No update other than "Application Received" since May 28 :( (when they requested ECA online access, which was confirmed received since June 12 by CIC Call Centre)
That makes 5 weeks without any change, and 3 months since I initially submitted my application online to CIC.

Why do you think my application is still in review for eligibility ? Submitted all required documents that I triple-checked before submission. :-\
Any members with same kind of extensive delayed experience ? When do you think my ECAS will update to "In Process" ? ???
 
Looking at general timelines it's been taking 8-10 weeks from app received to in process on ECAS. Just be patient it will come eventually

Frustrating thing, it's been 3 months (12 weeks, passed that general timeframe) since I received the AOR on April 8 :'(
Is the timeframe you mention based on the AOR from MyCIC or "Application Received" from ECAS ?

Waiting isn't fun... However, they have given the expectation that EE will be within 6 months (24 weeks) from when they received a complete application. Be patient, your time (and the rest of ours) will come soon!

I have been asked to submit schedule 4 and 4A for provincial nominee but the 4A is not applicable to me and have been asked to upload both. Kindly advise what to do
 
Dear VIP, Champion, Hero, and Star Members, I would highly appreciate your responses to a few of my questions below. Apologies for mixing up the content. My CRS is 442 and might reach 452 after spouse ECA. I am also contemplating to take TEF (test d'evaluation francais) and hope to get above average grades due to my five years of experience from MS+PHD from France although 10 years ago! Are there any hopes for ITA in the next couple of months as CRS will reduce at September end due to ageing ;)

1) For POF I need approx. 10L INR for which I have 2.5L in bank1, 4L in bank2, 2L invested in different funds (readily transferable). I can get fund statement on official letters easily. Now, I have 11.5L in Employee Provident Fund (well known financial institution for time deposits) accumulated during last four years and untouched. Regarding its liquidity Government of India mandates that after 60 days of resigning from an organization all funds can be transferred to a bank account. I can well manage with this as I will resign the moment I am sure about visa stamping. I know there is a trade-off since I do not have sufficient funds in bank accounts and EPF might not be acceptable to all. The EPF guy can stamp and certify the online account statements. What do you guys advise?

2) I can get the reference letter as required by OOPNP from the current employer with whom I have now approx. 5 years experience. It is nearly impossible to take a similar reference letter from previous employer from whom I only have an experience certificate mentioning my period of employment and position. I also have contract, all pay slips, and form 16 (proof of income tax paid). I am still trying it but what do you suggest if I eventually fail?

3) All those who were born before January 26th 1989 can use their high school certificate as a authentic and legitimate DOB certificate. Also, I have an affidavit for this. I was born in 1978 in Varanasi and there is no registration of birth done at that time. So getting a birth certificate from there is just out of question. What should I do?

I would highly appreciate some quick responses from all the senior members as these are the issues which seems to be obstacles in OOPNP roadmap. THX
