To my knowledge, it depends on your luck. I applied in November and my application was transferred to my visa office in Paris in December, but to date, I haven't received PPR. While others have had their applications moved and within a couple of weeks, they've received their PPR. So it really is...

Exactly! Honestly, It's not a good feeling to be in this position. The worst part is that we are completely helpless. There is nothing we can do to expedite the process, and when we call/contact them, they almost always say that they are processing the applications and we should not contact them...

Wish you all the best, friend, and stay in touch.

Many thanks, friend. I wish you all the best as well. Well, my application status was the same as yours up until a couple of days ago when I received a letter from CIC requesting a filled-out (Family Information form - IMM 5645E form). My background status changed during the same day from (not...

I am FSW-O, which makes it even stranger, because most of those who remain are PNP-I. I'm so "lucky" I should be buying a lottery ticket or something. I sent an email to Paris VO (which is my primary visa office) asking how long it might take, and they were like (yeah, we are working on it, but...

Yes, you have to check manually when there is status update. At least for me it was like that because I did not receive any email when my BG changed.

My background check changed to (in progress) two days ago (187 days after AOR)!

I'm waiting as well. AOR was on November 13 (FSW-O).

Many thanks for your suggestion Ahmad. I will do that and hope they will have some answers for me. All the best to you too mate.

Thank you for your suggestion, Ahmad. If I may ask, how can I ask for a status enquiry from them? There is an email address in this page: (http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/offices/missions/paris.asp) which is (parisimmigration [at] international.gc.ca). Do you suggest I contact them via...

Never! That's what's bugging me really. My AOR was Nov 13, Medicals passed on Nov 16, and literally nothing since then. No update, no correspondence, no status change. It is as if they have completely forgotten that my application exists. Today is the official 180 day mark for me. I want to...

My primary visa office is Paris. I haven't raised CSE yet. I will do it tomorrow as it will officially reach the 180 day mark. But to be honest, I don't think it will lead to anything because at best, they will tell me that they are processing security, which is something I already know. I am...

I'm in the same camp as you. I received my GCMS notes a couple of weeks ago and exactly like you, my security and eligibility have not even started! It really is frustrating and depressing, and to make matters worse, it is completely out of our control. There is nothing we can do to expedite...

Hey Tony. I feel for you brother. I agree with you about our applications taking a long time, let's just hope not *too* long. I see people who have been waiting for over a year, and I wonder if mine will be like that too. It's not a good feeling to be honest, but I guess it is what it is. Good...

It has been 178 days for me (Nov 13 - FSW-O). I'm certain that I will be one of the unlucky few to have the processing of my application take longer than the normal 6 months. I am just waiting patiently to reach the 180 days and then get in touch with them, even though I am pretty sure it will...

Exactly my thoughts, Tony! That's why I asked for your country of residence, because I've seen quite a few people on this forum who are from the Middle East whose applications were delayed. Perhaps we, too, should brace ourselves for the same possibility.

Our cases are very similar in the sense that I am also FSW-O and my AOR was Nov 13. However, since my medicals passed (on Nov 16) I have not received any updates or correspondence from CIC whatsoever. My GCMS noted from late March say that (security) and (Eligibility) have not even started! I...

As far as I know, within 30 days.

I'm sorry to hear that Tony. But if your AOR was 30 October, would it not mean that you will pass the six month mark after 30 April? In any case, I am in the same boat as you. I am FSW-O and in two weeks' time, I will pass the six month mark and I am not optimistic that I will get any response...

Many thanks. Hope you will get PPR soon as well.
