Hi
@legalfalcon, need your help to understand at which stage is my application and when the RFV email should pop-up.
I got all notes in hand - CBSA, GCMS and CSIS, so can share my findings. I honestly think that my application has passed all stages, including Security and now it's pending RFV email for unknown bureaucratic reasons.
1)
COPRs were issued: On 8-Feb-23 I noticed on the new tracker that all stages were marked as green for both me and wife (besides her Eligibility, but she was a dependant added post-AOR) and COPRs popped up - both their numbers and expiry dates. From GCMS notes issued on 14-Mar-23 (latest document I have) I can see that the last note on 4-Feb-23 says "
Final decision: Satisfied applicant meets the requirement of A11.2. Met selection EE passed. ADMISSIBILITY **FINAL DECISION** Satisfied applicant meets IRPA requirements. Application approved. Client is overseas, please send RFV to client."
Also I can see in FINALIZE APPLICATION, DOCUMENT ISSUANCE section the same COPRs as on the tracker. And I also see print queue PQ-COPR-6023-14.
2)
Security was passed: CSIS note was a 1-pager saying for both PA and dependant "
A record search based on the requested information provided by you was completed and we were unable to locate any record regarding MY NAME". This phrase had a code above with 2022 in it, so I assume that the Security record check was done in 2022. When I check the GCMS notes I can see Security redacted and "s.21" mark in the upper right corner. When I check CBSA notes I also see no status next to Security, but I see that record search was done by the immigration officer on the same day when COPRs were issued and there are no SubActivities to Security. I assume that his remark about "IRPA met" means that he only did non-comprehensive Security and it was fully passed. Status on application in all notes is "Final: Approved"
The problem is that we are already waiting 2.5 months since these COPRs were technically issued, but we didn't receive RFV. I wrote multiple webforms to VO, but they had no effect - they just responded me couple of time with something like "it's still processing". The thing is that these COPRs expire, so now their validity is <4 months, by the time they'll actually be issued they might be valid <1-2 months, which is ridiculous.
Do you consider from these notes that we're still missing some processing stages? What could be the reason for us not to get RFV in almost 3 months? Can Print Queue nr. for COPR suggest us the month when its queue is supposed to be reached (like could "6-023" in PQ-COPR-
6023-14 mean June 2023?)
