BUFFALO APPLICANTS - File transferred to other VO due to Buffalo closing down

[speednab]

the problem my wife is not here and she needs to have hers done, can she do them in the embassy in Tunisia?

Salam,
She may take the fingerprint in the embassy and then you need to mail them out to the FBI office here in the US.

My feelings is they ask for PC and probably re-medical to only those people whose cases never went in process.. I could be wrong too.

My case has been in process since May 2012 and I was asked to submit PC and the personal history. No medical yet..I hope not!

May 2012, and Buffalo closed down in May as well, most likely they (buffalo) only changed the status on e-case but didn't started other checks such as Criminality, Security etc.. I could be wrong.

They started them before they closed as they asked me for my wife PC in the same month. It was confirmed by Ottawa later.

looks like generic reply.

 

[andrew701]

hmm then i don't know why they ask PC to only specific group, persons who have recently receive PPR they weren't asked for PC or re-medical.

My GCMS notes had my medical as "passed" and my criminal as "in progress" before they asked me to redo my medical and PC (a few weeks ago). I assume criminal is to do with PC and so i don't think it matters if it was put in progress by buffalo or not.

 

[bha]

looks like generic reply.

Yup Just generic reply....acording to CIC, July Applicants can get PPR after August 2013....and Last two week july applicants getting PPR so what is that ?

 

[syed_h_sha]

hmm then i don't know why they ask PC to only specific group, persons who have recently receive PPR they weren't asked for PC or re-medical.

because of the pressure by the Buffalo applicants...they just wanted to drag and keep us waitiing for few more months.......

 

[HMIDATOU]

First email was sent out at about 2PM yesterday and it said that they might ask medical exam again. So I was hoping that they don't ask. But then second email arrived at 7:30PM and it came with medical forms for me and my wife.

When did you get your first email? I would check with them if they don't ask by the end of Feb.

i got my email yesterday around 12 pm, and to day i got an email at 11 am, it was a reply to my email that i sent out September 7th 2012 loool.
am still waiting on the medical exam email.

 

[MyCat]

Ecas is now working for me after 2 weeks.

It says even less than it did before and they changed my address back to my old one.

How rubbish are they?!?

 

[na1234]

So I applied in Feb2011 and they said they should give us an update before end of feb, still don't have any update yet, is there anybody who is WAAAY PRE-September 2011 that is still waiting for an update.

I only see 8 business days left before Feb 28, so we will see, also when I ordered my GCMS in Dec. I saw that EVERYTHING was passed, and even my medical was extended until Aug.2013, so i hope they don't ask for anything extra. or something stupid like a CV.
