I found some interesting info about the proceeds of VOs, people who are bound to get a request for additional documents, go through this and do yourselves a favour of killing the wait times
applicants who got PER and have been waiting a month or two for MR and need FBI clearance, it is good idea to initiate your application for it
Here are found the Old interesting about the due date = Bring Forward Date
I think many will be interested. All About BF'D: -Only for some of us WHO did not know... BF'D is an acronym for "Bring Forward Date" in the Canadian PR processing system. Usually our file moves from BF'D to BF'D, as it is the day / date next earmarked by our VO to check our file. This Actually Serves to eliminate Unnecessary clogging of the system ... That if there is nothing to add Further in A Particular file, the VO moves to another Case file to work on, rather than holding Onto the Same One. What happens on A BF 'D In simple terms it is the date the file That Will be Looked at [again], Assessed, reviewed by your Case Officer handling at the CHC. S / he will check if anything is lacking, any further queries to be made [to you], any documents to be asked or if any decisive action is to be made / taken. Basically it Serves as A 'Reminder Tool' to the Case Officer & processing That your file is not 'Forgotten'. Now, if the VO observes That is something Lacking [That Which WAS Asked for], S / he Probably Will Attempt to contact you on this BF'D day and mark another BF'D on your file. This depends on the subject of check [the all time phrase 'Case-to-Case' basis]. Sometimes, if the check report warrants, the VO might not give you another opportunity and take a decisive action. Note: The Situation is no Fluid & One really CAN Provide A sanguine Comment on it. Will the file be 'only' Looked at A BF'D No. If something like reports, results, documents etc. [Eg. background / security checks] comes to the CHC in between, your file gets opened and assessed. However, if nothing is received in between, you get another BF'D. Note once again: If They are waiting for something and it comes as Expected then the file to be processed Continues Further, if not then the next file Will be reviewed on the BFD 'only'. An Example Every time we Get A letter / Email from the CHC -it carries a 'time limit' to submit something, right? Say 45 days, 60 days or 90 days ... the ending day of that time limit is our next BF'D. As an example, if the CHC sent you a medical request [alongwith the forms] on 02 Jan 2010; and it carries a 60 day's deadline -it means your file has been marked with the next BF'D of 01 Mar 2010. HOWEVER, if your results are Medical Received before the BF'D [01 Mar 2010], say on 05 Feb 2010 -your file will be further processed on that day itself [05 Feb 2010]. If the med results did not come by earlier, then it will be opened on 01 Mar 2010 -The BF'D day. How many we BF'Ds Get Some BF'Ds are 'Routine', as exampled above. Then there are some which is either case generated or because of us. By 'case generated' I mean, [eg.] If one's Security Report is pending from an external agency -the VO gives a BF'D & waits. If the report comes in time, action is taken. If it does not, one gets another BF'D. And the Situation Continues ... By 'Because of us' * I mean if the VO Asked HAD A document for us [or A Couple of Them]. It is wise that we proceed to submit the document / s asap. Reason? The case moves faster [read: it'll open before the BF'D]. If we do not, S / he try to May contact us on the day BF'D & BF'D another log on Our file [result: Delay / S]. Delays Due to BF'Ds As Stated above, except the ' routine 'ones, other BF'Ds do delay our process. At the least [best scenario] each BF'D would be a month apart. Some might be more. The ideal action on our part is to submit anything that has been asked for asap. That would negate a BF'D. However, there can be times that something we just might not be able to send asap. In Case That we 'must' send it by the 'Deadline' -that'd Avoid another BF'D, Will not it? * Many Consultants [so Called agents] erroneously Advise us OTHERWISE. Stating, "Oh you got the meds, do not worry you have time till 60 days to do it". That's a 'bull'. I'd advise -do it asap, if the speed of your case process matters to you.
