I don't think so. Many people got PPR earlier than me and I had a higher number of points than them.

Saph said:
Hi Pepe,

Do you think people with higher points, probably get PPR faster?

CPC-Ottawa will revise the number of points that CIO granted you in the first review. In my case, CIO gave me 75 points because they didn't consider my reference letter from back home. However, when my file was reviewed at CPC Ottawa, the VO gave me two extra points for my work experience back home. This review made by CPC was reflected in my GCMS notes. Understood?

So you have three lines already. The fourth line will correspond to the status DECISION MADE (when you get PPR), and will say: a decision has been made on your application and the 5th line will correspond to the status COMPLETE, and will say; you entered Canada and became a permanent resident.

Saph said:
Congrats pepe :). what are the other lines though? I see just there lines for mine, as following:

We received your application for permanent residence on January 20, 2014.

We started processing your application on September 11, 2014.

Medical results have been received.

Congrats! You probably get your MR very soon too. Please let us know once you got it :)

May I ask under which NOC you have applied? (TA/RA only or other experience).

Any other forum member who got MR or RPRF recently?

Congratulations!

It seems that you had been waiting for your PPR after doing the medical exam for a long time.

Do you know why it took so long? Could you please share your visa officer and your country of nationality?

Thanks,

Hi Everybody,

I received my PPR on Jan 13 and sent my passport on Jan 14. Now more than two weeks have passed, I still haven't received my passport. My return package (eXpresspost) hasn't been activated yet. Is that normal? I am really worried about my passport. I have contacted CIC via email three days ago, but haven't seen any response. Is there any way to inquiry about my passport status? I tried CIC call centre, but they were not helpful.

Thanks.

Hi All,
Does anyone have an idea why there is a kind of delay in charging CC for PhD stream? I can see other applicants CC have been charged up to applications received on 10th of Dec, yet I'm a 1st of Dec applicant yet to be charged.

I do not known how people can not wait few weeks or few days while if you look for other applicants has waiting for almost five years!!! All qualification are similar or even is better than "PhD steams" applicants. All my Plame is to CIC system. Now with new system, EE system, qualification will trough those applicant based "TA/RA" experience on the bottom of the list.

Yes, the bank draft hasn't been cashed, i called my bank yesterday. And I have access to the eCAS with my study permit's uci number, the status is "in process" with only one item:
1. We received your application for permanent residence on November 19, 2014.

Probably there is gap between the cic's withdraw and the bank processes the draft like clearing a cheque. They won't gave the status access before getting the money, right?

You said your money hasn't been taken and you already have access to eCAS? :eek: :eek: :eek: Are you sure your money hasn't been cashed yet?
