Hello everyone, I am a fellow sufferer. My AOR is June 13, FSW-I. File has forever been in this center. Eligibility passed on July 26, no movement since. Criminality check In Progress, Security not even started :(

Is there a tracker/spreadsheet to maintain the status of all those whose files are in Montreal? Could someone share the link if there is one please?

Thanks!

Hi. Welcome to Montreal Family!

Thanks for sharing your details. There is no tracker but I track all cases manually. See this post https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/montreal-visa-office-lets-connect-here.575300/page-30#post-7275390

I will add yours as well.

Just a question. How do you know your criminality is in progress? Seems like you ordered GCMS notes. If your criminality is in progress then its more than we have seen in recent GCMS notes here where both security and criminality had not started for other members.

I have done research on that and I can tell you Canada is much much better. It feels bad when you see someone who applied 2/3 months after you receive PPR but I’m overall scheme of things Canada is much more streamlined and faster.

Having said that I know this information doesn’t help beyond a few hours. The anxiety lingers back.

Hold on fellows!

Yeah, Australia has become too tedious. Someone from this forum contacted me to enquire about Canada, even though he was already an Australian applicant. He said Canada is much organized.

Hi cansha..thanks for sharing the link and for adding my case details. Yes, the status is according to GCMS notes. It is sad to hear that criminality and security haven't even started for some applicants! Hopefully we'll all get our PPRs soon. Fingers crossed!

I am Inland and my eligibility was not even started based on my GCMS note received in August (generated in July). So, you are lucky. Do you know why your criminality is in progress? Did you submit RCMP report?

Haha...I am not sure 'why' my criminality is in progress (I am happy that it is), but I guess that's how it should be, Eligibility>Criminality>Security? I did not submit RCMP report. I just submitted Indian Police Certificate.
