Salom Sohrab:)
do they usually ask for updated security check? my husband redid his medical last week but we didn't know if he should redo the security check too. did you get the check all translated and ready to go when they ask? I remember his first check taking almost a month to get sent to him.... maybe he should redo it just in case???
yeah yeah DEFINITELY do the police +10 check,in my case arghavan( my wife) did it on the 27th of December and they just called her today saying it can take another 10 days to receive it( they send it by mail)

Thx nairyd! I think I will tell my husband to redo it. doesn't hurt to be over prepared:) I called CIC last week to ask a question and mentioned redoing the medicals without being requested to. the agent was so upset and told me I shouldn't have because sometimes they extend them so I just wasted all that money! I told him I didn't mind and didn't think it was a waste of money if it saved us a month but he was insistent that I shouldn't have "wasted" the money. I don't think they realize how much one month sooner would mean to us!! ;)
haha yeah i said that to many applicants, we had too, it was part of our protocol , at the end of the day maybe 1 person wasted money!

Hello Members,

I just want to make sure that i have not missed a communication attempt from the Damascus office.

At the moment on the online status application i see Application received. does this change when they request the medicals? e.g. in progress

Thanks
no , nothing will change, 1/100 is even too lucky! dont worry about ECASE , focus on your file and the timeline

it Seems like Kamal's message or ramzi joon's or vivi's or mine has made NO difference in this forum................
does no one like to read something they dont like?!

DEAR NEW PEOPLE.............. DEAR OLD BUT NEW PEOPLE

We(as a crowd) Are all in the same situation..........

Since our Dearest Kamal started this forum We have had 4 month PPR and we have had 20 month PPR which was unfortunately the CREATOR of this forum

Questions , Concerns , Thoughts Are always welcome but PLEASE keep the NEGATIVITY out of this forum,
PM eachother and do it? am i wrong?

We have always had Senority in this forum, first there was kamal and last there was nagz, i dont want to mention the ones in between because that just takes too long but of the people who have been here in this forum i think i am the one at the moment who has senority,

no dont swear at me, im a nobody i know, but atleast i can use the 10.5 months of patience + 4.5 years of CIC experience to try and help, guide,calm all of my dear friends.....
no disrespect to ddobro2 but hey in this forum sohrab has been around longer ;)

Sohrab: Since you were in Damascus and work for CIC can you please tell us how the medicals are transfered from Paris to Damascus? is it by doplomatic mail or is there an online system designed for this purpose. I am guessing the later ! I hope this is not a classified information and your answer to this would be useful!
By the way did you have a chance to have dinner at al Garyeh ?

no i didnt have a chance to browse around, i was pretty much stuck at the hotel or the embassy,
anyways the medical results are sent to paris because that is the CPS (central processing system)
they provide embassies with results , in some cases the immigration officer asks for the ACTUAL results but in most cases the green sheet is the GREEN LIGHT to go ahead with the PPR, NOT all medicals are sent to damascus
