August 2013 Applications

[Applebite]

Congrats to everyone who got MR, and all the best for awaiting members, you will get it soon.

Two questions -
1. When do we expect RPRF request email?
2. Since last week updates I am assuming that now no more Biodata request made by CIC, am I correct?

Thanks

Got my MR (07-Mar) and RPRF (10-Mar) emails from CIC. What are the other emails or documents that I should be expecting?
And is credit card the only way to pay the RPRF?

And is credit card the only way to pay the RPRF?

A list of payment options for RPRF is at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/fees/result.asp?lob=pric&cat=Permanent+Residence

- Pay online
- Pay at a financial institution
- Payment at CIC local office

Although, this may assume that you are paying RPRF with your application. The "Request for RPRF" email does specifically direct you to the online payment page. Whichever method you choose, you must submit your receipt to CPC-Ottawa.

Mostly MR comes first, then RPRF and Biodata.

Btw why you took long to submit PCC and FBI ? you should done at the time of application. I am saying because for PCC I got it in 6 weeks and for my wife it took 4 months - which is too long.

I got another email today which says to refer attached document but there is not document attached.
Does that mean its MR request?
If so how can I know its for me or my Spouse
Also Do we get PCC as letter or stamped in passport?

 

[LPS]

The same email should say to contact them if there is no document attached. So do this.

Doesnt it looks like aug is preety slow in processing as compared with previous months

 

[av300812]

Its March break and I assume thing will be slow for a while

 

[albrye]

Do visa officers take March breaks? I thought they were reserved for students and people in academia. And how long is march break typically? I was thinking only one week.

 

[av300812]

Well I assume March breaks are for kids and their parents
I suppose the March break is for a week and I hope things should get back to normal in a week or two

 

[sheena231]

Ya 1 week...school reopens on mar 17

 

[resubmitmypr]

Never thought I would hate kids breaks so much one day :-[

 

[capn b]

Im also wondering if the processed the earlier months so fast that they are a bit backed up.They must be receiving a lot of documents at the moment.

 

[sheena231]

I was thinking like till now cic might hv reviewed our aug files...like how they work....do they pick the file thethe same day if its complete they send medicals..
or do they review before n if its complete they start sending MRs....
