I'm totally out of my witts now. I haven't had any updates since 14th April 2023 (Apart from a ghost update on Oct 27th). No LPP. Ordered ATIP 3 times. The latest one again went to eGrants - PE. LPP shows not started, however, it has a due date of December 30th, 2023, but I don't know if it means anything, or if they even honor it. Sending an email to the Sydney office gets a response "I am not allowed to send emails to this address". Wrote an email to our MP and it got no response whatsoever.

Anyone else here is stuck in the same boat?

Hey!

I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to share my recent experiences regarding my application. It's been quite a journey, and I understand that many others may be facing similar challenges.

I've taken several steps to address my concerns, including submitting five GCMS notes, reaching out to my local MP, and applying for CSIS under the Privacy Act. While I did receive the details I requested on time, unfortunately, the information consistently reflects that the LPP has not started.

As of October 25th, there has been no progress in the status of my application, and it has been over six months since the initial test. It's been a bit disheartening, to be honest but I'm not losing hope, there is light at the end of the tunnel and I'm sure we'll be dome soon.

All the best and don't let this bother you too much.

I've requested ATIP on Nov 10th - haven't gotten anything back from there either.

What is the timeline on getting answers under privacy act? How can I track that request?

Thanks Rushi! Good to know I am not alone. Btw, let's try this if you haven't already.

Yeah I understand how bad it is in the Sydney office but what does "Grant Review Ready PM01" really mean? Is it a good thing that my application is ready for something like a final review or a bad thing that something is not right and they need to review.

Your application is not in the Sydney office; it's in the Ottawa office. It's unclear why they haven't initiated your security and criminality checks yet, which is quite unusual. Your LPP won't start until you pass the security and criminality checks.
