Very Same Situation here.
I sent my application to CIO NS and they received that on May 25, 2014. However, no ROA, neither MR after 7 months!
I emailed CIO first and it seems that they forwarded my email to CPP-O and they replied me that they received my application and there is no document needed at this point and they will come back to me when the application is processed!
I Emailed them again inquiring about the long delay, but no response yet after a month.
It is definitely getting too long. Any recent news from other people here?
Cheers
