if you check my GCMS post in April AoR thread, they requested for RPRF after two rounds of review - the first round on April 19 was conducted by a Program Asst. at CIO, where the recommendation was 'Pass' (both eligibility and criminality), and then another round by the case analyst at CPC, Ottawa on May 14, following which the request for RPRF was generated by the same case analyst at that point; the case analyst also recommended 'Pass'(nothing on criminality here).
The final review (dunno when) will be conducted by an officer, taking both recommendations into consideration, and initiating the BGC, which I don't think will take long. I have been in what people call the IP1 stage for about 57 days now, so great chance I am directly going to move to PPR or move to IP2 for a matter of hours (hate the IP1-IP2 terms) Is it going to be smooth sailing? Yup, as I have no criminal history and no security issues in my record. It is a matter of waiting now - how long I have no idea.
P.S.: The case analyst, quite oddly, made notes about the inconsistent design on my WES ECA report, after the Program Assistant had already verified the data against the WES database in the previous round.
