Has anyone who got MR from Los Angeles VO recently received an RPRF letter with it?

I just received the Medical form (Schedule A) and the four page list of instructions for the same. Is not receiving the RPRF letter a cause for concern?

Thanks,
SF2005

Thank you Omm, I am not in the NOC 0213 category. I did, however, also post in the Buffalo to LA thread.

If anyone has any comments regarding recent MR requests with no RPRF from any VO, please do post.

Thanks,

Anuj,
This is a standard reply, at this stage all you can do is wait.

CAIPS notes might give you some more insight into the matter.

Thanks,
SF2005

I am not sure what this means: eCAS is reporting my file has been transferred to New York on November 16, but I have no other indication of this. I wrote my lawyer who said they had not gotten confirmation of the transfer, but when they did they would let me know. How long should I wait before I tell the lawyer to pester someone and find out if it really was transferred? Does eCAS mean anything useful in this case or just more "wait and see"?

Hi Skeptic,
Congratulations on the transfer of your file. That is usually good news, meaning your file typically might get to the next stage (Medical Request) over the next 90 days.

Unfortunately, off late, Ecas has shown a few errors (take a look at some of the threads on this forum and rest assured that you're not the only one). My Ecas took about two weeks to update after receiving an email from the Buffalo office to show the change. Have all your updates from the VO been received via email or snail mail?

You might want to have your lawyer email the Buffalo VO to request the status of your case just for your peace of mind. Also remember that Ecas typically updates EOD every Tuesday so if your ecas is updated, they should have already sent you a letter/email about a week ago.

Hope this helps,
SF2005

All previous updates have been email. I asked the lawyer and they basically said they'll do something once they hear from the office about the transfer. I think for now I will wait, if there's no change by the beginning of the year I will ask the lawyer to follow up. I don't want to push them too much to email the VO if they don't think it's necessary, but I am paying them to do my bidding ;)

Thanks for the information. Good luck!

So far I have always seen an email or paper mail precedes the online update.

Yes, files are being transferred to satellite offices like NY, Detroit, LA etc. If you saw that update on your e-cas, your file has been transferred. Check back in two weeks and there should be some progress and status update in e-cas. In my case, the file was transferred to NY from Buffalo. I see that on CAIPS as well but so far I have not received any email or mail notifying me of this transfer. From CAIPS, I know they are working on my file. You should hear something soon in Jan 2012, if not December due to holidays.

Thanks, I am glad to have some reassurance that this not necessarily just another eCAS SNAFU (though I know it always could be). Good luck with your application!
