My background check status is still "Not Started".
Tried to upload my screenshot here but it said "Sorry, you are not allowed to post links".
Maybe it's because I am new.
Anyone who wants to see the image could probably help me out.

Well there should not be any doubt about Amit case. I have seen the screen shot in which he was clearly called for passport. I hope we are not too far as well. Just take it as positive sign of fast processing. Next week will be important.
 
Ughhhh! I shouldn't be reading this thread, I belong in October 2014 CEC. It's so unfortunate that CIC CAN move things along this quickly but for us in the past , we have to continue waiting 12 to 14 months *bawls*

On a happier note, good luck to you all!! It's good that they have improved the process. Not long from now you guys will be landed! ;D see you when I land in 2016! ::)
 
Hello Guys!
I am glad I found this thread, pretty useful updates and information. I have applied PR under Express Entry, submitted application on March 9th, received AOR on March 10th. My current closed work permit is expiring April 16th. I am planning to apply for BOWP via mail. I am not sure if AOR is sufficient for getting the BOWP, since CIC considered my application under FSWP even though I was eligible under both CEC and FSWP. I know AOR is enough for CEC but is it same for FSWP as well?

Hello Guys,
I had received province nomination from Nova Scotia recently which increased my points to 934 Embarrassed , and now i am waiting for invitation from express entry pool. I have few questions for all of you guys, and it will be helpful for me if you give answers, guideline and instruction for some of those questions.

Do you know when next draw is scheduled?

Can you guys please suggest me what are the steps after getting ITA?

What are the supporting documents that are required to apply?

Do I need to do medical examination during application submission or i can do it later?

how I will pay fees online via credit card?
Can i use virtual credit card instead of regular credit card for payment?
Is there any way to pay fees through demand draft or bank to bank transfer?
Can I upload supporting documents before payment or after payment?

Thank you in advance for giving your valuable time.

1. No recent news about the next draw.
2. After getting ITA, you need to submit your application for PR. Before that, you should have all your documents and credit card ready.
3. Supporting documents include a copy of your passport, proof of your education, proof of your employment records, proof of means of financial support, digital photo, proof of medical exam, police certificates, proof of your nomination. And it also includes passport, proof of education, digital photo, proof of medical exam, police certificates and marriage certificate for your spouse (if applicable).
4. You need to do the up-front medical exam before you submit application.
5. Debit card and credit card are both ok. Not sure about demand draft or bank transfer.
6. You must upload documents before payment.

Does anyone send an official receipt of payment for processing fee & RPRF to CIC?

I have applied under cec and paid the fee on 23 FEB 2015, however I checked the receipt of payment today.
You could see this sentence in the bottom of the receipt, "Please print two copies of this receipt, send one to Citizenship and Immigration Canada and keep one for your records."

Did anyone send it?
