Today IRCC called my current employer to ask a few questions (date of employment, what do I do, ...etc).

This is a bit surprising to me because I did not claim any experience points for my current employment. I just provided a very concise "Letter of employment" from the company saying that I am currently employed, the job title, the salary and the company contact information. I thought that this is what the Letter of employment is for. My current employment was not on my Employment History and I did not claim any experience points for it.

I do not know if they called my previous employers which are on my employment history.

Hi Bassem,

wow... I'm surprised! Perhaps this is part of your background check? Do you know which office they called from, and if the caller was English or Arabic-speaking?

Cheers,
MF

My Background check status changed from "In Progress" to "Not needed at this time"

My application status still says Background check: Not started. But you never know. Maybe it was some kind of background check.

The area code they called from is (613) which I think means Ottawa visa office.

The officer was English speaking. Actually my employer is a US company and I work for them remotely from my home country. I started working for them only a few days before I submitted my application. Maybe they considered these facts as flags and they wanted to call to confirm.

True.. They usually double check anything that seems "off" to them - including working for a company in a different georgraphic location, and starting said employment a few days before AOR

That being said, I don't think you have anything to worry about... The opposite.. I think it's a good sign that progress is being made on your file!

For me, I noticed I had forgotten to disclose an old trip to Dubai from 2008 on my old passport, so I raised a CSE informing them of it, just to be on the safe side!

Salam,
MF

Hi Mate, We got a responsive JULY AOR Whatsapp group. PM me if you want to join.

Thanks

As my meds did not show passed, I raised a CSE. I also attached my IELTS reports along with that CSE. Within few days, meds changed to 'Passed' ;D and they also responded back saying they are in receipt of my documents. In the same note they also mentioned that my file is located at a visa office outside Canada. I think it should be in NDVO. I will be requesting for the GCMS notes soon. My timelines:
PEI Nomination: July 12, 2016
ITA: July 13, 2016
Medicals done: July 19, 2017
eAPR/AoR: July 27, 2016
Medicals passed: Aug 31, 2016
RPRF: Upfront
BG: Aug 31=Not started, Sep 01=Not needed

Received a Schedule A request on the 6th September.

It said there should be no gaps and if I answered yes to any of the mandatory questions that I had to explain.

I sent back the schedule A with an addendum outlining all my activities with no breaks in the date (instead of 2016-01 to 2016-02 and the next activity being 2016-03, I put 2016-01 - 2016-03 and then started the next activity from 2016-03)

Apparently they are a bit picky about that so I clarified all that.

Also, I was issued an allowed to leave Canada notice because of a mix up at the border that meant I worked without status for a few months without knowing it (my immigration consultant told me I had implied status and the officer disagreed and I was given 2 weeks to return home which I did.) and they issued this to me at the port of entry. So I explained that I applied for an open work permit at the POE and had to leave Canada. If anyone can clarify my position here that would be great!

I'm hoping this won't affect my application!

I sent back in the Schedule A on the 10th so I'm currently terrified at the moment! :-[

Note : I have well over a year's worth of Canadian experience without that work with no status so that should be covered.

Hii there. I too received my AOR in July. All I can see here is that you guys are undergoing medical too. But I was not given any notification for that instead I was asked to resend a new draft and I got my old expired draft posted on my home address. Could someone guide me about this all please

Looks like you are an OINP applicant. This thread is for applicants who have submitted their eAPR. In which month did you send your OINP Application package? Based on the months that you sent your application package, you can refer to the relevant threads like OINP application sent in Dec, Jan, Feb etc. All the best!

 

[sammy1976]

...hopefully.

Right now, looking at Feb, March AOR groups, it is still taking the majority of applicants 6 months from date of AOR, so no new trends have emerged... However, Feb and Mar invites were still around 3000/month. The numbers only came down in late April or May, I believe.. So we should find out in a few weeks if processing times speed up or not.

Good luck to all. I haven't seen any updates on my application after I passed medicals (few days after AOR) and then submitted my FBI PCC (a month after AOR) However, I got my GCMS notes which showed that my application is now in CPC Ottawa, and primary eligibility has been met (not passed) in CIO.

I also noticed there was a blanked out note at the end, made by someone in CPC Ottawa and it was blanked out due to s.16(1)(c) - I hope thats not bad news!
