thank you so much for your time!
Two years is a very long time. You should send the paystubs and see.

Dear All,

My AOR is 12th Sep 2018, MEP Cleared on 9th Oct 2018, IP1 on 10th Oct 2018

Ordered GCMS on 4th Jan 2019, Received on 29th Jan 2019
Eligibility: Recommended Passed
Security: Not Started
Criminality: Not Started
Info Sharing: Complete


Got Ghost Update / ADR Letter on 19th Feb 2019: They requested Supplementary Information Request for Students (SIRS) Form along with Resume. I really don't understand why they requested SIRS since I have not applied for student visa nor I am currently studying.

Also Background status changed to IP2 ( We are processing your background.......) on 19th Feb 2019

Uploaded the Additional documents on 21st Feb 2019, status as of now is " Not Applicable"

Called them on 18th March, agent told the below:
Eligibility: Still reviewing whether you meet the eligibility
Security: Background verification's are currently in process
Criminality: Completed

With the above timeline, am I under Security Screening?
@legalfalcon

Planning to order GCMS after easter holidays!!

Thanks in advance.
Regards
Your security is not yet started from your notes received on Jan 29. So I doubt that you are in SS yet.

Hi, @legalfalcon,
I'm sorry to bother you and other folks on this forum, but I would greatly, immensely appreciate if you could check two of my posts #8962 and #8963 (from this Monday), and possibly comment on the RR we are facing due to PA's previous Canadian visa refusals. If I understand correctly, the Activity section in the GCMS notes should be read from the last to no.1 activity, meaning that the no.1. is the most recent activity/status/stage.
Here is what Activity section looks like in our notes, and please take notice that in No. 1 Selection-EE Econ new value is cancelled!?
What is this regarding, does that mean the application is cancelled, or some further action is cancelled, what would be that activity? Is further investigation regarding the review required status cancelled? What is going on - I'm trying to be positive, but there is no similar situation info on this forum, and I am losing hope.

Here's the GCMS content:
Throughout Activity 1-7 sections Created Date, Created by, Update Date, Updated by are left blank.

- ACTIVITY: 1
UCI, Name: PA Surname, Name

Sub-Activity/Activity Type: Selection-EE Econ
Field Name: Status
New Value: Cancelled
Office: Montreal Immigration

- ACTIVITY: 2
UCI, Name: PA Surname, Name
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: Selection-EE Econ
Field Name: Status
New Value: Not Started
Office: Montreal Immigration

- ACTIVITY: 3
UCI, Name: PA Surname, Name
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: Selection-EE Econ
Field Name: Status
New Value: Review Required
Office: Montreal Immigration

- ACTIVITY: 4


UCI, Name: Dependent Surname, Name
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: Security
Field Name: Status
New Value: Not Started
Office: GCMS-System

- ACTIVITY: 5


UCI, Name: PA Surname, Name
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: Security
Field Name: Status
New Value: Not Started
Office: GCMS-System

ACTIVITY: 6
UCI, Name: Dependent Surname, Name
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: RCMP Screening
Field Name: Status
New Value: No Reportable Trace
Office: Centralized Intake Office

ACTIVITY: 7 

UCI, Name: PA Surname, Name
Sub-Activity/Activity Type: RCMP Screening
Field Name: Status
New Value: No Reportable Trace
Office: Centralized Intake Office


At the beginning of the notes (generated end of Feb) there is also this:
App. Assignment: Assigned To: RC-2710, Assigned By: (code), Due Date: mid 2019/03.
Plus bare in mind that the App. was last updated (by Case Analyst) beginning of 2019/02.

Would anyone please comment, I'm deep in spiral of doubt and worry.
Thanks for understanding and your time!!

Hi @legalfalcon
If Intra Company Transfer work permit is applied as GATS: Intra-Company Transferee – Senior Manager for position Computer and Information Systems Manager (NOC: 0213) (LMIA exempt) and get approved, would it qualify the employee for 50 points (Job Offer Express Entry) after one year on work permit in Canada assuming he can provide required documents like offer letter etc?

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/documents/offer-employment/lmia-exempt.html
Above link states ICT with specialized knowledge will be considered for LMIA exempt job offer points. Thats why I have this doubt.
