Hi, we are Inlanders, too, our case:
Aplication Received Dec. 08
Start Processing: January 2009
AIP: June 2009
I have my OWP, SIN, and Health Card, Im happy for having this, but.... the wait is killing me....
My ecas:
We received your application for permanent residence on Dec.2008.
We started processing your application on January 2009.
Medical results have been received.
A decision has been made and you will be contacted.
Since June I haven't heard anything from CIC, so I called last week to ask and the agent told me they are still doing background checkings, also I apply for FOSS, which is going to tell me exactly what is going on with my case.
There are differents background checks, the normal wich last from 90 to 120 days, or a depth one which is made from 180 days to 18 months. I believe in our case they are doing a depth one because after AIP, normally you get landed in 3 to 4 months and we still here, 5 months and counting, what are they checking I dont know right now but I will, best wishes to all of you. Please continue sharing Inlanders!
Wowo, so happy for you. It's nice when you hear something back from them. We submitted our application in November 2009, they started processing in December 2009. My ecas just sasy in process. I don't even know if they received my medical or not. It's been a while already and it still say in process and dthere are no more news. Hopefully soon though.
