That's amazing.. if it works then I would love to join too...just don't want them to get annoyed. do they know if we call or ask for GCMS? There was another member here who spoke almost the same way as you are and did almost the same thing regularly calling and updating, but I think the member disappeared... not sure what happened about the case?
Did you do your last medicals within the past 5 years? I read about a public policy that expires Oct 2024 where PR applicants IN Canada that were classed low risk after their last IME within 5 years don't need to do them again.
What is your timeline and when was your last medical? Did the 5 years time just expire recently?
So it may have just expired depending on the month in which it was done.. the call agents themselves wouldn't have known until the note came up in GCMS most probably.. and they will only tell you whats written there.
Our Member of Parliament has contacted them twice and also provided me with a supportive letter to submit on my behalf. In practice, MPs regularly reach out to Immigration for various cases, and in my second attempt, it took three weeks for the MP to communicate with Immigration about my application. Ultimately, the immigration officer has to evaluate applications based on their established criteria and priority weighting. For instance, I believe the government may prioritize organizing Ukrainian individuals in the H&C program over accepting them as refugees due to cost considerations, similar to the case with Afghan individuals. Conversely, they likely distribute applications to different offices for aspects such as criminality, security, or medical evaluations to prevent overwhelming any single office with a rush of applications, considering their broader responsibilities. While you have the freedom to take any actions you deem fit, it's important to acknowledge that the immigration officer possesses wisdom and extensive experience in dealing with such cases.
It is incredibly rare to get a response after 3 months especially with current processing times. Such a fast response tends to come it this is not the first application or if there is an exceptional situation where it is such an emergency that it may be a life/death situation. One should expect a current H&C case to take 1.5-2+ years these days with no guarantee of approval.
24 months is not unusual especially if processing has been started. Think it would be hard to justify a writ of mandamus at that point. If 3 years then I would consider writ of mandamus if you weren’t slowly going through processing like for example adding more and more medical information if being asked to provide more medical testing or further information from your doctor.
Of course they know how many times you called and request for gcms but won’t harm the application at all.
Do you know who is this? I want to send a message regarding the results of application
As I said it’s hard to believe but this was happened multiple times.
By the way I have requested to expedite my file and MP office is doing on behalf me.
