Hello Everyone,
I have applied through AINP,
Following is my timeline:

Feb 06- Application received

April 25- Medical request

May 02-Medical Done..

The status says "We recieved ur application on Feb 06. Medical Results have been received."
Does anyone have an Idea when should I expect to get PP request..I applied to Sydney office and they sent my file directly to CPP oTAWA..

I was told that my case is in 10 month processing time...

Also I did not send police clearance from India along with the application. Could anyone please suggest me if I should send Police clearance to Ottawa office or should I wait for their next correspondence..

Thanks in Advance..
to save time get the PCC and send it, at some point of time they will ask it for sure.

I am planning to pay my RPRF (right of permanent residence fee). Since my file is transferred to Ottawa, can I still use the online payment? If it helps to process my application faster. Don't know does it really helps or messed up the process again.

thanks,

No. I don't.
I enjoy sitting in this boat with so many other people.
At least, we know we are not alone in this wonderland.

The shore? We are not there yet, but I won't be far.
Keep All your joy and happiness. I will do the same for sure.

I don't believe in times, or time tables. There would be an end to the story, sooner or later.
Better to stay positive! Negative is only good in Photography! ;D

I emailed them a month ago regarding the same thing. No response. Emailed again 2 weeks later, still no response. I'm taking it as "no news is good news..."
I finally got a response from them. Not sure if I'd call it encouraging, but here it goes:

Dear Sir/Madam,

This is in response to your email (see below).

Your application is in process. No further action is required by you at this time. The officer responsible for your file will contact you if any action is required from you.

In the meantime, please ensure your information is kept up-to-date, particularly if there is a change in your marital status or in the event of a birth or death in your family. You must also advise this office of any change to your contact information, such as a change in your residential or e-mail address.

We thank you for your patience and for keeping your correspondence to a minimum.

This is a typical response.
Just to keep people quiet and to keep people from sending further messages.

After careful reading the notes and comparing/cross referencing dates and times in my GCMS notes i can tell:

Created has been a lot between 3pm and 6pm.

Most of the stuff was updated between 11am and 5pm, except my N.Z. Police clearance seemed to be updated 11.50pm. hope he's got the overtime paid. ;D

The Day before the AOR (same day of transfer i guess as well)

Actions started or accomblished by the VO (Ottawa):

Check Payments, Start Security, Start/Check Eligibility, Create Paperfile, Start/Check Crime,
Check already accompanied PCC's, Check Schedule 5 (Intend to reside in Quebec)

Received AOR 3rd May 2012: RCMP Check (has been checked before i sent the RCMP Fingerprint, so, i guess, they wouldn't have asked me)
Meds attached to AOR

Ecas Access 7th May shows: App. for PR received...

After Eligibility and Schedule 5 seemed to have finished, Ecas showed: Started Processing 23.May 2012

Next update was 27th June: Paperfile update, Crime Check seemed to be finished, PCC's seemed to be confirmed, Meds must have been received,

28th June Ecas shows: Meds received

More or less, (all of) the above has been finished until my last due date 27 July 2012. At THIS day Ecas showed/added "Current Mailing Adress". Security is the only one being left blank since the beginning.

Of course, this is only in my case if it comes to times/dates, but regarding the "routine stuff", it should give a little picture of what was/is going on.
