I am in pretty much in a similar conundrum; everything is on hold - transferring offices etc, lease renewal for my apartment etc. can't do much at this point. just stay patient.

i like your optimism and i hope it comes through for all of us waiting before the year end but let's be practical: it's already November 25, which is exactly a month away from Christmas. maybe the first two weeks of December see some activity but let's face it, December is pretty much a...

that's interesting because mine shows in progress too and when i called IRCC a few weeks back they confirmed that Ottawa was still conducting background checks. at least you have passed that phase. it'll update once the officer does the final review on your profile

8 months and 3 days now. finally requested GCMS notes, just because you know it's $5 lol. not trying to be a downer but going by the trend and seeing there has been zero movement for FSW Outlanders from Ottawa recently, i'm pretty convinced there's nothing happening in 2016 for us. Chances are...

look at the number of outstanding from Ottawa FSW Outland....unreal.

i think i'll finally order my GCMS notes if i don't hear anything in the next 2 days, my 8 month mark. any idea on how long the turnaround time is for those bad boys?

hard to say; i haven't had the time to analyse this piece of information, it's been busy at work lately. i'm just happy there is activity in the Ottawa office. even if they haven't asked any outlanders about medicals extensions or landings, some of them have received PPR's. let's put it this...

i was thinking the same thing earlier as well. unfortunately, there is no way of knowing that. your guess is as good as mine at this point, which is: i don't know. there has to be some sort of a system in place by which they keep track but as to how diligently they do it...well, we're all in...

the way i look at it is it can go one of two ways at this point: 1. IRCC reaches out to you asking if you can land before a certain date when your medicals are expiring. 2. IRCC extends our medicals validity date and/or requests you to retake the medicals. the first i'm assuming will only...

what's your visa office and application category?

a few applications from Jan and Feb AOR FSWO received PPR's

even if you miss a call CIC will reach out to you via the email on your online profile.

i haven't had any change or activity on my application profile since August 18 - that's when my background changed to in progress. no change to medicals as well, which have been passed since a week after i received my AOR. maybe something in the later half of this month hopefully? March 29 AOR...

there is some movement in processing the applications at the Ottawa office it seems which is really heartening to see. 2 people from the Ottawa office have received their PPR's this week, a few have also received queries regarding whether they can land before Feb when there medical expires...

A few people in the March AOR thread have also received the same call so that's a good sign for you. Shouldn't be long till you get the PPR now mate! good luck - follow the March AOR group as well if you like, it's still quite active

thanks for the info. 8 weeks turnaround time?! for a mere inquiry? that's insane - you get your GCMS before that from what i have seen on this forum. does it effect your file if you do raise a CSIS inquiry for the status on your background check?

yeah, good point on when to start counting the 6 month period since technically it begins from when IRCC considers your application complete. For me, that's the AOR date since I had literally everything ready upfront, including the FBI PCC. i knew they would take 3-4 months to respond so i...

yeah i follow that group. that's where i got that histogram details and image from. can you share the fax number for CSIS? what did you say in the fax?

congrats mate! that makes it 2 people that received PPR from the March group this week.

keep us posted!
