    Express Entry - e-APR Submitted in November 2016

    Thank you everyone for your replies. I think we should do a headcount to get a better idea about how many of us from November (and late October/early December) are still waiting: Name - AOR Date - Stream 1- Myself (Zagros) - 13 Nov - FSW 2- hb_rashidy - 28 Nov - PNP 3- Aali005 -...

    Thank you for answering, everyone, and I'm very sorry to see you all being in the same predicament as me. So far, there are eight of us left from November (and early December). Please, let us keep each other apprised of any developments.

    How many of us are still left? Can you please answer if you are a November applicant and you are still waiting?

    Those who Waiting EXPRESS ENTRY in Six Months and not finalized!!!!

    I feel your pain, friend. I am in my 8th month (closing in on 9), and to be frank it is nauseatingly irritating. The unpredictability and lack of clarity is maddening. For all we know, it could take another full year and we still wouldn't get a straight answer or explanation about why our...

    I know this feeling man. My application is about to reach 9 months! Some people at IRCC and CSIS are really slacking off.

    Those who Waiting EXPRESS ENTRY in Six Months and not finalized!!!!

    This is tragic! Waiting over a year while others get it in 3 months. Totally unfair. Today is my 8 month mark, not long before I catch up to you. I've hear that it's possible to write CSIS a letter to inquire about the status of your application...

    Many thanks for the information. I didn't know it's possible to ask for a status update about SS, however, this seems to be possible only for those inland as a physical letter has to be sent (not email), though I do have a friend there who could do it in my stead (with a consent letter from me)...

    Congratulations friend. I wish you all the very best. I hear Airbnb and Kijiji are the best two options for short-term housing.

    Unbelievable how some of these agents just slack off and have to be reminded of their work! How is your file coming along? Are you stuck with (security screening) as well or is it just "normal" security for you?

    I hope I'm wrong, but I think this means you are stuck with rest of us who are undergoing (security screening). Which means that you, too, are in this for the long haul.

    GCMS shows 'Security Screening' and waiting... - let's gather here!

    I guess you are right. Not much else I can do.

    Sam, you are an October 24 applicant and I'm a November 13. About 20 days difference. However, we are both in this hell. Any idea what the best-case and worst-case scenarios would be?

    Ajisam, you waited 16 months? Man, you are making me panic even more!

    GCMS shows 'Security Screening' and waiting... - let's gather here!

    Well, I just checked my GCMS notes again and it is clearly stated that security screening is done by PVO. Do you think there is anything I can do or should I just bite my time and wait it out?

    Those who Waiting EXPRESS ENTRY in Six Months and not finalized!!!!

    Exactly like me! My beef is not that I was (arbitrarily) chosen for security screening, my issue is that I received AOR on Nov 13, had eligibility passed on Nov 28, file sent to PVO on Nov 30, and there they forgot about my file for 5 full months. I sent them an email on May 16, they replied...
