[MexicaTica]

Hey there!. For me, they requested information about what i have been doing in Canada since the day i arrived. Ie.. my work history from exacrly the date i arrived in canada until now.., my volunteer history from the date i arrived until now etc. Also just to mention, i applied for aan open work permit together with my application. so maybe that is why?. How many of us applied for open work permits??.

I applied for an open work permit but have yet to receive a request for additional information...

Background

Security screening requests for all in-Canada permanent resident applications are submitted by CPC Vegreville, on receipt of the initial application, via an automated link with our security screening partners. When files are transferred to CIC offices for processing, the CIC becomes responsible for keeping the security clearance updated and does this by submitting renewal requests and client history update forms to CPC Vegreville for transmission via this automated link.

In October, 2007, new data requirements for security clearance requests came into effect and our partners have advised CIC and CBSA offices that these data requirements will be strictly enforced. These revised instructions were put in place to improve client service and turn-around times.

As of this date, all security screening requests received that do not meet the full data criteria pre-established for each client will be rejected automatically and returned to the case processing centre. The main changes to the security screening data requirements are:

* No gaps in time will be accepted; and ---- Any of you who missed any duration may have received Update form
* Place of birth is now a mandatory requirement.



General Policy

CPC Vegreville can submit CSIS electronic requests only for files that were initially created using the CPC system in Vegreville. Also, once a dependant is added or deleted in FOSS by the CIC office, Vegreville no longer has access to the file in the CPC system and therefore, is unable to process CSIS requests.

CIC offices are responsible for ensuring that complete data requirements are collected from clients prior to submitting CSIS security screening requests to CPC Vegreville. All CSIS requests that are received incomplete will be returned by CPC Vegreville to the responsible CIC office for follow up.

Procedures

The Client History Update Information form below contains all the information clients are required to submit in order for CIC to process a security screening request. CIC offices must send clients this form and ensure that it is properly filled out with no gaps in time. Once forms are received, properly filled out, the form is faxed to CPC Vegreville as per current procedure.

CPC Vegreville will review Client History Update forms to ensure they are properly filled out. Forms missing any of the mandatory information required will be returned to the CIC office responsible to ensure follow up with the client. Forms that are properly filled out will be submitted to CSIS electronically for security screening.

Mandatory information consists of the following:

* Applicant must be 18 years of age or older
* Legal name (surname(s) and given name(s))
* Date of birth
* Country of birth
* Place of birth
* FOSS sex code

the thing is ppl are getting that update request only if they applied starting january 2010.
and other thing: in the letter they are asking for "update" for the period of time which starts after we arrived/applied. so its not the issue that we made some gaps filling the form.

 

[mimi23]

mine have nothing to with the gaps in my application form filled they just wanted to know what i have been doing since after my appl was sent not some othe stuff since back then . they wanted to know if my adr is still the same, where iam studying , work i mean few stuff since isent my appl . i tried to call the call centre the lady told me that is normal some io ask for the update so that if they want to make decion everything is in order but some immigration officer dnt ask for that so its normal or not so no need of getting an heart attack guys

 

[adzees]

Oh well i applied in the beginning of January 2010 as well, but i haven't received any request for the update. May be because i am in Canada since 2003, and i have applied for renewal of study permit and work permit number of times since then.

How is everyone holding up?

I think it is going to drive me insane until I know that my application is 'in process'.
I need to send them my FBI clearance as soon as it shows up. Plus I just want to know that it is opened up and on my way to a visa.

Tomorrow will be 2 months since sending it off. I think looking at other applicants, I have about 2 more weeks to wait. Oh dear God help me be patient. Lol.

Hey, we applied December 2009, (almost 2010) After getting no respose for the longest time we finally yesterday got a phonecall from immigration saying that everything was going through, they noticed a change of address and just wanted to verify that the new address was the right one YAY! It took some explaining though as I am at the moment in the UK. I have been in Canada permanently since April 2009, finally got our paperwork sorted and sent December 2009. I knew that it was a risk to leave during an inland application, however the fact that my father got diagnosed with Cancer in august, I felt that the risk is worth it. Typical eh, that nothing happens for ages then it all happens at once. Whatever stage you are at, Goodluck !!!!!!

 

[Love_Young]

I made a table chart for all the people have posted about applying inland for this year.
Please let me know if I need to correct anything.

Later I will probably put them in order of date received but I am bit too lazy right now. Lol.
I hope that this is still satisfactory though. Btw sorry it is so tiny. I had no idea until I pasted it in here. I will have to make another later.

Awww. Thanks Love-young and Asta. ..
I have a question. has any of you decided what you will do when you receive your OWP if you have applied for them?. Do you have any experience in any field?. college education etc?
i think for me i want to go back to school when i receive my PR card. Not too sure what i wanna do once i receive my oWP. i just applied for it because i want the flexibility of being able to work if i wanted to and prob save some money and pay some bills
