Hi,
I received the following email today from Ottawa. the subject was "requested fees". I am confused what they exactly want me to send them. beside RPRF and updated personal history, do they want Police certificates (I sent them my police certificates when I applied to Buffalo in March 2011)? Like always, your help is appreciated

Most of the people got the same mail. the police certificate is the confusing part.
if you read the mail the list of documents are in dotted. where in your case it is fee and personal history.
and rest mail is general format.

pay the fee and send the personal history. I guess you should be good to go .

wait for others to comment in this forum and act ..

good luck

Syed

just wait a couple of days, hopefully it is something positive

 

[McMont]

Thanks Syed . Any other comments guys?
Did any one get his/her PR soon after this email or I should expect another long wait?

 

[punk]

Does not medical expires after an year ?

 

[nima514]

I did in Nov. the only thing mentioned was medicals have been received.

what are the values of the security and criminality keys? is can be either blank, not started, passed or in progress.
I suspect Buffalo did not initiate our BG checks before it was closed. If that is true it means that we have just applied for immigration after waiting for two years (in my case).
