buds,

as it is no movement so far..
That is what it seems like. My file is still in transit between Ottawa and Buffalo, so if you guys got your GCMS Notes you should know when your file reached Ottawa.

In this article, It says that Buffalo will close definitely by the end of June. This may mean that all the files will be transferred by then.

If you told them previously to contact you by email, then you will get email as contact....or else your
asking contacting information will be used.

Well I don't think they follow method of contact we provided them in application form, because i received AOR and Additional Document request and Landing fees request via post, i believe it depends on Visa Office and as well as on Officer.

If your case is in process, I would say 2 month from that date. I have hardly seen any PPR come through as files were in transit. Hopefully, sometime soon!

@ Hooky
Hello, Maybe he submitted is medicals in Feb.2012....Because it CAN NEVER be possible for him to submit Federal part by that time and be getting PPR, even though it has code 130: Piriority Treatment...
So try to understand the process please
I have code 130 also, but it has been 6 months since "medical results have been received" and I got no update. Really do not know if the priority matters. I guess since ottawa-pilot need to handle so many cases, the processing time just prolonged.

Was "Priority treatment" written against the Code 130?...Because, some have code 130 without priority treatment against it.
If you have code 130, that means normal processes without priority.
