I agree with you..it is just a matter of time that your file is opened by the officer and it gets cleared in no time... what we should pray is let our file be next;)
Trust me once the file is open , the golden mail arrives soon....
My case was similar.... called up cic agent on 9th August ..... he said file is open for review and on 16 th August I got the most awaited mail...

I just got my 2nd GCMS notes which I ordered on the 18th of July.
The note was generated on the 22nd of July which is when my application turned 6 months.

From the notes Eligibility and Security has not started and info sharing is still in progress.

Please what happens in info sharing. The partner sent to is USA. I am so worried why it has been going on for 6 months and counting.
Similar is the caae with my husband. My info sharing has completed but my husbands been going on and counting continues :(
Your AOR and visa office?

I did (detailed like in our conversation).

I thought it was my work permit expired 08.31.2018, but my company kept my position (from 09.01.2018) until 90 days passed (terminated me on 11.30.2018). I applied for work permit extension without ITA on 08.18, and my company couldn’t let me continue to work but just give me an unpaid leave...after I got ITA on 12.19.2018, my letter of employment given by HR couldn’t customize to add this unpaid leave infor, which means that they mentioned my full time period ended on 11.30.2018, and this may confuse the officer. But I only put ending date in 08.2018 in Application’s Work History, And did separate this unpaid leave from work exp. in Personal Activities too. My HR said I could write a self-explanation letter to whom may concern. That’s what I did when I submitted the application...and then I got “not met” news, so the only concern I could think of is this.

I submitted two new LOEs on July 29 and was acknowledged receiving on August 7 before I got my first notes, which I had never thought it could come. Then, I realize it isn’t like my thought, since the comments in the notes show everything looks good and no thing is marked as review required (this is far before I submitted LOE)...until now, I still don’t know why they cancelled my “recommended pass”...

Based on the first notes, I don’t think my application has any part should be questioned even without the two new LOEs. I assume the only thing these two do is pushing the level 3 officer to review my application comprehensively.

Sorry for the long writing.

GL to u!!
So happy for u .. heartiest congratulations..

Hi all, I thought I'd update you all on my fortnightly call to CIC yesterday.

Called around 6:20pm IST and after a 20min wait time, got connected to an agent.

Post verification, he immediately put me on hold for about 15 mins in total again, only coming back once in between to say that he needa more time to access my files?!

Finally, when we spoke, I asked him the 3 golden question. Status on my Eligibility, Criminality and B/G.

My eligibility is still at recommended pass. Criminality is pass, here the agent specifically mentioned about my India as well as UK PCC, so i was to understand that he was reading from my GCMS notes made by the analysts / VO, whatever they are called.
My B/G has still nopt begun.

When I asked him to send a reminder to the processing office, he told me that at this moment it is not possible. He told me that a reminder which was sent to the CPC Ottawa on the 12th of July was still in active mode. Then, he went to explain that the 15 min hold he put me at the beginning of our call was to try and send a reminder to the processing centre by default.. but the system at his end wouldn't allow him to. Which is when he investigated my GCMS notes and figured that my file is under review/open and reminders can only be sent on inactive files.

I don't know how this helps everyone, but I have learnt something new -
1. The reminders cannot be sent all the time.
2. Some files could be in queue to be reviewed and the status could be the same for months until one fine day, all the steps are completed in a blink and PPR follows after :)

Do not be disheartened and worry! Keep yourself busy.. and stay positive!

Thanku dear friend for sharing .. last week on Thursday I too called them about my application..around 6 pm IST and after 17 mins wait got thru an agent .. he. Said my eligibility in progress. Criminality passed and security not yet initiated. I asked him to send reminder. He said he cannot send one as file in queue for review. He didn’t told me anything new except that Ottawa office is going slow due to holidays and are working hard .. I said how much more time my file will take according to his experience.. he said he is optimistic and it can take 1 week to maximum or 1 month . It was disheartening but yeah I still wake with hope to see golden mail ... and yes 1 positive thing I do is don’t check my account but eye mail daily
