@legalfalcon would be glad if you can answer my query. My medicals are about to expire by 19th November, and in my case my wife is a principal applicant and her medical will expire on 10th December, however our medicals were passed on 15th January 2020. But still I haven't heard anything from CPC-Ottawa for medical extension or to redo it, despite as per the webform reply 3 months back our elegibility is passed and security and criminality is valid.
What should be the next step and what should we expect?

If your medicals are about to expire, then they will be sent for reassessment to the Regional Medical Officer who will make an assessment on whether to extend them or ask for a re-med.

You will see this change on your MycIC account.

Dear @legalfalcon hope you are well.
I wanted to ask a quick question if you don't mind. Is there any authority that we can send an email to requesting them to graciously and kindly take a look at the situation at Ottawa VO? It has been such a long a time of inactivity for outland applicants at this office while many other VOs are operating at least at some level of capacity. It is becoming mentally torturing not hearing anything back from this VO.

Hi Everyone,
My medical is expiring Nov 21, 2020, but I have not heard anything from IRCC yet. Is there anything I can do about it or need to do about it? Application is still in progress.

The government is aware of the issue. However, Ottawa is currently a red zone and has been for the last few weeks. Operational realities are not unknown to the higher ups. The COVID cases are increasing and there is nothing much that any one can do. A lot of people have tried twitter campaigns, there are newspaper reports etc. But the fact of the matter remains is that we have to be patient. Everyone has a story and is facing hardship. So is IRCC and the their workforce.

Currently IRCC is prioritising family reunification, refugees application from Hong Kong and is continuing to process other applications as per their capacity.

Policy makers in IRCC are really genius. They just claimed that "we are prioritizing family reunification", while "we are placing such applications on hold". How could they say both?

Said exactly. They will not understand our frustration .

Hi @caipsnotes I called CIC today , the agent said everything is passed as of now but he don’t know what the final decision will be i.e., approved or refused. So what are chances after everything is passed?He kept insisting everything is passed as of now. What does this means? Your help will be highly appreciated. Thanks

Hi. Sounds encouraging that everything is passed and hopefully it's a positive outcome too. It's speculative but encouraging; did you send a web form as well

 

[KEIVAN_NA]

Been proactive with a letter of explanation won't be bad.

Tnx for your response. Actually, I would have told her to do so, as well
But I wished sb had the same experience, so that I can be more accurate with providing a suggestion with her case.

 

[KEIVAN_NA]

Hi, hope your are doing well, I do appreciate your advice @legalfalcon on a question on behalf of one of my acquaintances:

Based on GCMS note, her application is stuck in CPC-Ottawa since February 2020. Based on Case Analyst's note on February, her application meets the eligibility criteria under FSW category. However, no news from the officer to pass the eligibility after almost 8 months. It seems that the officer left a generic opening note for the application on March 6th, but nothing else afterwards.

There are two problems with her application, though. First, her employment letter does not present the amount of her latest annual salary, which the case analyst has noted and left a note that the salary is N/A. However, suggested eligibility meets the requirements.

Second, She has forgotten to include the certified copies of the translated documents.

Can either of these lead to a refusal based on your experience? And, would it be wise for her to send the certified copies and a new Proof of Work experience via a webform, considering almost 9 months has elapsed since her eAOR? Or she'd better wait for the officer and any possible additional document?

Sorry for raising the same question again. I thought you might have not noticed it the previous time

Hi
Request if you can decipher the contents of my GCMS notes (I am an Ontario PNP nominated FSW PR applicant).
I have made an extract of it under this link : https://ibb.co/8dPr6Pv
Further, in the latest webform reply dated 29th October 2020, I got the following info.:
"Please be advised your application has had a positive determination, however due to disruptions and restrictions due to COVID-19 there may be an impact on processing times. You will be contacted in regards to “Next Steps” in the near future."
I am bit worried about :
1) Outgoing Correspondence-1 reg. Kit, Application forms which I never received a request from them and don't know what this means and whether any action is really required from my side

2) Notes-1 reg. additional proof of funds. This ADR I received and immediately replied through updation in online account with suitable docs to their satisfaction . The same is also reflected in GCMS notes (Notes-3 and Notes-2). However, to be doubly sure I forwarded the documents through webform also and called them to inform about it after 10 days or so and this what reflected in Notes-1.

3) What do they exactly mean by Positive determination, that final decision is approved? Or is it still some intermediate process? As per information received from various sources (webform, telephone, e-mail) I had already passed all stages since 19th May 2020 and I always get standard issue replies like-Valid, Met, passed, etc. But this above webform reply is first time that they are conveying positive determination, so I am bit elated but sadly nothing after that.

Regards,
