Hi Guys,
It has been a stressful journey so far.

this is my timeline.

Ar: mar 15, 2018
Aor: may 05,2018
File transferred : April 29, 2019
ADR: Dec 04, 2019/ update schedule A
Medical: Nov 29th
Got an email for an interview on Jan 16th 2020.

Today was my interview (feb 05/2020). a family went before me and it took them forever- waited for 2 hours.. It was my turn and the officer was in not a good mood. She was fuming. everything was done in 5 min. The reason for delay was back in 2016 when I crossed the border, they did not stamp on my passport. That's the reason for my delayed processing.

It was really frustrating to hear the response from the officer.
She told me that you will get your PR card within 15 days.

I really wish you good luck guys! - Pray that everyone's file is processed fast.

Thanks everyone, this thread helped me a lot.

They dont usually going to tell you about wats you or your employer doing wrong but they will watch till they are certain and if they succeed (cic) they have reason to refuse my advise if there is something wrong you and your employer is the only one know wat it is and cic found out bit not sure just make it right before it's too late
Thank you for your information. I’ve been working for the same company for 7+ years. And renewed my LMIA ever year. I don’t see anything wrong from my side. Only I do regret that I should have applied for EE if I knew this process is taking me almost 2 years.
