Any updates?

Any updates lately? Seems like things are moving slow now... Syrian refugees?

Not always. Only if there are some gaps in your background history or if CIC has any doubts about it.

Please share your timeline as well.

That update on 19th October could've possibly been about the change from "Background Check: Not needed at this time" to "Background Check: Not started".

There are many groups based on AOR months. However, as we know, processing times vary significantly for different categories and for different visa offices. Hence for the convenience of all the FSW Outland applicants from India, I've floated this topic. Let's share our timelines here and try...

Same here! Email said 'your application has been updated.' But no updates in myCIC.

You need a score of around 450 to receive an ITA in near future. Try retaking IELTS and scoring atleast CLB 9 (8L/7R/7W/7S).

The physical report that you will receive in mail/courier is identical to the one available online in your WES account. You don't need it any stage.

Your age will be calculated on the day you receive an ITA.

Just submit the Canadian Masters Degree without evaluation.

Masters is not a "post secondary certificate". Its a "postgraduate degree" and is ranked higher than "two or more..." Anything ranked higher than "two or more..." + CLB 7 will fetch you 25 points. Calculate your score without including your bachelors here...

You will not lose any points. Masters + CLB 7 will get you 25 points. Check in the CIC CRS calculator to clear your doubts.

How do you know that you got the required points because of two degrees? Anyways, you can safely remove your non-Canadian degree from your profile. Your Master's will fetch you the points.

You don't need an ECA for a Canadian degree. A Master's degree is rated higher than "Two or more.." Your Canadian Master's will fetch you the required points.
