Hi!
I applied for FSW-Outland. My AOR is 18th November and my file is located at the local Montreal office.
I raised a webform to get an update on my file and I got the following webform response:
" The application is still in process at IRCC local office in Montreal, Quebec.
The responsible office is currently verifying if your application meets the eligibility requirements under the immigration program for which you have applied,
you may be contacted via your account if additional information is needed.
The background verifications are in process.
The security background verification has not been initiated.
The criminal background verification is in process."
A few days later I called the office to check if there was anything that was holding back my file. The officer responded that my file was send to the Montreal office on December 3rd and was awaiting a review at the local office. There have been no updates since December 3rd and that there was no need to worry. She mentioned that files are usually sent for a review to the local offices and it's a normal process and that there was nothing exceptional with my case.
Let me know if:
1) Its normal that all files are given a second review
2) There has been no update since December 3rd. Is that normal?
3) I've ordered GCSM notes. Is there anything else that I can do to get more details about my file? I'm worried that something on my file may be lacking, which is causing a delay, and which the agent failed to clarify.
I'm being extra cautious here because if I don't get my PR within the next two months I set to loose my job. Will appreciate any help/advice/consolation lol
