Dear Applicant,

In order to continue processing your application, we require the additional documents listed below. Please send clear legible photocopies rather than the original documents unless otherwise specified. If the documents are not written in either English or French, please enclose a certified translation with a photocopy of the original document.

They want a new police check, i will get one tomorrow on next day delivery. Am i getting closer or this is going to get a long time?
How frustrating :(

Is your police check more than 12 months old?
..
They advise a 4 month wait to process additional documentation.

Wonder if the Royal Baby will slow down our applications any further - any slower and they'd be going backwards LOL.

I am in the UK and will most likely be landing at Montreal, for Ottawa.

I do wish everyone good luck. This is truly stressful and I know a lot of people are in very tough situations incl being apart from loved ones and the financial strain that can come with it too.

Scottish Maple, my thoughts are, and have been for sometime, with you. For my own sanity, I will not be checking in here so much, but I will keep an occasional eye out for your approval. Chin up :)

Good luck everyone ! :D

It only changed on Ecas for 7 days, that doesnt mean anything. It use to be that if a persons Ecas changed to in process about 2 days later it would show up as Decision Made. I wouldn't say 6 months was quick, if all this strike action stuff wasn't going on, 6 months would be considered normal.
