Salam everyone,
I want to share my current situation and would like to hear your suggestions on it. Also this may help others to not make the same mistake I did.
Here is my timeline:

2. AOR 11-Dec-17 (RPRF paid upfront)
3. ADR 19-Dec-17
4. IP1 20-Dec-17
5. MED 21-Dec-17
6. NA2 21-Dec-17
7. IP2 28-Dec-17
8. PPR 03-Jan-18 (ALHUMDULILLAH)
9. PP submitted 04-Jan-18
10. PP sent to LVO Abu Dhabi 05-Jan-18
11. Email to query about addition of my newborn 05-Jan-18
12. ADR for new born requested & Cancellation of COPR 09-Jan-18
13. NA3 10-Jan-18 (What is the meaning of this status change)
14. IP3 11-Jan-18 (What is the meaning of this status change)
Well, it’s pretty self-explanatory up till PPR, but after than I emailed them enquiring about the procedure for adding my newborn, informing that the baby will be delivered mid-February 2018. BTW I shouldn’t done that, because, consequently they emailed me after 4 days saying:
“Thank you for informing our office of your intention to add a dependent child to your application. Please be advised that your COPR has been cancelled and your file has been re-opened for further processing. Please provide the required documents within 30 days after the birth of the child.”
Now I have mailed them again, requesting to not cancel my COPR. But I’m not sure now they will listen or not. Secondly, since I was hoping that I will receive my COPR before 20-01-18, I have also informed than of my plans to fly to Canada and deliver the baby over there, but now I don’t see that happening.
LEASON LEART: Don’t ever mail them, like I did, if you want COPR quickly, you will have plenty of time to ask questions once you receive COPR.
QUESTIONS: What should I do at the moment? And is the meaning of NA3 and IP3?
Just to be clear my background check states: “We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.”
