[Bandit Queen]

Are you from a country which needs biometric?

No I didn't have to. Do you?

 

[Bandit Queen]

Hi Have you applied for GCMS and if your security is going on you should order CBSA

Why would I order anything, when my application is approved?

 

[Bandit Queen]

Hi @Bandit Queen @tobs

AOR Sept 6th, FSW-O, US based.

I got the same update on December 3rd. My status changed from submitted to profile updated which again changed to submitted when I logged off and on. There was no change to any of the statuses inside the application. About an hour later, I got the same update but this time my ADR status had changed from NA to reviewing.

I called 4 day later and the agent said "everything looked good.....everything passed on the 3rd.... await further instructions by email... application still in CIO, Sydney and could be transferred to Ottawa". I'm not sure if this means "approved" and if I'm in the same boat as you ladies. I had ordered GCMS notes the day before and when I called some weeks before my eligibility was "met", criminality "passed" and security "in progress", application in CIO, Sydney.

What do y'all think?

I am not an expert. But from what I have read here, it is as good as approved. Sometimes it is approved at one place but sent to other VO which then sends the PPR email. In my case it has always been Sydney and they never said anything about having a secondary visa office or if it would be transferred elsewhere. I don't know when my security happened, between Nov 6 and December 6 it was 'not started' when I had asked. Today she said it is approved. Even eligibility was just 'Met' till December, 6 never heard if it was changed to passed. Hang in there you are in good shape at the moment. Ottawa is one of the fastest VO so you will have PPR before us. Good luck.

Can i try this number even though i'm in canada? I never got a chance to be connected to agent with 1-888-242-2100

When i dialed, The automated message is saying if you are in canada call 1-888-242-2100....so i hung up for now

Dear @ain88
Like I had posted earlier, wait for them to come to the part where they say, '... press zero to speak to an agent...'
I think you have 'liked' my post here https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-i...18-aor-join-here.581191/page-172#post-7447913 So you are aware about it

Yeah !!! We indeed had quite long wait and no idea about how long to keep waiting. But, this positive movements gives us hope. Wish you golden email in 2018 itself.
PS. My timeline is nearly same as yours, more precisely with difference of 2 days.

No I didn't have to. Do you?

No, I am not. I was trying to draw some pattern here. The Sep PPR today or yesterday was for someone who needed biometrics. Then you mentioned that your file was approved per your discussion on the phone and was wondering it was because you had to give biometrics. But you are not; which makes my "pattern theory" void; which is good for me . I'm so tired of waiting. After trying a few countries; I am truly hoping Canada will be "it" for me. Though my AOR is only in Sep; my actual wait for this "liberation" started in 2008. Anyway It's a long story and not very relevant to anyone here. But I want this PPR so bad

 

[Maxgord]

Well, the dream is that, after PPR, I'll find a job from my country of residence. I'll try to reach for any contacts + the mainstream job hunt drill.

If that doesn't work (which is likely), I'll probably be landing at Toronto, because of economic activity reasons.

You into construction/engineering?

No, I'm simultaneously into financial analysis/risk management/banking.
That's why it was so hard for me to choose my own NOC
