Dear, it wud be great , if u share major details like stream, aor, mep date etc ... without checking against any cic sources like gcms notes, predicting on the progress will currently be like a weather forecast prediction - there are chances for ppr to arrive early with possible occassional slight delays.

Really eager to hear gud news from you!! Cheers

If all ur docs are in order as per cic requirements then u can probably think of getting ready to pack and researching on methods to settle hassle free.. For usa applicants process is extremely fast.. say approximate 2 months... cheers!!!

What stage are you, do you have your AOR? If you have your AOR and have 3 months left, depending what stage you’re currently in for PR, why don’t you apply for your bridge now? They say 30 days before is the deadline but I wouldn’t cut it that close. Start the process now.

Yes i do have AOR. agreed on your point but my concern if i'm going to apply before 30 days and got approval my PR before CIC starts my bridging work permit then can i do decline my process for bridge work permit and get refund?

Understood. Totally a personal decision. If I were you to avoid risk of cutting things close I would apply now and at least have it. There will be less anxiety on your part as there is no guarantee when you’re get PPR or CoPR. I don’t know when a bridged application can be canceled, since it takes 30 days to process I would think there wouldn’t be time to cancel and get a refund

You can apply for BOWP even a day before your old one expires, I would suggest you to apply for it simultaneously with PR application. Reason being you will be out of any kind of stress and when you apply for your PR they do a background check and when they will see you have applied for BOWP it will make you look good.

The status was ADR at the time of request for rfprf but that staus changed the very next day as soon as i uploaded the payment receipt.

Do tell us about the situation on ur end as well so that we all can be symbiotically be present for each other in this phase :)
Hi sure,

Stream: FSW-O
Applicants: 2
AOR / BGC "are processing" (IP2?) : Aug 3
MEP / Bio letter : Sep 6
Bio completed : Sep 10
BGC "in progress" (IP1?) : Sep 24​

I notice that for applicants whose bio are required, BGC stages are reverse of other/normal applicants, from "are processing" to "in progress". So is "in progress" the new IP2, since all applicants will be required of bio in the future, or is it still IP1 as usual? I guess only time will tell.

ITA - 8th August
AOR - 15th August
IP1 - skipped - went straight to IP2
IP2 - Unknown date
Medical passed -13th sept
Biometrics requested same day
Biometrics taken - 20th sept
Biometrics completed on profile -20th sept

In regards to IP1, it seems we have skipped this as I have; ''we are processing your background check'' and this changed from being in ''progress'' before we even had our medical passed.. interesting

Wonder what stage will be next..?

Hello All,

Thanks for all the responses.

I believe its a PPR. So what happened yesterday, Around 3PM EST i got an update but nothing changed in my profile. So I called CIC and asked why is it like that, they told me that my eligibility was sent to an senior visa officer for approval. After that in the evening again i got an update but nothing changed in my profile ( 2 updates on the same day but no change in the profile) so i called CIC again and they said it is a good news 'your application got approved'.

After few hours I got an email from "IRCC.CPCO-FinalRequest-CTDO-DemandeFinale.IRCC@cic.gc.ca" with subject line as Ready for visa with the instructions to submit my passport. But still there is no change in my profile. My profile is still in IP2 stage.

So can someone explain me what my status is ? its in PPR stage ? when will the status in my profile stage ? Can I trust this email ?

Thanks in advance.

-Sharru
Congratulations buddy. You just got your ppr. Your profile will be updated when you get your copr. Will changed the Approved.
Congrats once again
