I know how frustrating it can be. Check the list and see of someone close to your application date is still waiting.

Trust me, you will forget all this once you get PPR! It'll just vanish! Hang in there :) ! Its coming.

This is crazy guys. PNP outland and FSW applied in Jan 2017 got PPR request already (check out Jan AOR group) and PNP inland applied in NOV 2016 are still waiting. This is ridiculous. After wasting 5 year here in Canada working and paying taxes I feel like it would be good I have applied in India through NDVO I would have got the PPR now. I don't understand why there is 3months processing time delay with PNP inland apps as compare to PNP outland. PNP inlands should easy to process. Anyway good luck guys

It is not coming soon Raj. PNP inland applied in Dec 2016 still have to wait 2 more months atleast as per the current tread. I won't forget this; first wait 1 year to get PNP approved then wait more than 6 months to get PPR request. I wish I would have waited for the score to came down and applied direct as CEC applicant not through this ridiculous PNP route that give us more stress and pain.

My heart is with PNP-I guys, really. I have followed their timelines since the time of application. You guys have really been put through a lot of wait this year.
Hopefully they will keep their promise of clearing most applications within the 6 month mark.
Hang in there guys!

Thanks

Counterfoil = visa.

The expiry date of your visa will be mentioned in your myCIC account.
Thanks mate! The expiry is mentioned there.
When I googled counterfoil all the results that turned up were about TRV which confused me.

Thank you Raj for your support. Its our pleasure that you are still here even after your PPR. I am really worried coz my nomination is expiring next month and my work permit is expiring in less than 3 months. Now, I m thinking to go ahead with bridge extension coz you never know what will happen in near future. Atleast now I have AOR and I can get bridge extension done easy. What you guys think?

I understand what you are going through. My BG has not even changed to IP yet :( and as per current trend it takes almost 3-4 weeks to get PPR request after BG -IP2.

Completed all Landing formalities at 12 o'clock midnight.

I didn't expect that there will be another two families in the queue before me ... ;)

Anyway it was very smooth ... though I was having US Visa but I opted for flag polling ..... the Officers at both the ends were nice and helpful specially the Canadian officer.

I carried the file containing all my documents stated in PR application as few of my peers told me and also read in forums that they might ask to see several documents ... even CIC website also ask you to carry few documents.... but the Canadian officer only checked the PP, CoPR and existing WP ... no interview at all .....

Thanks to all of you to help me through out this journey ..... wish a happy PR processing to all of you ....
