Be patient, it has been over 7 months since my AOR, and I am still waiting.
Obviously, the processing is slowing down.

Unfortunately my application was rejected today (see the rejections thread for all the gory details if curious).

I'm sad of course, but life goes on. I still have much to be grateful for; I'm still in Canada (over 2 years now), still getting married to a Canadian, still working for a great company that will happily pay for a new LMIA for me. So I will regroup and tomorrow morning begin the process of reapplying.

Please feel free to remove me from the spreadsheet. Congrats to all who already have PR and best of luck to everyone still waiting!

Sorry to hear about this bro. I had the same issue before, as i did not submit the arabic documents. I think you could submit a an appeal through a CSE. Don't lose hope

Yes that happens. It might take time and, to be honest, I don't understand the reasons for that. My 6 months passed on April 21st. Background / security checks from Canada, Russia and anywhere else were completed... But for some reasons the final review has already been pending for many weeks . I have 2 conspiracy theories for that.

1. Processing Time Starts After R10.
Some forum members mentioned that rule before.

This might be applied for those who are inlands (Ottawa VO) having security check cleared. Or to make it simpler, those are waiting for the final review. After analyzing some February and March applications it is possible to see that there is quite sufficient amount of inland members who received PPR within 7-8 months. It is exactly 6 months after R10 might be set "OK". In my case, R10 was set to "OK" in the beginning of June.

The have redistribution of applications
As there were months when the number of ITA was very low. CIC might decided to redistribute some applications in order to make an equal workload.

Those are just my assumptions.

Let's hope that everything will be exactly as we want it to be!

Thank you :)

Hey again,

As _modernnomad_ already mentioned, the root cause of my rejection was that the LMIA used in my EE profile was both expired, and not linked to my current (open) work permit. I'm not allowed to post links yet, but there is a page on the CIC website (Express Entry: Creating an Express Entry profile and requirements for entering the pool) which states "Express Entry candidates who are employed in Canada on a temporary resident work permit that was issued based on a positive LMIA do not need to acquire a new LMIA to support their expression of interest, even if the assessment expiry date posted on their LMIA has passed, should they meet the requirements below.". I obviously didn't read it carefully enough at the time, because if I had I would have seen that one of the requirements is that the candidate (me) be on a work permit tied to the same employer as the LMIA. Sadly mine is not. I am on an open (LMIA-exempt) work permit issued through the IEC (International Experience Canada) program.

The full story of that is that back when my first work permit (which was also issued under IEC) was due to expire, I reapplied for a second, whilst my company simultaneously requested an LMIA. We decided to pursue both options since time was an issue and the IEC could supposedly get me a permit much faster. That turned out to be true, I got the IEC permit and we let the (positive) LMIA go to waste.

Obviously it turned out to be a mistake to try and use that LMIA on my PR application (although I feel like most people would agree, looking at it from a purely human perspective, that my case for 'arranged employment' is about as solid as they come, e.g. over 2 years with the same company, including an admittedly expired and unused LMIA, and a continued offer following PR. It really seems like they were just being sticklers for the rules and refused me on a technicality).

But oh well, like I said, not worth dwelling on it. We literally submitted the paperwork for a new LMIA for me this morning so things are already looking up. I'll get that within a couple of months, get a new ITA, and hopefully have PR by next summer.

All the very best for you new process.

did you get your PPR on Nov 8 or Oct??
 
I think today was a quiet day. mostly because of remembrance day people might have taken some vacations to get a really long weekend. most probably next Tuesday will be a busy day for all of us.
