To those that have sent their passports to the government... did you get any updates in your online account before receiving your CoPR and passport in the mail?
There is a decision made update, after that update, you will receive your passport within a week.
Currently it takes around 3-4 weeks after pp was received, so be patient you will receive it eventually.

I just saw an update on my cic page. It said, "application updated" or something like that but no actual email or any sort of notification in my profile.
All the fields look the same. Hope the process is moving along.
I called CIC today to check the "exact" status of my application because I did not hear anything new after the Medical Passed and We are processing your background check... status in early July. Got no help from CIC customer service in understanding the exact status. Rep said it is well under 6 months processing time and call us if you don't hear anything by November. How do u guys know about your file location and status of the background check etc.?

Type: CEC

Submitted: May 08
AOR: May 08
Medical Passed : June 19
RCMP Certificate Requested: Jun 19
RCMP uploaded : Jul 4
Other Police Certificates requested: Jul 04
Other Police Certificates uploaded: Aug 02
Send Original Police certificates to Edmonton: Aug 6 8AM
Refusal letter: Aug 06 4PM :-(

Refusal reason: work experience is not valid because I was issued study permits and was a full time student at the same time when I am working

My Comment: I don't think that they look on to my application properly. They just assumed that I am a full-time student at the period when I am working because of the issued study permits. To be clear, I hold PGWP also as I graduated with different program. I applied study permit while I have the work permit and this is OK as confirmed by IRCC before I started my application for study permit. Going back to my case, when I was working, I am studying part-time (night time, tough schedule) for 3 semesters/ 3 courses per sem/ 9 hours per week. Though I didn't submit any explanation on this, but my education transcript was included in my application and they can see in there that I am a part-time student when I am working.

I hope that you can get something from my case.

PS. I am waiting for the next draw and submit letter of explanation.

Hello, I have a question. 1560 hours calculation.
My first job , flexible part time, sometimes 8 hours or 10 or 30 hours, as 2nd lnaguage instructor for 1370 hours so far and still continuing (March 2018 - ). Lately, i got a second job also a 2nd language professor, that is full time, and already worked 300 hours (June 10 - ). So working both jobs right now.
Is it possible to claim both jobs for one year full time experience CEC ? No overlapping risk? Reference letters for all of them?

Thank you
