After now more than 8 months since AOR and nearly 5 months sitting in RR for POF, I just called up CIC again.
First I would like to say that the agent who answered the call was very kind and helpful. I don't know what has happened in the past few months, but I get the feeling that CIC agents have become increasingly friendly and helpful. Maybe it's just that my application has been sitting there for longer and longer every time I call and that they are empathetic
The agent was able to verify that my application was still in RR for POF and that although CIC had received the additional documents that I provided proactively, nobody had looked at them yet.
Additionally, he mentioned that he had set a reminder for a case officer to review my file.
Does anyone know how effective these reminders really are? I am keeping my expectations and hope to the lowest level...
