Its PPR guys!!!!!!
I'm happy, excited... RELIEVED!
It came in exactly 1 week after passing Eligibility. It was Review Required for POF, but that didn't delay the application much.. So hang in there everyone who's still waiting, it's coming soon!
Thanks everyone for your support, it was really helpful and good luck to you all!
Hey! Congratulations!
I'm at Review Required for POF too. I'm really hopeful now that you're in the clear that I'll probably get mine soon. Did you change to IP2 or something before you got the PPR?

I wrote to Mr. Goodale's office. I got the following reply:

Dear xxxxx - I spoke to IRCC regarding your application received Dec 13, 2018. It is at the Centralized Intake Office in Sydney.

Standard processing time is 6 months. This means 80% of routine applications are completed within that time frame, while 20% take longer.


Eligibility is met.

Criminality passed.

Security checks have not been initiated. They cannot be expedited and timelines are not available.

Medicals are valid until Nov 30, 2019.


Sincerely,

Robyn Sullivan

Office of the Hon. Ralph Goodale, MP

Regina-Wascana


It's clear that Mr. Sullivan has a set format to reply to applicants. One thing that baffled me is though I applied while residing in Canada, how come my application is in Sydney! According to my GCMS notes, the primary office is Centralized Intake Office, and the secondary office is CPC-Ottawa. Is there any miscommunication?

Waiting is slow-poisoning :(

Thanks everyone!

So here's my timeline:
AOR: December 29, 2018
Medicals passed & biometrics request: February 11
Long silence.
Ordered gcms notes in early May, got them early June to find out that eligibility is marked Review Required for POF (most probably for currency conversion reason).
ADR: July 16 (they asked for my spouse's previous marriage divorce certificate and never asked for updated POF)
Ghost update: August 6
Called IRCC the next day and found out that Eligibility was met.
PPR: August 13

Good luck and all the best to you all future Canadians! :)
Congrats

Please let me know if you have any update ? We are in the same boat and same forms on same day requested :D

It is just slow but it will happen - just give it some time and keep checking other months forum - especially from June/July 2018 to see how they are catching up to backlog applications ..
Good luck

Centralized Intake Office is located in Sydney, Nova Scotia (Canada). I guess it is a starting point for all applications, many of them, including mine, are processed there.
