I think bugging them, even with polite CSEs, would be counterproductive and could even backfire. You're only 2 weeks away from the 6 months, the good news could come soon.
I totally agree. In trying to be amusing, I was exaggerating slightly and probably wasn’t clear above. I think CIC are pretty reasonable in giving a 6 month timeline, and they are very clear about not contacting them until you have waited six months. Any bugging them ahead of that time is just not following their process so standard reply’s or even no reply is fair enough.

However, if people are willing to respect their six month timeline, then I feel strongly that once 6 months and a day have passed, like in ExpressoEntry’s case above, they should take a week or so to come back with a proper reply (I.e we have concerns about your work experience, or your security checks are taking longer than expected because of your travel history etc). A standard cut and paste response within 48 hours having followed their process is literally pointless - they should just have no customer service and cut the RPRF fees!

Hello All,

I am in the same boat. Waiting since July without any update on the application. The only update that i received is that the medicals is passed. Apart from that there is no change.
Also, send a CSE last week and they replied exactly what is posted above.
Fingers crossed !

my aor is of 28th july 2018,now in 6th month i got information by calling cic that my elieligibilty is in review rerequired, so their are two queries regarding this. First thing is whether to wait now for cic reply or i ordered gcms and as per review required, i give information through web form without asking by cic agent. Second query is, how much time they will take to clear eligibilty after review required. What is best option after wewget information of eligibility review required ?

Order the notes and try to proactively clear the review required (this is why it's best to Order notes 2 months post AOR). Once you know the reason for the review you can easily submit supporting documents via a webform.
It can take weeks to a few months depending on where you application is being processed and the agent in charge. No one can give you a timeline.

Hey guys,
Is there anyone here who has confirmed that their eligibility is Met/Recommended passed but still waiting for RPRF request months down the line?

Jan 15 2019 is maintenance day guys. Hoping for PPR rain for all here. fingers crossed!
It HAD to be Jan 15... Anyway, I have heard about this before: just before a maintenance there is a bunch of PPR requests, but unfortunately I don't think it would apply for those suffering from security not started decease...

why do you think so?
In the sign in main page there is a notice: "This online service will be unavailable from 3:00 a.m. to 5:30 a.m. Eastern time, on Tuesday January 15, 2019, in order to perform system maintenance."
