Hi friends,
I'm a new comer to this forum.I would like to know some answers regarding my process.I am NSNP demand express entry outland applicant.
1.I couldnt able to check my application status as I dont have my case ID no or other required numbers.So how can I check my status?
2.After I submitted my PR application on 2016/03/21 with PCC,upfront medicals & S4 , I didnt get any messege from CIC.Is that normal?
3.I got my AOR on 03rd December2015.Normally how long does it take to get PPR?
4.My husband worked Japan & Maldives more than one year.Is that caused to delay the process eventhough I submitted PCC?
5.Though it mentioned that it takes only six months , what percentage of majority get their PR within 6 months?Can any senior please predict my process through your experience?

I'm really tiring of waiting.

Your opinions are highly appreciated
Thank you..

Welcome to the land of "Wait and Wait". There is no good job here, wondering why are you waiting to move from Japan to here?

Our time line:

1 We received your application for a permanent resident card on April 11, 2016.
2 We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on June 6, 2016.
3 We started processing your application on June 6, 2016.
4 Your request for a permanent resident card was approved on June 30, 2016. Your Permanent resident card will be mailed to you or if quality assurance is required, made available for you to pick up at a CIC office.

For number 4 ECAS was updated between July 8th or 11th (ECAS was accessed on july 11th)

Now after reading what happened with Canada Post, we still do not know when PR cards will be sent (or if even we have to get them personally)


Citizenship and immigration applications: documentation


Until IRCC resumes using Canada Post mail services, we will contact you by phone or email if we need additional documents to process your application; and a delay would cause problems.
If we contact you for these documents, follow the instructions we provide. You may need to send the documents by email, by alternate courier or through our Web form. We will accept electronic copies of correspondence or documents where legally possible. We reserve the right to request original documentation at any point.


Permanent residence (PR) cards
PR cards will be mailed when IRCC resumes using Canada Post mail services. Urgent PR cards may be sent by an alternate courier to you or to a local IRCC office for you to pick up.

Now we wait..... :(


UPDATE

IRCC has resumed using Canada Post mail services
Effective July 11, 2016, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has resumed normal processing procedures for applications using Canada Post mail services. We have resumed sending documents by mail. All documents held during the special measures will now be sent.
We are monitoring the Canada Post situation and will provide new instructions as needed.

You will receive AOR email in couple of days hopefully. Actually, IRCC are taking almost 2 months. Since they received your application on May 12, this means they will email you shortly. After that, if the file is simple and there are no additional requests by IRCC, it will take an additional month until it is completed.

Kindest Regards,

My time line is :

Sent application on May. 10
Received by IRCC on May.12

E-cas was updated to ' in process' saying that processing started on July 12
Also it says " we sent you a correspondence acknowledge receipt of your application on July.12"

But as of today, July 13, I have not received any email like AOR from IRCC.

Is there a time gap between E-cas and actual receipt of email ?
I am concerned that IRCC may have sent to wrong email,not in correct email in application.

How long does it take from 'in-process' to 'decision made' these days roughly?

Hi RUCND,

Congratulation !
It was relatively quick compared with other applications.

Did you receive email from IRCC about your timeline #1,2,3?

My ECAS was updated to ' in processing' but I have not email from IRCC even though ECAS says that they sent
a correspondence to me.

Thanks in advance

Hi jungshan,

Usually IRCC send email only for AOR date. Two days later, your status appears on eCAS as in process. If you did nit receive email, this means you did not mention your email in the application or you wrote it wrong on your application. In all cases, you have to email them and inform them of your situation and provide them with your correct email

Regards,

Hi elie72,

Thanks for your advice. I wrote my correct email address as a mean of correspondence in aplpplidation form.

Per your advice, I explained the situation and informed my email address via IRCC webform, requesting to
enter my email address in their system.

Not sure if they will answer my request by email. If I do not receive email from IRCC,
Should I call to IRCC to request for it as notification of the status of processing and future request for
Additional documents by email to me is very important to me?
