I'm suggesting you guys to call immigration and ask for the list for Lawyers who are recognized by CIC. As you mentioned above most of the lawyers don't know the details of CEC application and also they are not updated with the changes. Be careful with choosing your lawyer.

Thank you! I hope so :)
 
I've been checking the November & December 2013 posts and I saw that most of the November applicants got PPRs and their status changed to DM. Some of the December applicants got PPRs & DMs as well. According to this we will be getting PPRs & DMs in December & January I guess. What do you think guys?

I also think so, We all were expecting that because of their new express entry, they may speed up the things to avoid the back log but it seems our assumption is wrong.
They will sure take their time even if our application doesnt need to verify further, they dont make decision on it and keep waiting to reach their timeline of declaring the decision.
Nothing we can do in this matter, just wait and watch.

Does any one has any idea ? how long does it take to get the passport back after submission?
Do they stamp on our passport or just provide a letter like work permit?
