Hooray for another Vienna applicant! That makes three of us who were transferred there on Mar 11. You're right, it's so hard to estimate how long things are taking there lately, as there aren't many Vienna applicants on the trackers in the first place and then of those a lot of them don't update all the way through to the end of the process. Fingers crossed that we're processed quickly and don't have to just sit and watch all the CPC-M people fly by us here!
Congratulations! You are doing fine, remember this process is like marathon, a few steps ahead at the beginning would not impact the total process time. The real time consuming steps are all after AOR, SA, MP.
Yes, you can get update all the time through your GCKey account and ECAS and your email.
Almost got the same timeline. But still got no updates after Medical passed
Thank you - to everyone who responded! We are just in the process of getting more letters from family, got our quotes from the pet moving company for shipping our labrador over, a list of houses we have looked at rental wise even though we wont be living in them and a brief document outlining our plans. Also my daughters canadian citizenship just arrived yesterday so included a picture of that too.Aw shucks, thanks, @alaria! Wasn't sure I was really offering that much that was new, but I'm glad if you found it helpful
@helen86 - Your comment about moving to Canada at the end of the year brought up one last thought from me, which is that I have read that's it's best not to lay out too firm a timeline, especially if it's seen as being too far in the future. It sounds to me like your application is actually being processed quite swiftly, in which case the officers (supposedly) won't like to hear that you are planning to come on a specific date that may in fact be months after they're anticipating you'll receive COPR. Though they must understand most people have to give notice at work or with landlords, etc, they nevertheless essentially want to hear that the sponsor will move to Canada as soon as the PA is approved. Of course, in reality once you get your COPR you usually have a significant window of time within which to land, but for the purposes of this step you're better off being a little on the vague side. Again, all that is based only on what I've read, so take from it what you will!
