Yes completely normal. Ghost update doesn't always mean PPR. I also got ghost update 7 days back, but nothing happened after the ghost update. Called CIC, agent who wasn't very helpful. Said Background check is "half done". I am not sure what he meant by "half done". Says eligibility in progress.

AOR : 14 April
Direct IP2 & MEP : 20 April
Ghost update: 21st August.

Hi All,

Got PPR 9th of August, was very busy.

My timeline as below:

AOR - 16 April 18
MEP/ IP1 - 24 April 18
IP2 - 2 August 18
PPR - 9 August 18
Passport sent NDVO - 9 August 18
Got passport back - 27 August 18.

Ordered GCMS notes July 10, interestingly my GCMS notes showed that file is recommended pass on 27th April, then after no background or security started till 10 July, so they just kept file on side I think for the Single applicant and re-start the process after 2.5 months.

Be patient & All the Best to Everyone!! :) :)

Hi Friends,

I have a query, while making express entry profile I mentioned destination Ontario, Toronto. I got my COPR and on it it's mentioned Toronto Destination and province Ontario.

Now, I have already booked my flight to Montreal as my cousin is there so I changed the destination for first landing, later on I go to Toronto (after some days staying in Montreal).

Can you please help me here ?? -- Is it possible to do landing at the air-port other than mentioned on COPR ?

or I have to change flight and go to Toronto only ??

Please advise.

Thanks

We're doing exactly the same on September 29th. Landing in Montreal and taking the bus to Ottawa after 2 o 3 days. First of all, as far as we're concerned almost all flight itineraries from Tunis to Ottawa land in Montreal first, so even if we'd continued our trip directly to Ottawa we'd still have to deal with immigration formalities in Montreal. Second, as long as you can prove that you intend to settle outside Quebec, it shouldn't be an issue (like airbnb rental confirmatiom outside Quebec). Finally, I've read about a young lady who did exactly the same last year and didn't have any issues with immigration officers. Basically, you just need to stay coherent with the process, if you land in Montreal with nothing showing your intent to settle elsewhere, the immigration officer is definitely not going to be very nice with you.

Hi, I received a ghost update on August 10th and later called cic. They informed me that my file has been moved to London for BGC. My criminality and eligibility are cleared. So I guess its normal? Btw ip2 since august 08.

Waiting for PPR

MEP/IP1 -26 April
CEC INLAND
PA + 1 dependent
It’s been more than 4 months now I am still in Ip1 stage, there has been no change and no update in my application. Ordered GCMS notes on 21 August. Called CIC the first time agent said the same standard script wait 6 months we have the same info as you have. Called again last week this time the agent said my eligibility has not been met yet which is really concerning. I am really worried. Is anyone in same boat as me?? Still stuck at IP1 even after 4 months?


Btw the second agent said my file is at cpc Ottawa
