I've been reading these posts for a while and wanted to chime in with my timeline.
Category: QSW
Visa Office: CPP-Ottawa
(Buffalo transfer)
Appn filed: 16/06/2011
AOR: 25/10/2011
Med req: 01/11/2011 (and, therefore, expired
)
File transfer: 22/07/2012 (found out through my local MP)
For anyone interested, my country of origin is England, but I'm currently working in Montreal on a temporary work permit.
I didn't bother including my CSQ application information.
It's too depressing to think that I made that application in November 2010!
I'm not sure why my file was transferred so late. Everyone else is quoting dates earlier than 22nd July.
I'm at a loss at understanding why the federal part of this application is taking so long.
I've stopped holding my breath and crossing my fingers!
