It is not must for everyone..some people get it some don't.
Beautiful people of the forum,
Looks like I’m in a tight situation between various immigration deadlines, and might have to choose between (a) abandoning my Canada application or (b) abandoning the remaining duration of my US h1-b visa. PPR might coincide with the dates of my international travel.
Like many of you, my application is “taking longer than usual to process”. Here are the dates:
AOR/Federal program application submitted: Jan 20, 2019
Indian passport expiry date: Jun 20, 2020 (not sure how relevant this is)
Medical date: Dec 20, 2018 (so I guess I need to land in Canada before Dec 20, 2019)
PPR was expected July 20, and according to CIC it was only supposed to take 5-10 working days to process. After seeing this forum it seems it takes longer, up to 1-2 months. I thought I was being smart and making travel plans with plenty of buffer
I have scheduled my US h1b-stamping in India on Oct 1, 2019 and will be traveling internationally between Sep 28 - Oct 13. I need my passport on me at this time, and I am assuming that the stamping goes smooth.
What are my options here? What should I do if I get PPR within the next 2 months? Send my passport to Canada and risk cancelling my travel? In that case I forfeit about $4000 in flight tickets, and won’t be able to re-enter the US again without h1b stamp. If I don’t, CIC may not process my application if I take longer than 30-60 days to honor PPR request (30 days original + 30 days of potential extension)
Should I ask for a PPR extension already? I know I haven’t received the golden email yet, but I also hear Ottawa takes a while to respond.
Cheers!

Looks like it's case processing agent... what's the difference tho?
RR for proof of fund.
Has joint the Elite Club today. This is what shows in my application:
Will just relax the trip with my friends in Halifax some days and forget abt this heartbreaking news for a while.
“Your application is taking us longer than usual to process.
About 20% of our applications are more complex to process. They take us longer due to things like how easily we can verify information, how well and how quickly you answer our requests and whether the application is complete.

Hi Rushi,
As you said you contacted Ottawa Visa Office, Could you please share the email id of that office ? Secondly, you said your application changed from Submitted to Updated and then it vanished, could you please elaborate on that ?
A lot of the times you may miss them completely as they appear for that one time on your home page and then if you go back, they have gone. Some people receive emails about these updates, I haven’t. I have only seen them and taken screenshots
It’s normal these days mate. The work load is may too much. You will get it eventually.. don’t worry. Important to carry on with your life and let the process do it’s thing
In order of priority, I would close the passport renewal, US visa since it’s work related, PR and finally my holiday.Beautiful people of the forum,

To each it’s own.. slowing down the PPR process before PPR is issued is a bad idea. So I wouldn’t do that.
Wait and evaluate.. for all you know, the PPR could come anytime. Once u receive it, ask for more time . Not beforehand
Hi, I never contacted the Ottawa office but they contacted me basis a web form. The email is - CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca
This is what they wrote, so maybe not the best idea to email them directly. Use the webform
Good day,
Your file is currently under review and requires additional verifications. As a result, the assessment period will be outside of our posted processing times.
Unfortunately at this time we are not able to determine when your application will be finalized, but our office will contact you as soon as all verifications are completed, or if any additional information or documents are required.
We appreciate your patience and ask that you keep correspondence with our office to a minimum.
Regards,

On the ghost update, over the previous 3 nights I saw the current status saying “submitted/ updated” and “application/profile updated” which eventually vanished and I never received any emails for these so called updates.
Many ways to read these updates but the biggest sign is that your file is not neglected but someone is looking at it and processing. Historically, people have got their PPR in due time post these ghost updates . 4-5 weeks maybe.. I have to wait and see.
@Wahegurujee can maybe explain this better
Hope I have answered your query.
Don’t worry and always be optimistic.. you are not alone and every person who gets his / her PPR is a good news as that means the backlog is clearing
GU is a strong indication that your file is being touched. People have received PPR without a single GU, status change or ADR. You will soon receive good news. Just hang in there.
No one can bro. Just be patient and you will get it soon enough. After the 6 months.. it can take anywhere from 7-12 months or in some very rare cases, more
