The first letter is AIP... but the second one is not a good sign, transfer to Ottawa for further assessment, it means CIC have doubt about your application. And two letters are contradicted.
Hi @commonlaw2018, please share a little more regarding when an application is transferred to Ottawa for further assessment, how this may not be a good sign. I am not in this situation, but would like to know a little more about this. It is helpful to know a little more. I hope that it is not the case for GMMG member.
Thank you.

August 01, 2018 (today)- received passport request - Alhamdhullilah

Question: My husband is in Pakistan but at the time of submitting the application i became the representative therefore i had put my Canadian address as mailing address on the application. Now he will be sending his passport to Islamabad office as instructed. I am not sure if the mailing address would be an issue to send his passport back to his address in Pakistan. Please let me know if this should be something i need to worry about. Thank you in advance.

Thank you.
When the application is transferred to local office for FURTHER ASSESSMENT, that means CIC have doubt with the application, such as the relationship is considered to be not genuine or misrepresentation or criminality issue......an interview for further assessment may be arranged. But GMMG received AIP as well. So it is weird. maybe it is just a glitch on the account. Suggest to order note or call CIC directly.

Hello,via
Please help me with answers to the following:

1) Has anyone with an OWP (and have been working or found a job) sent an update via IRCC webform or called CIC to let them know? Does providing CIC with this info help our application, or do applicants just keep this to themselves, or until they are asked for additional information? I know that if the sponsor changes jobs, etc, we have to update them, but was wondering if this applies to principal applicant as well.

2) I noticed that some members have posted that their Background Check status has changed early on in their application process (CIC online account). My Background Check status has been Not Applicable up until now, with no changes. Is this pretty standard for most of you?

Thank you in advance.

March 6th applicant
OWP received: June 22nd
