Nothing after that. Not even the BC in progress. Any suggestions plz
Be patient:) You have already had your medical requested so your application is being processed. You are one of almost 27K so things can’t happen as fast as you may want.

No. But EI is a taxable income as per CRC.
It is very clear in the application that EI will be substrated from your LICO amount even if it is taxable. should put in the caveat that it is EI not related to maternity leave or disability.
@robertp

Few pages back someone mentioned, cic will count EI income and also accepted on Twitter. I also called cic call centre and agent told me same.

People had these unrealistic expectations that files would be processed within a few months. CIC always said 13-24 months. Still plenty of 2018 applicants without PR yet. These things take time they raised the quota and have accepted almost 27K applicants. It is unlikely that the department grew dramatically to absorb the large volume of applicants from last year and this year. Don’t think that all PGP applicants will get PR in over a year but it takes 12 months to sponsor a spouse and 5-11 to sponsor a child. Brimming should be in line with these applications.
If you are referring me, I don't have unrealistic expectations and talking about the current trend. And yes IRCC recruited close to 70 extra agents this yr.

Most will be allocated to asylum cases. Replying in general but to the thread you were replying to.

Are you sure?
“These are very old posts but if you read the guidelines to filling out the financial evaluation forms it clearly says you must deduct EI (not maternity or disability related) from line 150 to qualify. Please reread the financial evaluation form.”

Believe it is in IMM5748.

IRCC twitter media corrected themselves, but later deleted the tweet.

Based on Immigration act 134 (1) and Exception (1.1), EI will be deduct from total income line150 in order to test income eligibility for PGP.
As the iRCC twitter person often reminds people he is only the social media representative. Unfortunately some of the agents can be wrong or there may have been a miscommunication. Unfortunately it seems as it has been identified that you won’t meet LICO if you subtract EI payments which is why they are asking for benefit documents. The application manuals have a ton of information included in them. Sorry.

@canuck78 you said the same thing to this 2018 applicant and her mom landed successfully in Jan 2019 ..

Hi everyone!
This is my first time posting in this thread. I've been following the thread though. I just want to share about regular EI and Maternity EI. I can honestly and surely say that both of those EI count as income. My total income(with my husband as a co-signer) includes a regular EI for his part in 2016 and both my mat EI and his regular EI in 2017. I just got my SA this afternoon saying that I am eligible to sponsor my mom. Without my husband's regular EI, I would be short by $300 or maybe more. So I hope my situation answers some questions out there.
Regular EI should not count. Seems you may have gotten lucky. They will review your financial status again so don't get too excited yet.
