It was not. And when we called CIC, they confirmed that all they could see was the schedule A received in May and NOTHING after that date. Then on January 8th, it showed background check in progress and PPR came a week or so later. So yes, don’t worry! I know how you feel. I felt the same, but...

Don’t worry. We only saw movement on our application on January 8th this year on the CGKey, basically 23 days before the 12 month mark (a little over 3 weeks). CIC didn’t have any updates for us either each time we called because we couldn’t link our application. We are now waiting for the COPR...

We were honest with the border, and told them the truth that we were getting married that weekend. They asked what our plans were, and we told them. They noted everything, and the officer gave my husband a visitor record for several months and advised to apply for PR as soon as possible along...

It took us almost a year to be able to link our application, and we were able to do so by following these steps. *Use Application Number and UCI *Enter passport info only, not city and country of birth *Enter details for where you will be going within Canada and all details in this section...

We just completed this process. That is correct. And it is not every page of the USA passport. It’s the one with the picture page details, and if applicable, pages that amendments have been made to the picture page. In our case, it was just a photocopy of one page of my husband’s passport, the...

How long does it take to get COPR from Ottawa? They received our PPR documents yesterday and my hubby is visiting me in Canada so COPR will be mailed within Canada. It will be 12 months next Tuesday since we’ve applied for PR. I’m wondering if Ottawa would mail it within the week. Or is that...

So thrilled! It looked like there was nothing being done until January 8th, and then movement!

Guess who go their DM and PPR! We are thrilled! Sending off everything they requested today so there’s no delays. Hopefully CIC will meet the January 30th deadline! Sooooooo happy!

It definitely would! I hope they’ll expediate it, once they receive the results of the prints, so that it happens before the one year mark!

January 30th applicant, so one year is coming up soon! We had to submit Canadian prints because my husband has been visiting for more than 6 months, so I’m hoping once CIC receives them, they’ll make a decision. They were mailed from Ottawa to Mississauga last week. I’m hoping CIC will be able...

Thank you all!

Could someone explain to me what happens after DM? My husband is a USA citizen, so a visa exempt country. We applied Outland although he’s visiting me in Canada. I have seen applicants having to send in their passport before they can land. Is that required for everyone? Just trying to get a...

Thank you so much for sharing this! My husband just got a message to check his gckey (where you link the application), and now it shows medical results as passed although they requested that we complete a new one this morning. And it shows that the BGC has started! I’m just jubilant right now...

We were told when we called CIC today that the background check had not been started. And on the gckey (cause we were finally able to link our application today), nothing looks done aside for the sponsorship approval. I wondering if it’s possible that they’ve started the background check, but...

Fingers crossed! I wonder how long it takes to complete the background checks. I understand that is the lengthiest portion of the process.

We finally have some movement! January 30th, 2017 Application. We received a request for a medical exam today because the one we had submitted expired. There doesn’t appear anything else completed. The eligibitly for my husband isn’t done yet, nor is the background check started. The CIC agent...

We finally linked our application after almost one year of trying to do so! We tried everything and nothing worked until today. For those having the same issues, try this: *Use Application Number and UCI *Enter passport info only, not city and country of birth *Enter details for where you will...

Yes, we were told the same about the 12 month timeline just being an average by one agent. We called again yesterday, and still nothing. We are filling out consent forms for our MP to send on January 31st since it will be overdue then. I’m still hopeful that we are gonna get a letter in the mail...

Congrats! I wouldn’t be so worried if it was as quick as yours, but with less than a month left now, it’s concerning. I’m hopeful that CIC will meet their deadline, but as time passes, I’m trying to be realistic. So you had absolutely NO UPDATES, and you received it? Did CIC have anything on...

I think I got lucky because they’ve never offered to send a message before. When I had called two weeks previously, and shared my concerns about no entries on their system, CIC said they couldn’t send a message when I asked because it wasn’t over 12 months. This time around, the CIC agent said...
