Hey all,, here comes the end of long frustration,, here's my application details... Application Received: April 25, 2014 , Aor received: June 2, 2014, i sent all the documents required for cec with the application so did not receive any documenta requests.... So here the wait begins, i started expecting medicals since february 2015, nothing for the months March, April, May, June, July 2015,, called the call centre on june 10,2015,,and was told that my file got transfered to ottawa on june18, so my 13 months of processing time starts from there,, called again on july 7, the call centre lady was nice, she sent message to VO about the delay and told me to call back, called back on july 18, the call centre agent wasn't helpful at all, he asked me the date when i called last so he was like call back after 1 month, i explained him my last conversation so he opened my case, and there was a reply from VO that my file will br finalized before september 10, that was a temporary relief for me, then i decided to do upfront medical, i got appointment on july 30, 2015 at kitchener ( dr. Daniel garrett ) did my upfront medical, Doctor uploaded my results on August 2,2015 as there was a long weekend,, btw i highly recommend this doctor if you are looking to do your medical, really nice guy, and charges are 140 doctor's fees, 40 for xray and 15 for blood check (195 in total),, since June2014 to August 7,2015 i must have checked my online application status more than 200 times,, on August 8, i got call from my lawyer that he received an email from cic but there's no attachment to it, but he was sure that format of the email was the same as medical request, so i checked my online application status and there were two more lines added that they started processing my file on june2, 2015, and they sent me medical request on August 7, 2015 ( finally a big relief ), i called the doctor aa they sent me new umi for medical, he right away emailed cic and informed them about my upfront medical,, Yesterday August 11, 2015 got an email for RPRF , paid right away and my lawyer emailed it same day,, Now waiting for PPR, hopefully it arrives soon , i didn't apply for any gsms notes so i don't know the exact reason of this delay, so guys If you haven't heard from cic so far, hang in there You all will hear good news soon, Don't worry too much, Focus on ur present and future plans, hope the best for all of Ya,, will update my application information once i get an email,, Thank youall of you and Admin/owner of this website for providing such a wonderful forum......
