AOR JAN 2016 - let's get together

[goldon]

Got Notice from CIC today.
Asked for additional documents (CELPIP results).
I wonder why they don't include these files in the checklist at the very beginning.
Anyway, I have submitted right away.

I thought the same thing when they asked me. I know some people upload them along with their educational stuff on the document checklist.

I should have asked first. I trust the CIC checklist too much and didn't even realized that I didn't provide the CELPIP result.
However, I do think they can track the result automatically as we have provide the exam's registration number.

I think we need a name for us (who submitted e-APR in January)

I notice that the November, December AOR people call themselves Novemberians, and Decemberians.

What is the term for us? Januarians?

Does this mean that people who have paid RPRF are getting processed faster? I just skimmed through the posts, so not sure if I inferred it correctly.

My assumption is that they have split their departments country wise. People from countries which have less number of applications are obviously processed faster than countries like India, etc. which have hell lot of applications . I'll try building some data out of this assumption and see how far its correct.

Good idea but it doesn't talk about the year

Let's think of something that is unique

I think it is to do payment of RPRF fees upfront. By the way, CIC itself says that upfront payment of RPRF may result in faster processing. So perhaps this is the logical conclusion to infer fast processing for applicants with full upfront payment. At least, I can deduce this based on replies for people where BG status quickly changed from 'in process' to 'not needed'.

Paid Upfront.

Please let me know if anyone knows whether CIC gives second extension for PCC (considering CIC gives first extension of 60 days for PCC which is not enough for US PCC since now the US PCC processing time is around 4 months).

Hey dude....I was in same position where CIC gave me 60 days extension though I had to struggle a lot to get it in PCC from a gulf country quickly. But expensive route !

If I was you, I would have done it as follows: Start creating/maintaining full documentation to prove CIC (perhaps update in the form of Case Specific Enquiry before hand - and try speaking to agents - then when deadline approaches, about 3-4 days before deadline upload all correspondences and Case Specific Enquiry reference number/standard reply) that you are still working through the process and it will take more time. Therefore, you would need more time to provide PCC. You can attach letters of correspondences written to authorities requesting them to provide PCC as soon as possible. I think this kind of strong documentation will justify need for more time. As you can mention that this is something not in your hand despite you are trying your level best. You can also talk on lines that it is an administrative process and run by rules and regulations by respective states, which you can not influence. Therefore, you need more time. It will also be helpful if you can get some kind of standard reply or specific reply from relevant Police body saying that this is the current status of application and police body will take another 1 or 2 months.

I think it is all about documentation. Honestly, it would be unfair to reject someone's application just because that person can not provide a document, for which he/she cant manage the process.

Good luck

I don't think paying RPRF has too much influence on the processing speed, coz there was a guy recently who got aor in dec, then was asked for the payment and in about 15 days after he got ppr. So

you could be right. But I'm just referring to the statement by CIC. I am sure those who have submitted eAPR must have come across this comment. Not hard and fast rules, but it is just to feel relaxed.

Maybe that's just one guy. We are a bunch on the other side

Good luck

Thank you! I have standard reply from FBI which states processing time is 13-15 weeks. I am planning to submit fbi pcc from a private agency in US which takes 2-3 days (it's expensive and not accepted by cic, but this is the max I can do).
