Express Entry - e-APR submitted in December 2016

[lifein360]

Do you have a choice which VO you want to deal with your application or is it mandatory that Ottawa handles all Inland applications?

Ottawa and Sydney. Although it seems PNP goes to Ottawa and CEC to Sydney

Does anyone have an idea how many days usually cic takes to issue PPR email after BOWP issuance ?

my "bk gnd chk" last changes on feb 23rd with my Bowp issued the following date . since then i haven't received any response or email from CIC on PR app.

Would you be able to answer the BOWP question I asked a short while ago? Thanks

Hi,

As per the following link you can only apply for BOWP if you are on a work permit that is due to expire within four months

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/work/permit/extend/permanent.asp


However, I have been coming across posts on canadavisa that people are applying for this straight after filling PR application to ensure completeness check and their application is okay!? Should I go ahead anyways and apply for this even if I have more than 4 months of validity on my PGWP?

Please advise, thanks.

People who are doing it (like me ) are the one who are already eligible for BOWP . in your case you are not (i guess) if u still have more than 4 months left on your current permit. even if you apply they will reject it anyways .
So no need
As your stream is PNP inland your BG CHk is estd. to chnge by the end of march 1st week , I would recommend you to wait another week and if no change then apply for GCMS notes . I hope it will help

cheers

I think we need to raise this question to CIC or either local MP. It is not fair for PNP inland applicants to wait for no reason when they have waited long to get PNP while other apps are getting processed quick. if it is taking more than 3 months to get medical pass then for sure it will take more than 6 months to get final decision. I have called the CIC so many times they gave me the same answer file not touch wait for 6 months. October Applicants are still waiting for PPR

I second that. It makes little sense to me delaying a particular streams unless I hear a better rationale. But escalating the matter through MP or any of those channels needs a collective effort.

Support, I see they really don't have much thought on how to handle PR process efficiently though they have improved some with web system.

Hi,

I got my eAOR on 14th December 2016. There is no update to my application until now. Can you help me with the number you called to inquire regarding your application?
I am a FSW outland(applied from US).

Thanks for the help.

Hey guys...
Just received an email as reply to a CSE mentioning that they are pleased to receive my documents and have forwarded them from Canada to responsible visa office!
Is this considered good news?
Aor dec-27
Bg NN to NS to NN on 13 Jan

Hope its good news!
LVOs usually process at longer times I guess

I wonder what 'collective effort' could have an impact. Should a bunch of people raise a CSE with the same question: "What the hell is going on with PNP-I?"
Would this bunch of people make any difference in the huge amount of people raising CSEs all the time? Or just officers saying "Weird, pretty sure I have already given the default meaningless answer to this same question few minutes ago..."

Buddy jump up and down!! Forget the BG status. Congratulations on your PPR. Please update the tracker.

Hi,

I had one question, I got the PPR this morning and was about to send passport today. But I just realized I have to travel to Denver for an official trip on 6th March and will be back on 9th. I know the timeline provided is 30 days, but is it better to send it now ? I will have to convince my Boss so Im a little worried as to what should I do.

Please pl advise

Thanks

Congrats!

Congrats!

well, i think there is no much difference as you have 30 days, but then if you can postpone you can win to birds, get passport and travel out and back.

Lets hear other opinion.

Thank you ! It's actually a sales conference at our head office i would love to postpone it if my boss agrees. If it's really preferred I could speak with him. I agree let's wait for more thoughts.
