my husband was here with me for less than 6months and he went back january 2014 to pak. We have representative on file and she didnt received PPR yet for us
usually when the ecase changes to in process within 45 days they sent out ppr.. and since ur gcms says phep ready which is passport, height, eye color, pictures ... it means they were planning to send it out .. either u will receive it in few days and if not then u might have missed it out ! pls chk with ur representative and MP .. I recd my phep in 38 days after ecase changed to in process.

I'm in the same situation...my ecase changed to "in process" 40 days ago...i'm waiting for my GCMS notes to arrive hopefully by next week...let's see what they say.

also, does PPR come through email or mail?

It depends on whether you provided the applicant's email address in the forms. By providing email address you agree it to be the default mode of contact.

So got gcms notes that file transferred to London visa office in march 2014. I see notes say on 14 march, 2014 RCMP require fingerprint FM: In addition to PHEP pls request fingerprints for RCMP. Then it says on same day 14 march,2014 Office:Islamabad Text: File reviewed and satisfied meets eligibility as FC1 and relationship is genuine.PA has returned from visit visa in CDA. IMM docs on file FOSS seach and no adverse info CSQ on file Meds passed for sept 2014 RPRF paid FM: PHEP ready.

Application status1: open, in progress office isb date 2014/03/14
Application status 2: open app status reason: TFR workloaded re distribuion office london updated date 14 march,2014. updated date 2014/03/13 in process
Application status 3: open in progress office london updated date 2014/02/24
Application status 4: open TFR workload re distribution office islamabad updated date 2014/02/12

what do you guys understand from these notes? They put these notes on 14 march ,2014 same day my ecas changed to in process. The thing is that my husband has multiple visit visa he came to canada last year for 6 months. and now again he is comin mid of may on visit visa because i am giving birth in june. As per notes, PHEP ready means what? we are confused that shuld he cancel his ticket and wait more to get PPR??? i dont understand if its london who put these notes or isb?
here is our timeline:
husband case App filed:feb 2012
remedical+pacc+forms req aug 2013
If PPR was sent out then it should mentioned in GCMS notes where 'outgoing section'. Please check also.

Dear Members, Just finished sending emails to the opposition parties, Please find links below:
www ndp ca/contact, www liberal ca/contact/, www greenparty ca/contact, and LAST but not least (www conservative ca/).
Email Contact below:
Dear ABC, with great pain I am writing this email and also with the hope that your party will raise Immigration inhuman treatment towards spousal immigration for Pakistani community. Family re-union had been a smooth process of 6-10 months in the past, where-as people now are waiting for years (In some cases almost 5 years) to be united to their wife/children. Time frames are effecting only to people that are sponsoring from Pakistan. Most cases I know (In thousands), spouses are apart from their partners, and children are being born abroad and are missing both their parents under one roof.
Recently (July 2013), after waiting years in the hope to be united with family, ISLAMABAD High Commission transferred thousands of files to LONDON (ENGLAND) High Commission of Canada. This news came as a surprise without any prior notice or explanation till this day.
If work load is the only reason then why our fellow neighboring countries are being processed within a year mark (Same Category), when I strongly believe their application load is higher number than Pakistan.

All we need is a solution to this problem which is affecting so many families in numerous ways. Kindly be our voice and raise this issue to help so many people re-unite their families.

KEEP UP THE HOPE AND RAISE YOUR VOICES SO WE CAN BE HEARD IN PAIN. GOOD LUCK FELLOWS!!!! Please change as desired. Thanks
