Dont want to pay these guys a penny more
If your back ground checks have not started and the status still shows in progress, then definitely you need to order GCMS notes. There are two possible reasons for this delay, your file may be at Montreal office (apparently they take minimum 5 and half months to start proceedings) or Your file may have tagged as "review required" which takes 6 months to a year now to be reviewed and finalized by an Officer. Also if your file is in "review required" queue then you may even get rejected for the vary reason which you are tagged "review required" for. So it would be wise to order GCMS notes and take action accordingly to prevent further delays or rejection!

Hey guys,

Finally got the golden email :)
One of the passport requirements is to have at least two blank pages in my passport.
Does this mean two blank sides (either facing each other or one in the front one in the back) or two pages with blank front and back for each page.
I know this is a stupid question, but I just wana make sure I understand it properly as my passport is almost full and it will take ages to renew it. I have only 30 days to send it to the VFS.
Thanks a lot in advance
Congratulations!!

The PPR data for June is looking HORRIBLE!!! Hope the next two days are better and may be a few PPRs are already on way which people will announce tomorrow.

June really needs 2-3 good weeks of PPR given that the 6th month for us is anyways half a month.

It’s horrifying for June applicants. Today also lot of July applicants got their pprs, those who moved to ip2 2-3 days back. I don’t know what’s going on and frustration is building up at speed of light.

One of my theories is that June probably has high %age of USA based candidates in Montreal. We know of 20/21 cases in Montreal (some not in list on other Montreal thread). If I look at other months we have only 7/8 known cases from May and July. One reason could be June applicants seem to be most active and proactive in figuring out their VO.

And many were assigned to Sydney post approval. Both VOs are really slow currently.

Whatever may be the case June seems to be getting short end of the stick.
