I recently got my P.R and I had frequented these forums a lot of times to get answers some of the common queries everyone has. I was a silent observer for most of the time so felt like sharing the fact that I got the P.R and if I could be of help through my information.

I had applied under the express entry in Oct 2015 and didnt really have any update on it , till a ghost update followed by a mail asking me to submit my passport. I did the same and got my C.O.P.R in April 2016. I didn't hire any consultant and used CIC website and these forums to help me with the process.

Thanks for the help and happy to share anything that could be of help to anyone.

Congratulations on your PR.

my question, is it normal that BG check changes various times? when shall it change to in progress? How long will it take for PPR to come.

kindly help

Hi I got a question. I mailed my passport with my photos today. But I forgot there were some old photos in my passport, which don't meet the PR photo specifications. So I mailed both the new correct ones and the old ones. Is it OK? Is it gonna delay the processing time? Thanks! !!

Actually what i wanted to ask was, is it normal that BG ckeck takes some much time. I do not know if mine has even started or not. I have already paid the RPRF.
 
Its quite normal for it to stay so till the end. In my case, It showed BG in process till the end, then finally everything changed to approved.

and the BG status changing is also normal .

The RPRF fees you are talking of has no bearing on the BG status , if you hadn't paid it , the stage where they need to ask for it , they would send in a request.(thus some extra delay).

What you are experiencing is perfectly normal, given the info you provided.
 
MY BACKGROUND CHECK CHANGED TO IN PROGRESS TODAY. I HAVE NOT SUBMITTED RPRF WITH MY E-APR. WHAT CAN IT BE? BACKGROUND IN PROGRESS WITHOUT ANY RPRF SUBMISSION REQUEST?

Hi
Got invitation on Dec 13, 2015, Submitted all my documents Police clearance, Paid my fees and everything. 2 weeks before CIC send email regarding my spouse, they need some more proof of our relations, so I submitted on May 18, 2016.
On June 13, 2016 its been 6 Months, so what should I do now? Should I call CIC or wait for few more days?
Any suggestion please.
thanks

Hi All,

Can you please suggest, which VO is my application likely to go?
and I didn't pay RPRF upfront, if I pay when CIC request, does that delay the process? Or any other way to pay it now?

Also, I've read through the forums about FBI PCC. I have already provided PCC for UK and for India (applied from Indian Embassy in UK).
Do we still need FBI PCC separately?


ITA - 6 Apr
AOR - 5 Jun
Meds - Upfront

Residing in UK since 1 year
Nationality - India

Aditya
 
Hi everyone,

I got my E-AOR on May 19th, no changes in my medical report yet, it's been 3 weeks .
What i've seen is it clears within a week for most of the people.

Does anyone have had same issue?

I got my ITA on March and medicals were done in Feb.

Check my signature for my timeline. It happened also to a few members here.

Nothing to worry about.
