Guys!

It has come to my attention that the PPR may come as an email or message on the MyCIC account... I've seen reports of both here in the forum.

So for you guys that got PPR from SPVO, was it via your MyCIC account or directly via email?

Thanks!
Email from SPVO.

Congrats, robsonmin! :D

By the way, folks... I've just received my GCMS notes. My file was apparently sent from Ottawa (Centralized Intake Office) to São Paulo early December 2016. I have Eligibility/Security as "Not started" and Criminality/Medicals as "Passed" (on the first pages).

1) To the ones who already got GCMS and PPR, can you please say how many notes (and days, in your case) I am from PPR right now? The latest one, from CIO on December 4th 2016, says: "REVIEW TYPE: Case Analyst APPLICATION: () REGULATION: PNP: FSW, 2016-11-10 I have verified this application under Section 11.2 of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act (IRPA) and make the following determination. RECOMMENDATION: ***Appears to meet requirements*** Ready to Finalize (...)".

2) I was nominated by a PNP (SK) stream and got into FSW/PNP. For the e-APR, I didn't send Schedule 4 since it wasn't asked on the system. However, there is a part on the GCMS notes (Incoming/Attachments) that shows the files transferred between/to/from CIO and São Paulo visa office. Everything there has "attachments: 1" and the status is "received", except for two items: "Kit, Application forms" and "Schedule 4 - Prov Nominees". For both ones, the status is "not started" and they have "attachments: 0". Does this mean that Schedule 4 or other documents will be requested? Even if my file is already with the local VO?

By the way, on EE system my BG is still equivalent to "Not needed at this time" ("not applicable"). It was never "in progress" (started as Not Started and then changed to Not Needed).

Thanks!

Argh.... This is not good!!! So you're in EE with PNP and you're still waiting from November :(

I thought that SPVO had picked up the pace.... maybe not! :(

Do you not have s16.1 or s15.1 on any corner in your notes? Maybe SPVO is waiting for your security to be done before moving on with your file...

Hey, thanks for the response!
I have 28 notes on it, the latest one (28th) was described above. The 26th one says "****Agent review **** R10 review police certificates r10 ok(...)".

I have on the top-right corner "s.16(1)(c)" for the page with last Payment details + "ESDC: 0" and the beginning of Associations category, plus the page with Associations ending + beginning for History. Is this a good thing?

Based on my latest notes, I wonder how many notes/weeks away I am from PPR now... :(

PPR

Guys, our dream finally came true! We received the golden email tonight, 9 PM Halifax time!

It's been a bumpy road, but finally we have reached the end of the line.

I hope more people here in this thread will get PPR soon!

Cheers!

Hi everyone! I'm wondering if any of you might be able to help me with a question regarding my medical exams. My status on the E-apr application has been "We are reviewing the results of your medical exams" for a while now. I'm starting to get nervous, wondering if perhaps our doctor forgot to ask us for any additional testing. My husband and I have both had access to our results and everything seems to be in order. Here's a list of the tests we went through:

- Urine (sample taken at the doctor's office and checked for diabetes on the spot)
- Chest X-rays
- Retrovírus, antibodies (HIV)
- Treponema pallidum (Sifillis)

I heard a few people talking about Hepatitis on this forum, but we actually never got tested for that.

Any thoughts? Do you all see any tests missing on our case? Appreciate any input here.

I believe your test is in order, I don't think the clinic would mess up your results. My medicals had passed in 2 weeks, but that was in October. According to the current trend some people have to wait up to 2 months before they have their medicals changed to passed.

Medicals are taking longer now, probably a reflection of the high number of ITAs.

I wouldn't worry about it, but if you want give you doctor a call and ask him if he's already submitted everything and if everything is OK.
