Thanks very much for your detailed response. I agree with you. I’m cautious about spending money on a lawyer to here the same results. Before knowing that I could request the gc notes myself I spoke with a lawyer and he mentioned that he could request for me for $500 and it was only after that conversation I googled it and realized that I could request them for myself for$5. They are just too expensive unnecessarily.
I did almost all the things you mentioned about. I’ve called CIC contact center multiple times, I now have a MP helping me call them monthly ( he gets more information than I get when I call the center. I ordered the notes from last year and still haven’t received it. The MP said he will email the Canada immigration office about my delay and get back to me in 2 weeks (hopefully that helps), he will also look into why I haven’t received the gc notes yet. Fingers crossed I will get some good news soon.
The cic call center always just tell me it’s in progress and I just have to wait. However, the MP said they told him that my eligibility is passed and they are doing criminality check now and security hasn’t started yet- but this is from last year i’m stuck in that stage. It’s still way more information than what I get from the call center.
A few weeks ago I call the call center and the agent told me she can’t see my file because it wasn’t done in Canada it’s in the Jamaica office.so I couldn’t ask any question. I wish I knew the questions you post above to ask. It’s strange because I applied in Canada and I’ve been here for the past 5 years. So I do t know why she thinks I applied in Jamaica. However, once it was in Trinidad and they told the MP they share workload with others- but i’m surprised the agents can’t see it if it’s in another country. I thought it would still be online.
Anyway, I will just wait to hear from the MP and be patient. Thanks again
