Congrats to all who have received good news over the last few weeks - this is much more work in a small space of time than I've ever seen come out of Vienna VO. Still nothing from me. My application has been with Vienna since September 2017, I'd really love to know just where it is and why...

Today marks exactly 12 months since we submitted our application, and no further news :( looks like we'll be in the unlucky 20%. It's also 5 months since Vienna took receipt of our application... Our GCKey info did change today though, strangely. In the 'Review of additional documents'...

Hi guys, congrats to those getting their DM and PPR recently! I had a couple of quick questions for those of you at these stages. First of all, when you receive your PPR do you have an option to send it to either Vienna, or Ottawa? Secondly, I believe I've seen before that those who don't...

I never ordered my GCMS - I've always been of the mindset that it'll be completed within the coming month, so thought it wasn't worth it, but how wrong I've been! I have had my local MP represent me to CIC though, there's an enquiry hotline for MPs offices to call and get updates. They...

I really don’t know. The only clue I have is that Mississauga once claimed to me that they transferred me in May, but Vienna claim they only received me in September. Possibly I was lost within the system at some point, who knows. Regardless, I’ve been at this same stage for 4.5 months now...

I'm February 2017, still stuck in Vienna since September 2017 when they transferred me. All docs submitted, medical done, no interview needed, but background check not started... I'm 3 weeks from the 12 months processing mark... My only hope is that from looking at most people's timelines, once...

Any updates from anyone? Mine is still stuck in Vienna since end of September (February applicant) with no updates. Everything else done, just waiting BGC to start. I see from the spreadsheets that a March applicant received DM from Vienna on 5th January, so there's a sign of at least one...

Me. I’ve been stuck at this stage for months now - everything else approved, including police checks. Papers sat on a pile somewhere in the Vienna VO.

Well, it seems we're all experiencing very similar things. An exceptionally long wait for Vienna to process fairly straightforward details which is causing delays in our lives. That being the case, I'm going to pursue a formal complaint about the office and process via my MP here. I can't but...

Well I take a little bit of encouragement that you're in pretty much exactly the same situation as us... we sent our file back in February, it seems entirely unfeasible and bordering on incompetent to still have an application in process on December 12th...

Is there any way of making a formal complaint about the lack of progress at the Vienna office? It seems entirely incompetent of them for us all to have gotten to a certain stage but no progress being made for months now. Personally I'm just waiting for my 'eligibility' to be confirmed by a...

Hi everybody. Does anybody know the phone number to call to get up to date information about your application? I've called it before but lost the number... I submitted police checks 6 weeks ago (the final things needed, everything else approved) but have not heard any more. I was hoping we'd be...

Hi everyone, I think I fall under the category of being processed in Mississauga, mostly anyway. I received AOR, SA, medical request (and passed) and request for Schedule A and PCC from Mississauga. Also had it confirmed an interview is not required. I was then told my application has been...

Hi everybody I'm wondering if anybody would have any advice on our situation? My wife is Canadian, we applied for permanent residency outland through family class which is in final stages but still not yet approved. We are now in Canada and I have a job offer. To take up the offer though, I...

Hi everybody - does anybody recall how long it took from them submitting Schedule A/PCC to background check starting? It feels agonisingly close now as everything is submitted and approved apart from background check being started...

Thanks for letting me know, so you'd say the Vienna office is a particularly slow one? The background check is our final thing to do, we've completed medical, had relationship approved, been approved for sponsorship etc. so i was hoping it wouldn't take too long from here!

Hi everybody. I'm wondering if anyone could give me any insight about my timeline, how close we might be to background check starting/decision being made? 10 April - AOR1 18 May - medical request (completed and submitted immediately) 20 May - SA 20 Sept - request for Schedule A/police checks...

Hi everyone. Does anyone have experience of how long the Vienna office takes to begin/complete a background check? We have done everything required except background check. 20 Sept we were requested to send Schedule A and police checks, and then were told we were being transferred to Vienna. So...

Hi guys We had a few updates this last week, I was requested to send (and sent) my Schedule A. We also had police checks requested, which I'm waiting for and should hopefully submit later this week. We also had an email on Friday that our file has been moved to the Vienna office (we applied...

One more question - is it right that not everybody would have to submit a police check? I have schedule A request but have not been asked for police checks, is this normal? I'm British, applying from Prague (although currently everything is being processed through Miss. VO) Thanks Rob
