June 11th, to the High Commission here in London.

Received e-mail stating I have a new message in GCKEY - COPR has been issued and is in the post.

From the January '19 pool some people got biometrics almost straight away and then heard nothing for ages before eventually getting PPR. Some of us (like me) didn't get biometrics request for ages, but then got PPR a week after it was completed. It might suggest that when you do get biometrics...

I sent my stuff off to Canada House on the 10th, nothing back as yet.

I'm looking at the requirements on the PPR. It's a bit confusing. Under "For citizens not using MyCIC and of a country that is exempt from obtaining a visa to Canada" it says send photos and documents to Canada House, and include a self-addressed envelope. Under "For citizens using MyCIC AND...

I didn’t notice it, but just checked and it says on line 2 in ECAS that they started processing on June 4. The link on ECAS when you first log in had always said “in process”. Click the link and it takes you to the line by line information.

I got an e-mail yesterday, but only just saw it this morning: Passport Request. Checked in on GCKey. Nothing there to show a decision made or passport request - just says they are still reviewing Eligibility, Background Checks as before. Logged into ECAS - it now says Decision Made rather...

Did you have far to travel? I’ve seen a few people commenting on travelling long distances at great expense only to be in the office for 15 minutes. When I looked up where I had to go I discovered it was in a building directly next to where I used to work. Literally a stone’s throw.

My guess: Nothing. 18 weeks is about 4 months and a few days. I presume they just change to counting weeks when there are fewer left. The rest is just a rounding error when using integer months vs integer weeks.

Upfront in January.

My experience is that they send you an e-mail to tell you that you have a message in your account.

I got my biometric request letter today.

I’m hoping for you. I’m also selfishly hoping the UK counts as the 51st state in this regard.

That augurs well. Inching ever closer.

Pure speculation on my part, but I would suspect that as Indian applicants appear to be the most common (if the spreadsheet is representative it’s about 40% of applicants) there is a specific team to deal with those cases, even within Mississauga. Cases are already divided up on various other...

Yes. Although it's not that others get it more quickly, that's luck, circumstance, and other things. It's the not knowing why that is difficult. I don't understand why most people have been requested biometrics at the same time as transfer and medical, but I haven't yet, two months on after...

I thought the original application forms requested that information as supporting documentation, along with specificied size photos, police checks, etc. At any rate I sent photocopies of my picture page, any page with a border stamp, and requisite photos. Does this mean I've now pre-supplied...

Are you concerned they will lie in order to have your application rejected/delayed, or that they will disclose something true that you didn't intend to disclose as part of your application?

Having read this, I'm now doubting myself - did I only digitally sign it, or did I also manually sign it. (I have copies of all my completed forms, but prior to printing and signing). I checked the signature checklist at the end of 5533, so I probably did. However, on the slim chance I didn't -...

Me three.
