Does anyone knows the exact format of the photos for the ppr?
(process is slow enough, I'd like to be prepared!)


(Btw, anyone else checking the site several times a day? I managed to get down to 3 or 4.... not much point in it, but who knows when stuff changes...)

Dear Raj , lazybone and other senior members


I received my notes today. It say R. 10, 11.2 and criminality passed. If they say criminality passed this means my application has been transferred or even the CIO Ottawa can do that. My paper file transfer history says Transferred and the receiving office is New Delhi. Can I conclude that the file is been transferred to NDVO but it also states Workload (re)-distribution.
NOw that Criminality is been passed can I say that only security is pending.
My Selection EE ECON has not started ( can you please help me with the meaning of the same).
In correspondence section it says document transferred.
Application Assignment due date is 13.01.2017
and Due date for recalculation (assessment) date is 03.02.2016.
The due date for security is 15.11.2017 (is it a cause of concern as it is toooooo far.
Also my understanding is that my file was sent to NDVO but it has been returned due to over work load. Can it happen?
Please help me with the above. I feel things are on right track but obviously you know better and can help me with this.
Thanks and regards
Well you have to look for pointers on first 1-2 pages where they tell which things are passed and which ones are pending ?

Due to workload distribution, your file has been sent to NDVO.

Points re-calculation simply means that your eligibility will be re-calculated at NDVO again before proceeding to security checks.

Btw... Whats your timeline including your background check status change dates ?

My timeline is in my signatures. My BG is NN since starting.

Can I conclude that my file has bee transferred. The pointers say medical and criminality is passed. Last page says I meet the requirements of R10 and 11.2.
At which stage criminality is passed. LVO or CIO

Dear all:

Questions for Personal Activities:

(1) I graduated March 2010. Enrolled at review school on May 2010. There is a gap dated April 2010. During that time I self-review or technically I am waiting for the May 2010 Review.
(a) What will i put, Educational Activity or Unemployed?
(b) If Educational Activity, I don't have any supporting documents to present since this is just self review. Do I have to present anything?

(2) From May 2010 to October 2010, I took the Board Review. Do i need supporting documents? If yes, what document?

(3) From January 2013 onwards, I became a member Institute of Internal Auditors and ISACA. Do i need to declare this? Do i need to present documents? What documents?


Questions For Address History:

(1)What supporting documents do we need to present?

(2) What if I could no longer remember the exact date we started living in that address? What is the remedy?

Thank you so much.

hey buddy you can PM hereon but i wanted to share this for the benefit of others who need help.......before i do...i wanted to let you know im no senior man...im just like you...last post on this thread though...answering serially for your benefit...

notes are pretty easy to figure out....

all you need to know is-

1. VO (page 1)
2. Assessments/due date (page 2)
3. Last few pages containing r10, a11,2, etc...officers notes etc..
4. admissibilities (middle of our notes)


guess you have read up on everything....answering specifically to your questions

-activities will let you know exact date of file transfer...page 1 will give you vo so you would know IF there is a file transfer...

-EE Econ means express entry economic class...some VO's (like NDVO) update eligibility right at the very end(during officer review or before)...around that time....

-dont worry about worload redistribution......is common my friend..

-correspondence- it will say incoming/outgoing...incoming is the stuff you sent to them...outgoing is what they sent to you

-due date is called BFDs or bring forward dates...thats when they review your app and send for any assessments/doc requests/etc...dont get freaked out by this date because sometimes it is way off the processing timelines...the reason why it is off is coz the officer who processes your file at the time estimates time needed to get the job done given the pressures of the VO (it is usually done much earlier than than the VO)

the VO would determine processing speed...figure that out and you'd well on your way

Best wishes my friend! :)

Yes it is like this. Med done, eligibility done (11.2), criminality done, security not started.
My one question was if criminality is done than is it confirm that the file has been transferred.

Thank you so much. I have PM you.Please check.

That's a bummer. Are you sure you provided the Express Entry profile number tied to your PR application (and not a profile number of an expired EE profile)?
