Thread for July 2011 applicants

[Aneyshar]

Hi Aneyshar,
I agree, go for it.
Please add Medical done May 18. into the spreadsheet for the Bluesteam.

Thank you !!

Bluesteam, I dont have a column for "Medical done" in the spreadsheet, but if everybody wants it I can also add that.

Remember that you can also add that info to your forum profile.

I'd also like to know if any of the July applicants are applying to Quebec? Please let me know so I can add that info as well.

Thanks.

Hi Anna,
i wouldn't be distressed we just got our PPR from Moscow (applied in Feb 2011) so they only took 5 months with our file. If you had everything organized and there aren't any issues then just have confidence in your application. Those timelines were completely wrong for us.

Hope your file processes quickly!

ghausia50, did you get confirmation that your application was received in Mississauga? On what date was it received?

Also, did you mean the London VO when you wrote "UK"?

Let me know if your app made it before the end of July, I'll add you to our spreadsheet tracker

You can read all about it here http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/resources/manuals/bulletins/2011/ob326.asp

But this is from the CIC website.
All in-Canada and overseas offices must ensure that they dispose of all stocks of previous versions of the old IMM 0008 and corresponding documentation that were used when applying for PR. Any specific local instructions or links to the above documents must be modified or removed by July 18, 2011. Local contacts should also be made aware of the new PR application forms, corresponding instruction guides and supporting documentation. This may involve requesting the removal of paper forms which may be with honorary consuls, lawyers / consultants, host Ministry of Foreign Affairs offices, Service Canada offices, travel agencies, etc.

Previous versions of PR applications forms will continue to be accepted by CIC until March 31, 2012.
