I did. My Eligibility was in review required coma for 1 year because all my work experience was in Quebec. I provided an Ontario address, utility bills and my application to Professional Engineers Ontario for Engineer-in-training (EIT) status as proof of intent to settle outside Quebec. My...

Same boat, my AOR is Nov 2022

My AOR is Nov 10 2022. My Eligibility was in review for 1 whole year and only got completed on Nov 10, 2023. Even though my tracker shows everything green, there is no Final Decision date on my CIC portal, no portal email, no COPR. My PGWP is expiring Feb 2024 and there is no movement on my BOWP...

AOR: Nov 10, 2022 Tracker: all completed Nov 09 2023, after 1 whole year of processing Waiting for portal 1 email I see that almost all of comments here are regarding Montreal and Etobicoke PVOs. Does anyone know what's the timeline like for Kitchener?

Got a ghost update on CIC portal and Tracker has been updated to Eligibility completed today, but no COPR number or anything else. Fingers crossed until I see an ECOPR number generated on my tracker. Today marks exactly 1 year of AOR date.

I showed two Canadian employers and 1 employer in Bangladesh. According to the GCMS notes, they just did a Google search of the website and was satisfied with the employment reference letter that I provided. My PVO is Kitchener. For Canadian employers, I don't think IRCC bothers to call...

Is your Eligibility Review Required in your GCMS notes? Did you get any email recently from your visa office stating that your application is in queue? My eligibility is Review Required, I recently got an email from my PVO Kitchener saying that my application is in queue for officer review...

I emailed my MP in the morning and, by coincidence or not, received an email from the case officer in the evening that my file remains in queue to be reviewed by an officer. The email even has the IRCC unique Id number of the officer. Has anyone received any emails like this from a case...

My AOR is Nov 10, my eligibility has been stuck in Review Required since March 2023 because the case analyst thinks work experience gained in Quebec does not count as Canadian work experience for CRS points, approaching 1 year of processing limbo now. I submitted my response through webform; I...

It means that your submitted document has been added to your file and the analyst will review them in due time.

As far as I know, Security check starts only after your Eligibility and Background checks are complete. In other words, Security check is the final stage before your application is approved. If you see a blank field in your GCMS notes, that means the Security check has not started. You can not...

Still no movement on my application. Stuck in Eligibility Review Required hell because the case analyst thinks Quebec work experience does not count as Canadian Work Experience for CEC eligibility. I submitted a webform with explanation two weeks ago. I called IRCC today, the agent did not have...

Why were you required to submit new employment experience letter? Did your GCMS notes reflect any concern with provided employment docs?

According to my GCMS notes, my Eligibility is Review Required because my work experience in Quebec was not counted as Canadian work experience and thus, I did not meet the minimum eligibility requirements for CEC. I submitted a webform last week explaining with references to immigration act that...

Yes you can apply from your GC key account. When you fill out the questionnaire for the BOWP application, it will ask you if you want to add your spouse to your application. When you submit the application, you will see your spouse's application in your GC Key Portal. If your PGWP expires...

My PVO is Kitchener and SVO Vancouver. Reading about all the other applicants in the same boat, it seems like Kitchener is an extremely slow office. many applicants in this office are seeing processing times upwards of 6 months.

You must apply for BOWP before your work permit expires, it does not matter if it's 1 day before or 30 days before. Until last year, it was not allowed to apply for BOWP until you had 3 months left in your work permit, but now you can apply anytime as long as your work permit is valid. If your...

I don't understand why the officer will reduce your points for 3 years of foreign work experience. As a CEC applicant, I got points for 1 year 3 months of foreign work experience. If 1 year of foreign work experience is seen as an asset that gets you CRS points, why would 3 years detract from...
