Approx 30 calendar days. I requested mine on Sep 6 and received it on Oct 9 (a couple of days delayed due to the long weekend).

Why not provide the bank letter via CSE?
Actually I realised later that the other bank lettwr I attached with my app includes the maturity dates. Not sure why they have doubts about it. Does anyone have an idea as to how much the time to maturity should be at the max.?

Good day experts and fellow hopeful applicant.
I have a question. I received PPR 9/10/2018 but no Visa office was specified where to send our passport to. Though I was told to use VFS but no Visa office indicated. What do I do. I am Nigerian.

Hi Fellow Nigerian,
Congrats on your PPR.
If you're based in Lagos, or in the SW take your passport to VFS Lagos (if you're in Abuja or in the North, go to the one in Abj) and submit it there. They'll transmit it to the Accra visa office and once it's approved and returned you'll pick it up from the VFS you submitted it to.
You should go along with some money because you'll definitely pay for the transmission.
As at the last I heard, transmission fees was N15k.
Congrats again.

Hi guys,

Can you please have a look at this and tell me what do you think is going on?

FSW - outland - Ontario PNC (expires 30-Oct-2018)
AOR: 12-June-2018
Medical passed: 28-June-2018
Primary visa office: London

GCMS notes request # 1: 07-Aug-2018
Notes received: 07-Sep-2018

GCMS notes request # 2: 07-Sep-2018
Notes received: 10-Oct-2018

Application status: in progress
Elygibility: NOT started
Security: NOT started
Criminality: NOT started
Medical: passed

Application Assignment:
Assigned to: RC-XXX
Assigned by: LJXXX
Due Date: 18-Aug-2018 --- what does this mean ???

Alsi, from both GCMS notes it appears that my file was last updated on 19-July-2018. Which means that no one looked at my case in the past 3 months!

No specific reason is mentioned. However, towards the end of the report, there is a note saying:

Review type: case processing agent application: xxxx, RECOMMENDATION: please review information regarding visa refusal.

This note was created on 12-July-2018

I believe the agent is referring to a visit visa refusal i declared when i filled up the visa refusal question in my application. I applied for a visit visa to New Zealand and it got rejected for no specific reason.

Is there anything I can do to speed up the process, i cant believe that no one touched my file since mid July, and my PNC will expire on Oct 30th.

Thank you in advance.

Hi guys! This is an urgent question, I would greatly appreciate fast replies. Based on the above post, I am a bit worried as I was refused a visit visa to Canada back in December 2017 when I applied from the U.S. My husband is the primary applicant and I am the dependent applicant.
I recently found out that my consultant did not mention my visa refusal in our PR application. She said there's no interdependence between the visa refusal and our PR application. Is this true? Or should I raise a CSE and send a letter of explanation to IRCC?

This is not true at all. PR application is completely different but you must declare your immigration history as a part of admissibility test. This is a big sign of the ignorance of your consultant. I hope she did not messed up your application in any other section.

There are two specific question regarding this in the statutory declaration section of the Electronic Application for Permanent Residence. The questions are-

"Has XXXX been refused refugee status, or an immigrant or permanent resident visa (including Certificat de selection du Quebec (CSQ) or application to Provincial Nomination Program) or Visitor or temporary residence visa to Canada or any other country ?"


"Has XXXX ever been refused a visa or permit, denied entry or order to leave Canada or any other country?"

You must answer "YES" to these questions if you had a visa refusal. But in your case if the consultant ignored them and answered "NO" then it may get considered as misrepresentation by the Visa Officer, because hiding immigration history is an offense. If you read any GCMS notes available in this forum or in google search, you would see a section called "Integrated Search (FOSS/GCMS)" which is the database search of previous visa application history.
I would strongly recommend you to raise CSE and inform IRCC about it and order GCMS notes after two weeks to check the progress of your file.

Hope it helps, Good Luck!

I had a Chinese visa rejection which I did not disclose as it was due to incomplete documents.
But, you should check as your’s is Canadian visa rejection. Also your reason for rejection will decide how important it is for you to disclose (as per what my consultant told me).
