yep I think 3-6 months is the normal timeline...

Buffalo used to set to IN PROCESS when all the checks were complete. So then it usually took about a month or less to get PPR.

With Ottawa, when officer is assigned, usually they set to IN PROCESS.

my friend had a similar case. they asked her for police certificates and same day it went to in process. She is still waiting for PPR after sending the documents 2 months back.

PCC is mandatory whereas Finger printing requests are random. I did the RCMP fingerprinting in July. It took a week to do. This also means that your file is now 'in process'. You will see the status change in ecas very soon (perhaps a week). I havent yet got my PPR yet. Usually the wait time is 3 months after inprocess. So am I told :)

@ suduko

my wife did her medical in advance alst year before Buffalo asked her ---she did her medicals on 26 July 2011---so her expired---but they pverall medical expired for both of us ---

But in notes VO wrote ; " backgroud checks and Medical extensions are apparently only two thing required "

so they might extend medicals
