Do u think Goodale provides the status accurately of our application? Are they reliable.
Good point, not accurate from my experience. More importantly, he cannot influence decision or speed the process, so what's the point mailing him?

Does anyone know if the PNP EE applications take more time than the FSW? I'm 196 days already and haven't heard from them since March. :(

I'm frustrated and anxious both at the same time. Can only hope for the best though
Dear Karthik

I have seen files processed less than 4 months from aor.. also have seen a lot of files crossing 6 months because of the application volume.. The average timeline for applications have become 6-8 months - especially when you call CIC call center they say so.. so do not worry if you have crossed 6 months

Also if you have crossed 6 months - i would suggest ordering gcms notes - something i learned the hard way - of not ordering after 6 months..

gcms notes would give you a detailed info on the application process and will help you proactively act on any hiccups if needed - such as review required or needs more docs or missing docs..

Hope for the best - we are all here - this forum feels like family for me now - especially going through all the stress involved

Good luck ;)

My AOR date is 26th Jan and I am just 3 days away from crossing the 6 months timeline.
I was wondering if I should wait for 3 more days and then email Ralph goodale about the status or can I do it right away?
I was told it is ideal to email them only after one crosses the 6 months timeline.
Kindly suggest.

Thanks!
i would suggest wait for six months and then email..

Also make sure you email to goodale@sasktel.net and not to
ralph.goodale@parl.gc.ca (no response)

Mr Goodale's office calls IRCC in person representing the candidate as an MP and will give you almost the similar details as given by CIC agents..
The only advantage I found was came to know medical expiration date as well as ircc gets an update on the candidates profile as an MP (Member of Parl) office tried contacting regarding info

Come to think of it.. Mr Goodale’s office cannot help anything more than this.. it’s legally not allowed as per privacy laws.
It’s nice to know where your application is being processed and also when the medical expires.. rest is just feel good factor
