See the database in my signature for the latest updates on all applicants with AORs in April

Much as that file helps in keeping a track on everyone else's movement, I'm fairly sure YamPower was keen on knowing why is CIC holding back PPRs for the 19th June bunch!

LOL Haha, the great CIC mystery

 

[ullu_ka_pattha]

Although CIC is more or less done with our applications they are holding back on our PPR so that there is no prcedence for PPRs coming way too soon than the promised 6 month time frame. They are calibrating expectations of applicants. Mind games you see!

I didn't know this, wow.

Hey bro,
My timeline is exactly same as yours. guess we are under the same VO

Any updates?

Not for me. I did find out from my company's HR that another worker who applied on April 9th got their PPR over the weekend. So, at least they are moving forward.
I also found out the status of a work permit they were applying for me based on my positive LMIA. A little background, my company had gotten me a WP based on NAFTA back in November before the CIC released the EE requirements. Once the EE requirements came out they applied for a LMIA for me an got a positive response. They then decided to apply for a new WP based on the LMIA so I didn't need to worry about it expiring before I got PPR.
Yesterday they called up the CIC because it's now over the normal amount of time for the WP to process and they haven't gotten an update. Well, the CIC told them it was refused on the grounds that they didn't upload my job contract. My company then had the CIC agent bring up the document list they sent HR and there was nothing about the contract listed for upload! The CIC agent acknowledge that, admitted they made a mistake and then reopened my file. They asked HR to just upload the doc and fill out a form which they did immediately. Hopefully I'll have answer in a few days as the LMIA expires at the end of the month.
Luckily this won't affect my PPR application as I applied using my NAFTA WP and the permanent job offer is tied to the LMIA which is positive, but it could have really messed things up. At least the bugs in the whole CIC system are consistent and they are acknowledging them. I'm also very lucky that I have a company that's willing to take the time to get this stuff sorted out for me!

You are very, very fortunate indeed. Hopefully this ordeal will be over soon.

Are you planning to stay with the company after you get PR?

Are you planning to stay with the company after you get PR?

Yeah, I know. My manager was really annoyed with the CIC. I was going to just flagpole when I got the LMIA, but they didn't want me to because some times the border agents get prickly if you do that so close to getting a previous WP. So, they thought just doing it online, which is how you are supposed to do it unless there's a pressing time issue, would be the easiest and safest way to get it done. I know a few people who really got grilled at the border with the agents demanding to know why they had to flagpole and the companies didn't apply through the mail. Didn't even know about that until it happened to them!
I'm staying with the company. They treatment me very well, so unless something changes, I plan on sticking with them for a while.
