Where/what did you read that makes you think they won't send PPR after the 120 days? is this 120 days after you send the RCMP or 120 after they requested them? either way is really frustrated that they won't do anything on the file in a while. we sent the RCMP on June, if counting the 120 days then i have no idea when are they contact us back... 120 days after we send the PCC was Oct 23. this is not good news.
I feel your pain...
Well, I am not absolutely positive about them not doing anything until after the 120 days, but I did read that someone said that they thought that they will do another review on your application until after the deadlines for the submission of PCC's and Schedule A, etc. I did notice that in my last GCMS notes, when they updated that they had received our RCMP certificate that the assignment due date was November 21. 2017, the end of the 120 days of when our RCMP certificate was requested. I think others have said this is when they will look at your application again.
I am not holding out high hopes that they have looked at our app a whole lot since August 28. In the months before that, they did reviews on something about once a month. I just hope that after the 120 day deadline, that they will try to speed things up as they should be trying to meet the under 12 month processing time deadline as we probably all know they won't be doing much in the last 2 weeks in December and into early January with it being the holidays. We have submitted all documents, except if they ask us for a new PCC, which is expiring on November 13. However, my partner told me it's very easy to obtain one in Chile as one can just order it online and print it out. He has no past criminal record. I am just uncertain as to whether it will have to be translated to English again?
I don't know if they will still be asking us for an interview as we are heading towards 10 months in processing time at the end of this month. This is the only other thing which might slow us down still or if heaven forbid, they still need more proof of relationship status, which I saw them asking of another OP on the forum at the 10 or 11 month mark in processing.
I will be going to see my partner in Chile in 2 weeks time, but only for 2 weeks as I have to go back to work. I really hope no interview because I would want to go back there if they do and don't want to do it too close to the holidays as they jack up the prices of airfare.
I know you have been waiting even longer and need ARC too, which sucks.
I hope those of us left from the beginning of 2017 will hear "the news" before the end of the year.
