Congrats! Yes I spoke with Robyn also. It appears to be Robyn that does all of the responses and she genuinely does want to help. Also, I thanked her after telling me my application was approved so she does check the emails in real time, during office hours. She must get inundated with requests. She truly is an angel, but it is wrong that we should have to resort to an MP's office to get updates.Hi All, I have been a silent follower, but thought I would share my timeline:
AOR - 10th February 2019
MEDICAL - 28th March 2019
BIOMETRICS - 12th April 2019
VISA OFFICE - London (UK)
British citizen living in England
Heard nothing after providing biometrics. Emailed Ralph on 5th August 2019 and was advised "Eligibility and Security checks have not been initiated." Also sent a web form on this date to which I received no response.
Another web form raised around the 10th August 2019 to which I received no response.
1st GHOST UPDATE - 12th August 2019
2nd GHOST UPDATE - 13th August 2019
Sent another email to Ralph on the 13th but was advised to contact again in 3 months.
I was reading through the forum and came across a post by bairn... (sorry don’t remember full name) who had mentioned they had contacted Ralph within the 3 month period and had received another update, therefore emailed Ralph again on 23rd August 2019 apologising for emailing within the 3 month period however, wanted to understand what the 2 ghost updates related to. Received a response from Robyn (Ralph’s office) advising "all assessments (eligibility, criminality, and security) are passed as of August 13, 2019. The file is awaiting final review and decision."
Heard nothing following that so decided to try raising another web form on 30th August 2019 (yesterday), writhing half an hour I received an email advising I have a new message in my account. The message was requesting photo’s and to upload passport photocopy (not required to send passport as we do not need a visa to enter Canada). Will be posting out pictures in the next few days.
Hope this helps others and good luck to everyone who is still waiting. Let’s hope it comes through soon
Anyway, your wait is now over! My photos and documents (I had no placeholder to upload Appendix A etc) were received on Wednesday so I'm hoping to receive my CoPR in a couple of weeks. I'm making the move in January. Do you have definite plans to make the move?
