Not all VOs send the notification. Have heard the same for London and Hong Kong at least.

~3months so fast for PR, hopefully I am that lucky

Yes. They will put one time entry visa on your passport and also provide you a letter COPR (Confirmation of PR). Exact validity of these documents is printed on them and you will need to do the landing at Canada Border (before that expiry date) where you will be granted the PR. Then using the stamped documents, you can apply for the PR card.

Hi all.. Just wondering, how long does CIC take to respond to a webform inquiry? I have asked them to update my email and resend medical request.

I tried to check status on online tool, still says “we received your application on April 26”. But when I tried to link it to gckey it says I can not link as I have selected a representative for my application.
Seems like my lawyer gonna give me some good news tomorrow. Lol.
So April 26th applicants, I guess you all should try to link your application now, it might work you never know.

Congrats. But how does someone get there PR in 3 months.

 

[sekharz]

Congratulations! So, it seems it never got transferred to New Delhi VO. Any idea if they do that only in certain situations?

Thank you. No idea when they will transfer to New Delhi VO. But as of now most of them were transferring to Mississauga VO for further processing.

Mississauga processes Applications faster than any other VO. One US applicant was approved in 56 days.

My God, it's like once I received AOR everything slowed down and yet I see other people of April 23rd get BR and SA and MR.

This stress is big. I check every morning and evening

Are you trying to call from within Canada or Outside?

I've called twice from within Canada and have had no issues either. Have waited about 30 minutes for wait time. There isnt an option to speak to someone but when I pressed 00 i was able to wait to speak to someone.
