Worried...

Does anyone know how to find out which visa office your application is currently being processed in? I havent had an update since my medical passed update on the 23rd of November. So I was wondering if there was a way to find out what status my application was in (in greater detail than what is displayed when you login on the cic website).

Hi Ashish,

It was not updated till last weekend. I hope to get some update this week. Fingers crossed. I have seen that OINP cases take a bit higher time t

Thanks buddy.

Hey Bro,

You are right but recent trend shows they are processing PNP profiles faster as well. I am an OINP applicant too and my Meds was passed on 01-Dec-2017 and AOR was on 02-Nov-2017.

Hi Experts,
Today I got request for additional documents - Travel History.

 11XXXXXXXX - GAGAN DEEP SINGH:
 Travel History Info Form: Information on
Travel History Info Form: Information on your previous travel history (trip duration and purpose) including citizenship and resident document information.
 Travel form: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/forms/IMM5562E.pdf
Please upload these documents to your MyCIC account by: 2017/12/11.

The form has provision for maximum 6 trips. I have travelled around 11 times during last 10 years. Should I write down all trips on a plain paper, providing all needed information and attach after form ?

Do I need to provide passport copies (Current and old passport) as well? (Which i have already uploaded, during file submission)

Thanks in anticipation.

Below I will post some information which you may find useful going forward.

Some FAQ:

Q: How to find my visa office?

Q: Can you explain background status changes (by other forum member, not my):

A: Background statuses explained:

There are two different things. Application status remains in process until we complete stamping.

Regarding BG status - It will go through different stages and let me try to make it clear to you to avoid any further confusion.

Prior to March 7, CIC used to maintain the below BG status.

1. Not needed at this time (NN)
2. Not Started (NS)
3. In Progress (IP)

After March 7, they paraphase the above status as follows.

1. Not Applicable (NA) ( Old Status :: NN)
2. Next to step to conduct BG Check (NBG) (Old Status : NS)
3. In Progress (IP)

People in the threads are using the above status interchangeably. So, don’t get confused.

Now as far as BG process is concerned, it will go through the below trends. I’m using new status words for your reference.

Trend 1: NA -> IP -> NA -> IP
Trend 2: NA -> NBG-> NA-> IP

Some people who are submitting RCMP along with eAPR follows Trend 2 and rest Trend 1. I may not be 100% accurate. But this is what I noticed for CEC Inlanders.
Once the applicant at IP(2), he can expect PPR anytime soon.

Regarding at what stage BG will change??

STAGE 1:: After we submit our application, the BG status would be NA and it will be there until we see a change in Medical status (Passed).

STAGE 2:: After medical update is done, then agent at CIO will change our BG to IP or NBG. Then, he will start R10 check, Criminal checks.

STAGE 3:: After the above checks are done, then he will change BG to NA and our file moved to next stage for Eligibility assessment (A11.2) . Once he/she feels that we are meeting the Eligibility then he/she will provide his/her recommendation to Visa Officer and initiate the Security Clearance. At this point only our file will be moved from CIO to CPC.

STAGE 4:: Officer at Local Visa Office (LVO) will review the recommendation, Security clearance reports. Once he/she satisfies then he/she will approve the recommendation. Then our BG will be changed to IP again. This is where PPR(Passport Request) mails triggered to applicants.

I will post more as we progress.

Thanks!

Good Luck!

[Thinkerman]

I got a following reply on 1 November 2017,

"Congratulations. You are now a candidate for immigration to Canada.
You should think about how you will find a job in your field if you become permanent
resident. Starting now will give you and your family members the best chance at finding
a job that matches your skills, qualifications and work experience."

- IS THIS AOR ?

No. You should verify the email if it’s some sort of promotional email or not
