Thanks osidabdelkader, last couple of questions, when you received passports and visa back, was it delivered in your mailbox or does Canada post deliver to your door and request signature as per the prepaid shipping return label? Did you get an email from Canada post when your package was activated?
Yes it was a delivery that required signature.
To track it I used the tracking number in both Canada post and USPS, and if you set up a notification request. USPS should notify at every step of the process. They kept sending emails, including the time it was in the track out for delivery

dounia, you have a similar timeline as xris right? you should hopefully be receiving a mail from CIC soon.

And Xris, did they request the RPRF from you or did you pay it yourself?

My other question is, I chose NDVO as my visa office, but it looks like no matter what office you choose, they are processing all QSW cases filed from Canada and US at Ottawa. Could anyone correct me here?

Suryak86, I've had the same suspicion: I applied from the US and chose my home country's VO since it's faster than Ottawa's. However when I got my GCMS notes they said Primary office: CIO and Secondary Office: CPC-O.

They requested the RPRF from me. I didn't pay it at the beginning.

They asked me to pay for it. I chose this way so that I could know if they're working on my application. ;D

Xris, do you work in Quebec now? Because it can also be that they are working more on In canada applications because they are already working in Quebec.

Also, can everybody take a moment and fill in / update your information to this spread sheet. It will help everybody get an idea of processing timelines.
