I sure hope so! I suppose I'm at least a couple of weeks away from this scenario given my mid-Dec AOR. It's these long periods of silence without updates that are hard to get through.
True. I don't mind waiting, but not knowing or having no updates is awful, especially as I've been reading that ip1-2 and na1-2 have been not as useful as before

Medical exam: no update
But application in progress, does anybody else have the same situation? I do not know why no medical exam update.

So, you've gone to IP1 already. Usually this means you have your MEP but it just hasn't been updated in the system yet. I suggest waiting till the end of the week.

Are you really applying from Greenland?!

An RPRF usually doesn't mean anything this early on in the game except that IRCC is ready to proceed with the next steps of your application and wants your money before it does. There was a time last year when the RPRF came much later in the processing stages and usually meant that a PPR was imminent.

I received my RPRF last week, my aor being Dec 5th. Might not mean anything. Have you received any ADR ?

Edit: quoted twice

About the RPRF.
I believe it was clearly mentioned if you paid RPRF along with the original $500 fee, it meant RPRF delays later on in the process wouldn't happen. So I still believe people who have paid RPRF early instead of later will have their PPR processed faster, just because the IRCC clearly mentioned that in the instructions.

It turns out, I'm actually in IP2 (or so it would seem).

We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.

Don't recall seeing this change at any point so can't say for sure whether it's been this since the start. Wasn't aware there was a wording difference

Since you're CEC-Inland it makes sense that your criminality was completed quickly. CEC-Inland applications tend to be processed faster than FSW-Inland. Please make a signature for yourself, create a profile on MyImmiTracker and keep us posted!

Any idea when i should expect an update please. Also i may need to move to India in the next few months (Currently i am in the US). Would that have any impact on the application?

I'd say give it till the end of the week and keep checking regularly. Dec 23/24 AORs started receiving their MEP yesterday. Also, I recommend you make a signature for quick and easy reference in the future.
You are right.
AOR: 21/12/2018
