This is true!
So as i previously posted here out of desperation i emailed portal. They emailed me back with a portal email etc. and i did submit it right away. But when I follow up on them and asked them what is going on, they finally got back to me this week and told me my application is still in process... so i believe the portal email to me was a MISTAKE and now I have to wait for the final decision on my application and wait for another PORTAL email. It has been 3 months now since I submitted my ADR and my application has no ghost update since. Application is running 5 months in total since AOR, I have a feeling this will take longer than their usual processing time which is VERY frustrating, but trying my best to learn not to care anymore.
Applied for BOWP - hopefully it will get approve soon, so we can go in and out of Canada.
Do you know someone who had more than 6 months of waiting for CEC?
