PR applicants from Iran
- Thread starter Mr_nobody
- Start date
I did order the note 63 days ago and I have not received it yet.
This is pretty normal now days, mine took over two months, i found ordering CBSA note is faster and it takes about month.
I am DEC 18 AOR and in SS for over 5 months now and no news rather than I have expired medical now!
it seems CIC not sending ghost update on major changes like before, i did not receive a ghost update when my medical get expired when it happens in my profile, nor got ghost update for my medical that got extended today!
It seems you are very close to receive your ppr. My guess is that you will receive it by the end of next week. SS takes 4-5 months these days for most of applicants.
Thanks everybody for your responses.
@ms-nobody, thanks for your reply. My AOR is 27 Dec and I don't know when they started my SS since haven't received the notes yet. I see in your signature that you received the ADR requests in March and the SS started in April. With such timeline, my SS probably has started in Sep and there is still 4-5 months to go
. Maybe I should order the CBSA notes as well.

to be honest, I still haven't figured out how this remed and extension works. So, from what I have seen on these threads, there are two situations for the medical. 1- For some people, it expires exactly on the expiry date of the medical and then gets extended automatically till later date. For these cases, extension does not show anything special and it is just a routine process (I am not sure if people get ghost updates for these automatic extensions). 2- For some people, they get remed or extension as part of their fianl review. For these people, remed or extension is a sign that their case is completed (e.g SS is done) and they are under the final review before the ppr.
Now, which one do you think applies to you?
I just noticed your timeline, you have a big selection of ADR, maybe it could be a world recordThanks everybody for your responses.

Have you received a ghost update after your third ADR? If so, that is the date that your SS started ( I think it is the same date as the time your status changed to NA)
@Mr_nobody i got my PPR today
total 282 days and as your stalker I recall you got yours in 280 rangemy med expired on 18 SEP 19, and stayed in that status and without a ghost update changed to passed on 7 October and PPR 9 Oct.
now I have to do the photo routine and question to you is did you use Canada post to submit your passport or use UPS or similar, i know they only send it back by Canada post.
also could you do forum a favour and put some details for steps after PPR when you have time with expected time, (your fault as your detailed signature is no longer there

)))Post PPR/landing interview – What to do?
After you receive PPR, everything is almost done, however, notice that you are not considered as a PR until you do the landing. Sending photos, verifying them, landing, etc. are part of the process of PR. After you do the landing, you will finally be considered as PR. Steps after PPR: (If you received landing interview, you are lucky, you can jump to Step 3
1- You need to take 2 photo ids (if you are in North America, the cheapest place is Costco), write your name behind it and ask them to seal the photos and put the date behind it. There is also a form in the email for your address. Fill it, and send it alongside the passport and photos. If you are in Canada, use Canada post, and choose the option that allows you to track the parcel.
2- After CIC received your passport, it takes a couple of weeks for them to stamp your visa on the passport and send your COPR to you. In that time, you will see another update and your status will change to “Approved”. Please note that it takes a couple of days for them to send the documents back to you. So, don’t be worried if you saw your return tracker is not activated.
3- After receiving COPR, you need to do landing. If you are an outland, you will do the landing in the first time that you enter the Canada. There is an immigration custom in all international airports. Please note that you need to the landing in the first airport that you enter Canada (Toronto, Calgary, and Montreal). If you have connecting flights, you need to do the landing before your connecting flight. If you are an inland, you can do either inland landing or you can go to a border. If you want to do the inland landing, you need to raise a CSE and request for an appointment for inland landing. For those who choose to go the border, this link has a detailed experience from a person who did that

Yup! Hope it doesn't take years for them to analyze these ADRs.I just noticed your timeline, you have a big selection of ADR, maybe it could be a world record
Have you received a ghost update after your third ADR? If so, that is the date that your SS started ( I think it is the same date as the time your status changed to NA)
Well, I didn't notice any ghost update (status change to updated) but the status of ADR was changed to NA within one day or two after the last submission. If that's the starting point, I probably won't hear from them till Feb/March 2020.
