:( :( :( Am I the only one in AUGUST 2013 Forum of not recieved MR :( ...its getting very tough..... I applied from UK and mentioned London, UK as my immigration office. I eqnuired with them and got to know that they have not recieved my file yet.

Is there any way to conatct CEC Ottawa office other than GCMS notes and I read in forum it would take 1 month to get notes. Very recently I had sent my newly renewed passport copies to CEC ottawa and I suspect that could have delayed my application. Can I directly call CEC ottawa, if so could someone please provide me the contact number.

Thanks

From the looks of other cases it seems that when new docs are sent it takes a while about 2 weeks for it to be reviewed, mostly that is the case. Just hang in there you will get it soon. BTW when did you send them the renewed PP copies?

Is any one here who count off campuswork permit eexperience after graduating while waitinf for pgwp and got medical??
Dont worry they do consider OCWP experience while you are waiting for your pgwp. I was in the same case because I added my OCWP experience for 1 year work experience and I was worried that whether they would consider it or not. I sent additional document explaining that I am not clear on how they calculate the work experience and attached some supporting documents with my email.

The reason why I am so sure is that in my latest GCMS notes there was a note mentioned by VO stating that OCWP experience is calculated after graduation until you receive your PGWP. Which means my OCWP experience was considered.

Also i have already received my MR and RPRF.

This is good to hear! :)

Can you share your experience on the below thread?
http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/-t187458.0.html

A lot of aspiring CEC applicants are confused about counting work experience on an off-campus work permit, as it is a bit of a grey area.

Thanks :)

Good, what does your ECAS say about the date they started processing your application. Did you check your junk and spam email folders to check whether you have received MR?
I'm August -23 applicant and still waiting for MR.

Received Medicals request : 11th March 2014
Medicals Done : 19th March 2014
RPRF requested : 19th March 2014
Medicals Sent : 27th March 2014

Still I don't see any status that "Medicals Received".
When can I expect the request for PPR ? any guess? is this normal?

The change to medicals received can take up to a week after uploading the medicals.
