Hi everyone,

I am a 2011 applicant (july) and I have been waiting for almost 17 months now. Any updates from 2011 applicants? Any idea when we will get our PPR? Any suggestion/opinion is appreciated.

All the best,

Hi,
I got an email last week from Ottawa stating that 80% of the QSW files transferred from Buffalo will be finalized by the end of Feb 2013.
I hope this helps

I believe they should be on the 9 months as stated in their website. Some applied this year and already got their PR.
You can drop a line (email) and ask them. They usually reply to emails within 24 hours.

I wrote an email to ottawa today, and just got a reply now. They are fast , and working late into the night! Opinions and comments are welcome :) thanks


Dear Sir/Madam,

Your phone numbers and address were updated. Please note that your spouse’s contact information remains unchanged; if you would like their information updated as well, please make a request to this office.

Your file was transferred to this office following the closure of Buffalo. We ask for your understanding that we are now working through a large number of files which have been transferred at the same time.

Due to the high volume of correspondence received, we are unable to provide status update. The officer responsible for your file will contact you if any action is required from you.

A passport request will be made by the officer responsible for your file at a later date if your application is approved.

Regards,

Thanks Mcgill_engr, it brings lot of hope :)

@speednab, based on the timelines, I think those of us who received their medicals in Nov 2011 should see PPRs in Jan or early Feb.

What do you think?
