I think the applications submitted in September, October and November are respectively handed over to the different locations for processing. The applications with any location that are done quicker than others would be transferred to the certain department for the Decision Made review at first and update the status on ecas afterwards. Each DM rain could be a deadline on which all the applications with background check finished have to be cleared from the system and labeled as DM and going forward for PPR.I'm behind you for a few days (Sept 29). Also got a ghost and called, all done.
I just hope we get the DM before/by the next DM rain, which is on March. If they process the DMs backwards, from October 26th to September 8th, we may not make the cut...
