I had submitted my updated documents in march 2012 ( IMM0008+ Sch. A, PCC, Updated photos all family)
I had sent email just to confirm whther they have receved my doc or not. they had replied me following

Dear Sir/Madam,

Thank you sending your documents. We are currently in the process of conducting background/ security checks for this application. This is a lengthy process that can take several months. We will be in contact when there have been further developments with the processing of the file.

I was not asked travel history ( I had travelled many countries only for 4-20 days only, creational purpose only). I had many members from this discussion forum, majority of senior members advices me to send travel history.I had done same.
I think that is main reason for delay of my application.they have mentioned it may take several months.that was a big mistake. Any member can predict how much time it may take for security check aproximately? and what should I do? should I order CAIPS notes at this stage.

I am sure they have laid off many of their experienced staffs and started reviewing files using their office guards. Else, Officers would know that a letter of such kind must have a File number. bad economy has turned them to complete crazy. Last week Minister Kenney appeared at the office of Globe and Mail but he looked so down and out and s exhausted. Julieana, Lodge the case and see what happens , but How would you justify that your J/D were what CIC wanted. this is a very tough part to demonstrate.

It's our Lawyer's job... see wat comes out..
Anyhow, we are hopeful.. :)

Even after sending medicals they mostly reply same like this.

So Nobody knows that what they do before and after medicals.

Still some applicant are waiting from last 8 to 10 months after sending medicals and even some are doing re-medicals.

I guess they are now only looking at clearing backlog... Anything they got in April or late March, they are hardly checking it... look at the flow of response people are getting after Mid-March..... Kenny has hit them hard on their head :P so now they are out of their mind and doing crazy things...... but I was surprized to see one of the detailed letter a member received from VO, that was written in detail, point by point... and VO also gave 30 days for justification... That VO must have less work, Kenny Mama please give him some more files to process :D

No they didn't write exact date that my processing has started but they only stated that it's in process, I got the letter thru tcs and they called me on my mobile.

Its normal dear these days, many of us got these letters but it must be different than initial ones.. they have reviewed and found it eligible so keep your hopes high as nothing else can be done at this point ...

Dear Starhaider and All ,
One of my relative has applied for immigration and was interviewed in feb 2012 in Dubai, since then there is no reply , CAIPS mentioned that there has been a letter issued to the Employer for the confirmation of the job but employer denies of anything .
Now i was wandering if you can give your opinion regarding his case

Another questions is I was thinking to advise him for a student visa but he said that one of the university denied acceptance because his immigration case was in process and they said that one can NOT apply as student if his/her case is already in process, But according to my information there should be no hurdle and the 2 applications can be processed at the same time , NEED YOUR HELP

Best regards to all , and Happy waiting ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
