Hi everyone,

I received a letter from CIC = Update on IRCC processing capacity informing the removal of Timeline bar. It has gotten me super stressed that the application will not be processed in time. Did anyone else get this update?

Current Country of Residence: India (Mumbai)
Application Type: FSW
AOR: 28th Jan, 2021
MEP: 11th Feb, 2021
Biometrics: 2nd March, 2021
Estimated Time: 28th July, 2021 (Before the timeline bar disappeared).

I also received this

(La version française suit le texte anglais) Update on IRCC processing capacity for your Economic Class – Provincial/Territorial Nominees (EE) application. If you are a representative, please share this important information with your clients. Dear client, Thank you for your interest in Canada. We are looking forward to having you here. Due to the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), we’re experiencing longer than usual processing delays. Rest assured, we are still actively processing your Economic Class – Provincial/Territorial Nominees (EE) application, but it will take longer than usual to get back to you. This also means that we are unable to provide accurate processing times on individual applications at this time. As a result, we have removed the progress bar in the online account of Economic Class – Provincial/Territorial Nominees (EE) clients. You can still get the most current information about the status of your Economic Class – Provincial/Territorial Nominees (EE) application by checking the ‘Details about application status’ section in your online account. In order to provide you with the most up-to-date information about our current processing capacity, we are posting weekly updates on expected processing delays by type of application. Keep us informed of your situation While you wait, please contact us to let us know of any changes in your application, such as a change to your situation or contact information. Important information about Canada’s travel restrictions due to COVID-19 To protect Canadians from COVID-19, travel restrictions are in place for individuals travelling to Canada. Even when your application is complete, you may not be able to travel to Canada right away. As the COVID-19 situation changes, we regularly update our website. Visit the coronavirus disease page on the IRCC website to find the latest information before you make travel plans, and again before departing for Canada, to avoid being denied boarding or entry in Canada. We are sorry to keep you waiting and thank you for your patience, Sincerely, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada

wow.. what is your VO?

DId not enquire about the Visa Office.
I was purely calling to know more about the breakdown of Background check and eligibility.

I read that you were planning to call IRCC. Could you get through and get adequate information?

Greetings,
Got off the call with IRCC yesterday and my status is as follows:
AOR - 9 Jan 2021
FSW - Outland
Medicals: Passed on Feb 12 2021
Biometrics submitted: Feb 26 2021
Eligibility: Passed
Security: In Progress
Criminality: Not Started

Edit: My Background status says "We are processing your background check.."

My question to the forum:
Provided that border regulations change for applicants like me and we are allowed to enter Canada, how long does one assume for the PPR to be issued after Eligibility?
Thanks.

How did you contact ircc?

My TextNow app isn't accepting the payment for some reason ! Your genuine suggestion would really help !

Can I ask you which country are you applying from and how did you manage to call IRCC from outside of Canada? I tried the number mentioned here on the forum, but the robot says that they don't answer questions about the visa status, so I was not sure should I proceed or not. I have kind of the same timeline, except I have no idea about Eligibility and Security

 

[Vjakhar]

Is start of security occur after conclusively passing eligibility.
Anyone fsw outland with CPC ottawa v.o. , what is progress status ?

[HAHAHA123]

CEC inland, Original office: Sydney

3.15 BIL/MEP
4.01 eligibility, security: not start, criminality: in progress

I call IRCC today, they tell me I am in Ottawa office, but the first time(at 3.15), it's Sydney office I remember.
Has someone knows if possible transfer to Ottawa due to criminality check?
