The final piece of the puzzle was received today. PR card in the morning mail. I officially can stop looking for something, anything from CIC for a while to come yet. Good luck to the rest of you who are still waiting, it will happen soon!

Congrats Alurra71 on getting your PR card today. I have updated your status.

hi everyone, I just discovered this forum! Great place for everyone, I wished I know this place before my application!

I have one question.. I got my ecas status changed to Decision Made today and I wonder, will I need to prepare a copy of my passport? I am from a visa- exempted country.

You are inland. You would bring your passport with you to the landing interview.

I submitted my application in July 2012... At the end of September 2013 I received a denial letter stating that they had tried to contact me to get my medical done and that my timeline to do so had passed.

I hadn't received anything from CIC and was shocked by the letter, to say the least... Long story short, I had tons of proof that the mistake was on their end and my MP was able to get my case reopened a month and a half later.

I got my medical done in November and around the end of December/early January they updated my file as having received my medical results.

Does anyone have any idea how long it takes for them to finish processing my application after receiving my medical results? This whole thing has already set me back by almost 6 months (I was supposed to get PR status in September).
I have the same question....I`m almost in the same boat. I checked my email an hour ago and I find a letter from CIC. I must redo my medicals and my son too...he lives back home. I`m so mad...so furious... I can`t stop crying.. like a little girl...I haven`t seen my son for almost 3 years and now....waiting maybe 6 more months. I received DM on Oct 2013 and I called CIC so many times....why they didn't tell me earlier...I knew that my medicals expired after 1 year...and I asked them answer was..keep calm....the Etobicoke office will contact with you....

If you haven't, it's about time to call them (if not daily) weekly to check the progress.
before we got out landing interview, we got a letter (sent to our consultant) for us to provide extra information so that they can give an extension of medial result.
(deadline of reply was the next day from the day we got that letter) So I faxed the info back right away.
They also mentioned that they failed to contact us via phone before but NONE of us got any phone call from them. no missed call with their number...
So be pro-active in case they try to "contact" you.
yvr1234, may you tell me, please, can I extend the medical results and how? Thank you!
 
You don't extend your medical results. That is up to your VO to decide if they want to do or not. You won't have a say in the matter. If they decide to extend them, you won't know about it. You will however be asked to redo the medical if they do not extend.

Alurra71 is right. They contacted us to extend it. We didn't initiate the extension.
 
Thank you yvr1234 and Alurra71! I gonna book an appointment for my medical examination tomorrow... my son, too. I don`t have other choice :(
 
My medical expired before I got AIP but in the email they just said I needed my fingerprints done. Pretty wierd they never told me to get new ones right? I am hoping they extended mine and didn't tell me!!

It would be cruel if they told me in 6 months that I need new ones.... :(
 
Hey Screech,

Finally my PR card arrived today after 66 days wait time....you could update it if you like..
Glad the whole waiting game is over....

The clock restarts on the reopening of your file. So look at the timeline on the CIC website for the office processing your application and project forward from the date your file was reopened.
Actually, I got my DM yesterday afternoon. I had talked to them last week and they told me that it probably wouldn't be until July.... I contacted my MP Thursday afternoon and they called for me and were told that I should hear from them within a couple of months... And then BAM! I got an email yesterday and now I'm just waiting for my appointment to be made to make it official.

They use an electronic signature. You don't have to sign and scan the application.
