Hi, My AOR is March 25th 2018 and no response since April 30th when they requested me to upload some supporting documents. I uploaded the documents but since then haven't heard anything. I requested for GCMS which was due by October 17 but got no response on it as well. It was communicated on email twice that we have made a note of it that committed timelines are missed and we are expediting your GCMS request. Any idea what is happening or what shall be done to get some clarity on application status?? In addition I received an email from IRCC stating "On December 12, 2018, you’ll see a progress bar for your Express Entry application."
Exact same time line AOR MArch 25th. Still waiting. No response from them. Calling agent only tell me that file is in process, everything looks good. nothing to worry. Even after 8 and half months can not get proper answers from Immigration.

Got this too. I am wondering what this will be. Will be very helpful if they do provide this for every candidate-whereby each application there is a rough timeline.

Wishful thinking-but its necessary

No progress since the first day. Not even a ghost update.
I am a little surprised because all my job responsibilities and work experience letters were as per requirement AND additionally provided on a company letterhead (for all my firms - US and India). I've also provided them with WES conversions and degree certificates for my undergrad and grad schools in India and US.

My consultant seems to think the reason for the delay is because I am currently residing in the US. Is that a reasonable justification?

Additionally, I have called them up and their response has been - "Please be patient. The officers are working to the best of their capabilities."
I've only recently requested for GCMS notes but am quite surprised frankly at how broken the system seems to be.

Any advice?

Hi,
Only your gcms notes will let you know what is the problem in your file.
For now the only thing you can do is waiting for it then we will be able to help you.

Hi guys,

Today I received an email saying "Your application now has a progress bar. The progress bar shows the time elapsed since we received your application. It gives you an estimated completion date based on our latest processing times." However, my application is not showing any progress bar neither additional information. Did you get the progress bar?

I have got the same email. But now I am not able to sign in. I get redirected to the main page on CIC as soon as I try to log in
So probably it might take a while to update, I think.
Hope for the best..!!
