how do i find out at which visa office my application is in ?
-You can know your Visa Office by sending an email to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca

This is the email format they require:

IMPORTANT: You must provide us with your application number in the subject line of your email and include in the body of your email the following information:

* Surname and Given name(s)
* Date of birth (YYYY-MM-DD)
* Unique Client Identifier (UCI) number / Client ID number
* Category of Immigration (CEC, Provincial Nominee, Family Class, Federal Skilled Worker, Temporary Resident
 
I want to ask did anyone call cic more than once before?i am curious do they mention that in our application or does it have any negative effect?

If you look at the email that they sent, they are asking us to be patient and keep the communication/followups to be minimal. Phone calls definitely get in to GCMS notes and officer will see that you have called. I am not sure if it has any negative effects.. once or twice a month to ask for status should be okay I feel.

I only want to know if eligibility has passed
 
Hey I checked the tracker.. someone with April aor from India had his case moved to cpc Ottawa, and the case was directly finalized there instead of moving to local visa office which is new Delhi visa office. He got ppr from there, but just needed to send his passport for stamping to local new Delhi visa office. Your case is likely to follow that flow too. It's better I feel because processing Ottawa might be faster than local visa offices. I feel so because cec files move fast and they get processed in Ottawa case office
We will see, some of us went from Sydney to Ottawa. Im 15th day from IP1.

Okay.. for me the flow seems to be different. May be because of being US applicant (considered as inland?)

Medicals pass -> You application is in progress, and next step is to conduct background check (changed after medical pass) -> We are processing your background check (changed today).

I am not sure what stage it is. I am also bit nervous because my supervisor is not in US at the moment (out on vacation to India) and calls happen during this stage. If they call, and if he is unreachable, I am not sure what would happen.

PCCs? Or lesser days?

Hey I saw only rejections based on (same old) PC's!
Hi @comfortablynumb,
I am not aware of May 2 rejections.
Could you be kind enough to explain more on this? Cheers dude! (I am under the assumption that you are a guy)..Hehehe:D
Did anyone get rejected from may candidates ?


@KiranK is right here. The number of days is very less(38 and 45) as compared to 60-70 . It means the applications are being processed at a very fast pace.

Yeah as May AORs are reporting very quick IP1 to NAs in most cases, so they have definitely sped up, let's just hope they speed up IP2 and PPRs as well.

they sent an email over

ok, do you know if they send emails in all instances. I raised a CSE on the 30th of May and my status changed recently to the additional documents you provided have been uploaded. I don't know if that is confirmation that my CSE has been done.

Hi @Sulay8961,
I won't be too worried about it because mine took about 8 working days to change back to NA and someone on this forum stated that his took about 11days.
One way you might know when it changes is that your PR status on your account might change from "submitted" to "Updated" and once you've checked it, the status changes back to submitted. That was what I noticed in my case.
Just chill and check your account regularly.:)

Thanks a million, appreciate. I am doing the regular checks and learning a lot from you lot and everywhere else. I am like a sponge now. My elder brother and a few friends are getting on the waggon soon. I want to make the process as seamlessly as possible when they come on. I guess all we can do is wait. Patience, after all, is a virtue.
