Upto 3 weeks is normal practice. Can you tell me when did you submit your RCMP?

I submitted RCMP on June 7th

It is a terrible processing policies. It's been almost a month since I sent my passports for stamping and I haven't received yet. My application got approved last week 14th July. Tracking not activated yet.
I had to postpone my travel plans becoz of their stupid laziness.

Mine was approved on July 14th and I just got my COPR, you should get it really soon.

 

[Hopeoflife]

True these guys have slowed it down for some reason.

Some ppl got PPR direct from NA. That's strange too.

 

[Omidahomie]

My additional document status went from being reviewed to Uploaded. What does that mean? My bgc didn't change.

 

[Sharkando]

You have exact timeline as me. Same AOR and same Medical. Even I have gotten this email few weeks back.

I am stuck on background in process since 2.5 months now. I am CEC inland.

Update here if you hear anything. Good luck.

Hi

I received a reply from cpc ottawa email application status email.I got below reply now.

Dear Sir/Madam,

Your application was received is currently in queue for review by an officer. Please note that we are unable to estimate the remaining processing time required for your application.

We thank you for your patience. In order to efficiently process requests, we will not reply to duplicate emails.

Regards,

Any guess how much it takes to get PPR from here?

Please help.

Hello everyone, I got the golden email today!!!

CEC inland

AOR March 17th
Med Pass Apr 5th
Applied for GCMS notes on June 13th
PPR July 21st

BTW, I talked to the CIC agent who mentioned it's been approved in system on Monday but there is a delay between approve and PPR. A small detail I noticed is that when I log in to my cic account on early this week the page showed "Update" but when I view the application status page nothing has changed and it changed back to "Submitted" again ever since. Dont know if the detail mean anything.

It's the next step now, is there any tips for after PPR? Anyone may share their experience or clue? Truly appreciated.

Thanks very much for everyone's support in the forum and all the best for your application as well.

I applied my GCMS notes just a week before my PPR is issued and got it in exactly 30 days. I was fortunate to see the whole detailed process of my complete application to the PPR since the notes was generated on the same day that they issued my PPR. I would share my analysis on how they process CEC applications.



Long words short, I think that they have 3 validation stages through the process:

0. The start of everything is medical pass. This triggers multiple processes to start including but not limited to criminality check. (29 days after the time you take your exam)

1. Program Assistant Review (10 days after medical pass)

a. This role does a very rough check on your files after your medical passes. (maybe this is R10)

2. Case Analyst Review (30 days after the Program Assistant Review)

a. To me this is the real and most important role that may send out procedural fairness letter (or the procedural fairness letter is sent by the immigration officer who knows..)

b. This role runs a thorough validation on your files and write a detailed report on what he/she find and submit the report to the immigration officer

c. This person also makes a rough decision of your eligibility A11.2 such as “Recommend Pass”

d. This person’s notes are long and are in details.

3. Immigration Officer Review (24 days after the Case Analyst Review)

a. The immigration officer makes the final decision based on the report gathered by the case analyst.

b. This role determines whether he/she is satisfied with your eligibility A11.2 and makes a final decision right after you pass A11.2.

c. Though this role’s notes are very short, according to the processing time during this stage, this role may also do a thorough validation on your files.

4. PPR send out (6 days after the Immigration Officer Review)


Details:

Day 16: Files transferred from Centralized Intake Office to CPC Vegreville

Day 28: Medical Passed. Criminality In Progress. RCMP submitted and passed on the same day. US Partner Biographic check submitted and passed on the same day.

Day 29: Files transferred from CPC Vegreville to CPC Ottawa

Day 38: Program Assistant Review - Candidate Eligibility at CPC Vegreville

Score met, Fees Paid, Med pass, R10 Pass, English Test Met (This is the earliest time I see the keyword R10 appears in the notes)

PCC Pass, RCMP Pass, Criminality – Recommend Pass

Day 56: My first GCMS note generated (I guess that the visa officer can see this message in their system)

Day 58: Biographic shared with the USA returned as Passed.

Day 68: Case Analyst Review - Class Eligibility(CEC) at CPC Ottawa

Reviewed everything that Program Assistant reviewed and

CRS Score Summary, Current status in Canada, Marital status, Medical Validity, Passport Validity, Work experience

A11.2 Recommend Pass

[To me, Case Analyst is the real person that does thorough validation of your application documents including researching your work experience through web-based search, calculating your work period in detail, confirming your annual salary, job description/NOC, full-time/part-time job type, employment letter, as well as validating your paystubs]

Day 92: Criminality Passed

Day 92: Officer Review – Eligibility at CPC Ottawa

Reviewed everything that Case Analyst reviewed and

Satisfied with the application without any concerns. Eligibility Pass - A11.2 Pass

[The officer is the real big CROWN guy who takes the detailed report from the case analyst, reviews the report and determines whether this application is okay or not. The officer will approve your application right after A11.2 passes. In my case, the final decision was made in 2 minutes after A11.2 passed.]

Day 92: Security is only mentioned here as not started through the whole GCMS note. No further details. It’s either withheld by them or never started…

Day 92: Final decision made, application approved. (This approval only shows in the GCMS notes)

Day 98: Ready For Visa email sent (This is PPR)

Day 98: Group Number Assigned (from other’s GCMS notes showing they seem to process Passport in batches/groups)

Day 99: (Digital) COPR Saved to The System and queued for printing

Day 99: (Digital) Counterfoil Saved to The System and queued for printing


I have never had a chance to dig into “Security” check as the GCMS notes did not mention anything.

Does this mean if CEC has passed 100 days mark, although no PPR, the chance of rejection is low?

Hi everyone - this has been my journey so far - hope It helps someone to assess how far along they are:

Start Date End Date Days Taken
21-Jan-17 09-Feb-17 19 Medicals Passed
09-Feb-17 01-Mar-17 20 BG changed to Not Needed/Not Applicable
01-Mar-17 22-Jun-17 113 BG changed to IP2
22-Jun-17 07-Jul-17 15 IP2 to PPR

You will notice that the period from NA to IP2 is certainly the longest - I'm PNP Outland by the way

I feel a bit better looking at your timeline. I will wait patiently now
AOR: March 4 2017
Medical Passed: June 6 2017
BG Status: NA since a long time. I guess IP1
Type of applicant: PNP Outland

 

[cecgirl4]

I submitted my RCMP + Sch A on June 11th and no update since then. The average time is about 3 weeks to see some changes correct? I've been in IP1 since April 5th. What could be a possible hold up?

Should I still be worried about not passing eligibility? I'm CEC, AOR Mar 18

 

[sentraj]

You have exact timeline as me. Same AOR and same Medical. Even I have gotten this email few weeks back.

I am stuck on background in process since 2.5 months now. I am CEC inland.

Update here if you hear anything. Good luck.

have you been requested RCMP Certificate? I was asked to submit it on June 12 and I submitted it on June 22.

 

[Ps_vp]

any guys from FSWO stream still stuck at Not Applicable stage????

I have a similar timeline with AOR 28/03/2017. I am also stuck at NA. May I know where your application been processed currently if you have tried to find out.
