***** AUGUST 2020 CEC APPLICANTS TIMELINE *****

[Dnrvl]

Canada is on track to meet its goal of 401,000 new permanent residents this year after adding record numbers in June and July, Immigration Minister Marco Mendicino said on Friday.

Just to put it here. I was right, that IRCC officers are too busy with 2021 applicants and have no time for 2020. Really bad luck for us. I believe in karma and dont understand why it happened to me...

They counted 79-80.000 new approved COPR in JUNE and JULY 2021 ONLY!!!! THATS HELL A LOT OF WORK. Officers are really working hard. Working on 2021 cases.

Thats the real reason why our applications are forgotten. Not f***ing covid they use as excuse.

Not saying theyre not focusing on 2021 rather than 2020s, but those numbers means total new prs that landed -- doesnt matter their AOR. So an AOR from jan2020 and an AOR from may2021 that both got ecopr in June are counted in that number

Unfortunately, flights from India are banned at the moment, so I dont think your application will be finilised at least until this decision is lifted as your dependent is there.

Hi all,

Finally back in Vancouver after a 4 month trip to India. Went in April for a work related trip, but then caught with Covid and was down for awhile and had to stay back. Finally made it back here yesterday via Mexico.

IRCC had sent me a letter for some explanation on May 1st and I had submitted the letter by 5th May. There were 3 or 4 ghost updates in the immediate week and then everything went quiet. I thought it might be because I was out of Canada and they were waiting for me to be inland before they approve it.

So I called IRCC today and they confirmed all assessments are passed (Some good news at least!) and are just waiting for the final decision. My file is with Vancouver office. Now that I am back, hopefully it will move or Not

Just wanted to update.

Similar situation, and I called IRCC to confirm they know I am here in Canada, but my file did not move since march when everything was passed.

FYI:

I recently got a new set of GCMS notes (nothing had changed of course), but these were in the new format, which is a much slimmed down version of the old style notes. So instead of the usual 100+ pages, I received 12 pages of notes.

More on the new format here and here.

Now i go back to having zero expectations of IRCC regarding my application. Stay safe and keep well everybody.

I just got my GCMS notes with the new format as well. It's truly a lot easier to understand.
My security was completed on the same day that the officer approved my PR.
This is my updated timeline:

AOR: Aug 25, 2020
Medical: June 24, 2020 (upfront)
ADR: April 9, 2021 (Military Records / Exemption)
ADR submission: April 13, 2021
Exemption from additional medical exam (email): July 15, 2021
Exemption from additional medical exam (reassessment granted): July 21, 2021

when was your eligibility completed?

 

[sponsort]

when was your eligibility completed?

It got a pass on April 1, 2021.
Officer notes say it did not need to be revised and went with the first decision (passed) on the day he/she approved my PR.

Thank you for sharing . This is very helpful.

My medicals expired on 12th August and got a gu update on 12th itself.

But I have not heard anything from them.
It is just random for them to process our applications.
