FEBRUARY 2016 - OUTLAND SPOUSAL APPLICANTS

[ldzawa]

Hey Guys, we got our request for additional dosuments today!
They asked for
-Peruvian penal and judicial certificates
-U.S.A. Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) Certificate
-Copy of Birth Certificate

We had sent a copy and translation for his birthcertificate in the original package, but apparently that sometimes happens.
My question now, we were asked to just scan and email those dosuments to them.
Didn't you guys have to actually mail the originals?

Thankfully we already have everything except for the FBI Certificate which was sent out via first class mail today. Hoping to receive it in the next few days and then submit everything together by Monday the latest!

Was this request part of your AOR2?

Congrats to everyone receiving good news today!

Unique I hope yours shows up soon in your email!

AG317, that was very fast!! I also thought you had to send them by mail not email.

My permanent residence in ECAS added a new line today stating that they started processing my application on April 4th.

I also wanted to ask those who have received AOR2, have any of you started searching information about assessing and recognizing your profession's qualifications?

Was this request part of your AOR2?

Yes, I believe so. They document has a UCI and Application Number on the top!

I don't understand what you mean by assessing and recognizing your professions qualifications?

Hey Guys, I found this in another forum and thought i would post it here as well!

"Good Day Folks,

I am starting this thread just to bring more light between the OLD IN PROCESS and the NEW IN PROCESS on Ecas.


APPLICATION RECEIVED:

This status on Ecas used to appear when the VO was checking the application fees were paid, All sponsorship forms were dated and signed, all the supporting documents were present ( If not, they could request any missing document) at this stage they used to check the qualitative of your file. Usually the Officer who received people's files when they came fresh from CPC Ontario will do everything we just mentioned above and put a 3 months BFD on your file to be reviewed by another officer and placed it in a queue, Then send AOR2. some VO did not even send AOR2. After 3 months an officer will open your file again and begin to do some work, your ecas still showing APPLICTION RECEIVED. The first thing that officer will do is to work on Eligibility between the SPONSOR and PA. The officer will pay close attention on age differences, religious background if the relationship is ongoing, no red flag, or fake documentation, the officer will check if the quantitative and qualitative of docs you sent. If you happened to order your GCMS at this point you will see ELIGIBILITY: IN PROGRESS, and Ecas would displayed

We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000

Even if medicals were done at this point, lots of people's applications back then did not displayed Medical Received at this stage on Ecas. when the officer approved your Eligibility at this point, your Ecas would show IN PROCESS and if your were to order your GCMS Notes would then show ELIGIBILITY: PASS. It is a sign that there would not be an interview. the case was not over yet.

IN PROCESS: We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000
We started processing JON DOE'S Permanent Residence Application on 01.03.2000

At this point the officer will request SECURITY checks and CRIMINALITY checks to other government offices who are responsible to do so. at this point no matter how long your file would take it was not the VO's fault neither yours but CSIS. Just to add flesh to the bone, let's say you requested your GCMS 4 months after your application went IN PROCESS, you might see at any page pertaining to SECURITY/CRIMINALITY would have S.15 (1) or S.19 (1) on the right top corner. Sometimes CRIMINALITY Checks may come back quickly and the officer would updated your file and keep waiting for Security.Then your GCMS will show.

Eligibility: Pass
Criminality: Pass
Medicals : Pass

Sometimes they may hid Security Checks even if it is finished according to Subscription 15 (1) for international affaires and defense. If the RPRF is not paid and the officer did not want to extend your Medicals if they were expired, he/she will issue a request for those document, even PPR. Some people reported seeing on GCMS Notes

Eligibility: Pass
Criminality: Pass
Security : Pass
Medical : In progress or Pass

DECISION MADE:We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000
We started processing JON DOE'S Permanent Residence Application on 01.03.2000
Medical Results have been received
Decision has been made on your application and the office will contact you in writing about this decision

At this point when Ecas displayed Medical results have been received which was the 3rd line, any applicants used to know that their application were almost done.

Back then Decision made without re- medical, Medical request or PPR was a sign of rejection and a good number of people used to know that their applications were rejected until they received their decision made letters to be double sure. Things have changed so much and will keep changing.

The NEW IN PROCESS has replaced the old status called APPLICATION RECEIEVED if it says:

IN PROCESS: We have received JON DOE's Permanent Residence Application on 01.01.2000
Medical Results have been received

This way you are not off of the interview's hook yet, they just update your Ecas with those 2 lines they will only show the date they started processing your file when Eligibility passes and background checks have then begun. You will mostly likely see the third line after months and months when your file has matured for PPR and ready for a decision. Hopefully this helped

Warm Regards and good luck"

Hey ImABule,
AOR2 says:
"To obtain a license to practice a regulated occupation, you must go through an assessment and an acceptance of your education and professional qualifications by a regulatory body. This assessment will compare your training, education and experience to Canadian requirements. This assessment will also help determine whether further training and evaluation may be needed before you acquire a license to practice your occupation in Canada.

I want to start looking for information about this so when things are really close to the landing I have all papers ready.

My wife is currently unemployed and doesn't have a post secondary degree so I don't think any of this applies to our application.

Hi all,

Today 2nd line appeared regarding medical results received. File was already transferred to New delhi on 5th April.

This delay in displaying of 2nd line was because of my wife have to under go more test (2nd test finished on 21st March)

My understanding is that before medical results are linked with my application, file was transferred to new Delhi. So I can make sure that VO have all information with them.?

If they find anything missing or they are doubtful they will ask for re-med. Which is on other hand very common for NDVO applicants.
normally 2nd line appears after few days of file transfer. In your case looks like they have received all of your info. e-Medical is internet based system, so its accessible to the officer on the same day doctors upload the info.
