INLAND APPLICATIONS 2015

Here's a link to the old version of the manual. The flowchart is on page 44.

Thanks, Ponga! I did have that open already .

I am surprised they would remove it from the manual. Maybe they have a poster-sized version of it in the CPC's.

Hey question for you (more of an opinion): While we are on the topic of AIP's. I had a chat with my MP last week, and they called into CIC to complain about a really late ATIP request. While the communications officer was chatting with the clerks at CIC, she requested general case information for me (so she could update me). They mentioned that they are just working on my eligibility to sponsor, and my wife's application was waiting on security and criminality checks.

I am getting conflicting messages here. ECAS does state Sponsor Application is in progress, PR application is application received. myCIC states Medical passed (about a month ago), BG checks in progress, and that's it.

So, if I go by what my MP's office said, and I use the flowchart, we should be passed step 1, and almost finished step 2. If I go by ECAS, we haven't even started yet...

What's your opinion here? What should I believe?

Ug...don't get me started on why CIC makes changes that seem to make no sense...like changing the Inland Guide to now state (as of September 2014) that applicants must have legal status to apply. They do NOT, under the Inland Public Policy from 2005 that's still in place.

Unless they've changed the way an Inland applicant is processed, I'd say that your myCIC indicates that she has passed AIP stage, since BG checks are in progress. This is part of the admissibility assessment, for stage 2.

Yeah, unfortunately I think they have made too much paperwork, and they do not have something like elasticsearch...

This is what everything is pointing to -- that they are in stage 2. BG check went to in progress in june or july (I don't recall which). Timed with the Medical being accepted about a month ago, and a PCC request in one of the document request waves on Aug 10. It all screamed stage 2 to me as well. It's just curious that neither system seems to indicate SA.

Anyway, thanks for the opinion!

Medical isn't really needed until stage 2 (post AIP) since it's part of the admissibility check for the applicant.

My husband didn't get AIP yet, I got SA yesterday..will he get AIP soon?

How did you complain and requested GCMS notes? I don't even know what they are...

There are a couple ways to complain. For us, we (I) used a sledge hammer to kill a fly. GCMS notes are the case notes that visa officers record on your file. You can order them: http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/department/atip/requests-personal.asp .

Haha! thank you

I also noticed in my SA that it was saying that we should pay RPRF as soon as possible to avoid delays. Did you guys get that too? I hope it's a hint or someting that DM is in the horizon.
