slight update after contacting my MP: while it shows it was recieved in Sydney, my latest gcms showed vancouver as primary and ottawa as secondary, so im not really sure -- maybe it transfered to sydney now?


  • The application was received at the Centralized Intake Office in Sydney (CIO), Nova Scotia on December 25, 2020.
  • The eligibility requirements assessment was finalized on April 22, 2021.
  • The medical examination results are on file and valid until November 25, 2021 for the applicants.
  • The criminality verifications are in process for the applicant.
    • a note added on file on May 19, 2021 indicates that the RCMP check for the principal applicant has been received.
  • The security verifications are currently valid for the applicants.
  • Due to COVID-19, IRCC is experiencing processing delays and we can’t provide you with accurate processing times for this application. Rest assured that we understand how important this process is for the applicant and are making all the necessary efforts to finalize the application as soon as possible.

Anyways, it does seem that as soon as someone reviews my rcmp certificate, it should be good to finalize, i dont think theres any concerns (heck even security is done)

Hi,your file looks good progress,it appears eligibility passed,security passed and criminality in progress.So if criminality passed,you just wait the final decision.But I can't know what's your Primary office now.

yea no idea haha, GCMS showed it was recieveid in ottawa, moved to vancouver and now this says Sydney! i requested another set of gcms early july, so maybe that will show where it is now. but yea, as soon as they decide to open it up again and finalize criminality (ive been noticing from this group that they are finalizing apps with rcmp requests received in feb/march) so hopefully not much longer, its been over 7 months already!

i noticed you also had rcmp request, so it will rpobably follow a similar path!

Have you sent a mail or call to your MP. If its a mail can u tell me what i need to sent Mine already 6 months completed
i emailed. -- when did you pass medical? i would say 6 month from that is a more accurate date, so give it a bit more time (look at the rest of us, its normal).
so for the email, i just described the situation in detail (date i applied, any movements -- for me they requested rcmp) and asked for a status update. there's complete templates somewhere in this forum/website.

good luck!
