Well, not necessarily true. Many applicants learn that CIC are very unpredictable, myself included. I received basically the same request as the one you referred to, except they requested PPR noting interview waived etc. Naturally I assumed that this was the final stage and COPR would follow within a month or so. I heard nothing for 3 months and made enquiries by email. Eventually they replied to advise that my application had been sent to LA for finalizing. I ordered the GCMS notes but couldn't find any reason why this happened. Was it administration error, or random audit review or a grouchy visa officer happy to make our lives miserable, who can say. Unfortunately the decision has added an extra 8 months wait time or more to the completion of processing.
Chala this is the first I've heard of this, I thought you'd be done by now...mainly have been checking to see if anyone pm'd me or if someone needed updating on spreadsheets. I'm so sorry you are going through all that!
