Congrats on your approval. You have already received ready for visa (PPR email) or yet to receive. What I understood from your message is according to your Gcms notes you are approved but yet to receive the PPR email.

Just received my GCMS notes and my COPR is in the "print queue", I'm lucky I got them as my file was finalized and approved (it arrived with Final : Approved") !
After careful analysis of the notes, I guess it's time to rejoice :D

i dont think it matters really, email is triggered upon approval. There were a few cases like that in the past on the forum.

But so many applicants have been told that their case is approved and in queue for email confirmation. They have been waiting for weeks to get the email after approval.

Also if the email was triggered upon approval he should have received the PPR email way back as gcms notes would have been generated atleast week ago in best possible scenario or earlier. But he moved to ip2 on May 25 thats why was asking him to clear my confusion :)

This is my observation for FSWO and may be completely wrong.

Since April 10 CIC almost stopped issuing PPRs for FSWO (last Feb 10 AOR got PPR) and they were mainly issued for CEC. That continued for the rest of April and all of May. In this more than one and half month no one with AOR after Feb 10 got PPR. I cannot guess the reason for this, maybe a policy change or security check got postponed for some reason. End Feb and March AORs got medical pass after a delay of almost 30 days than normal. Average time for medical pass became 50-55 days and applications moved in bulk in a AOR time descending order.
What will happen in June ??? Some thoughts welcome :). Some outliers can be there in the tracker, but they are not good for any general prediction. I believe CIC work in batches.

I honestly think that with the massive increase in ita since the start of the year that the entire process has slowed down considerably. There goal is to get the applications finalised within 6 months we might just Have to accept that this is the most likely reality of our situations now and the people after us will take even longer.

I know from my gcms notes that they had not looked at my file since March 11 2017 coming up on 3 months. Seems a big delay from when medical school and criminality pass to when they commence eligibility and security checks.

It's very frustrating for all of us considering people before us got their applications processed quicker but I think we just have to wait out the 6 months at least for us fsw and pnp applications

Can you please share the timeline of how CIC worked on your file as per last GCMS? Just the key results.
Thanks

it means approved, email will come sooner or later, the fact of approval matters the most.

The reason for email delay may be a technical one, as one of the members had to request the e-mail on a call with CIC and they apologised and sent e-mail within a day.

Hey

pretty much their timeline was medicals passed on 8 march 2017 and a note saying completeness check (r10) was done on 11 march 2017. There was no updates since then this was the last note and the last day updated. Primary office is the central intake office and secondary office is ottowa. Notes were generated on 5 May 2017. My local visa office i am presuming is sydney australia as i live in Australia but this was not listed on my notes the third office was vegrenville in canada.

Thanks. I thought they do criminality and some eligibility with or after R10. I was wrong.

Criminality was passed at the same time, as far as eligibility my check was not started but I think some of it over laps with the r10 completeness check I.e. Check education credentials to make sure you Have all the documents submitted.

I think the eligibility checks that occur later on go into more detail I.e. Checking job against not codes etc.

I think most of this happens while we are on n.a then it only goes into progress for a few days once all been approved, but the longer it goes on the less likely hood of rejection.

That's just my interpretation everyone else please feel free to share thoughts I think this is just for fsw other streams may have other processes
