Hi, I am in the same boat now. My file was at Ottawa till beginning of this month. I moved to IP2 on 15th October. Yesterday I emailed Ralph Goodale MP, and he informed me my file is at Sydney, Nova Scotia now. Eligibility recommend passed, Criminality passed on 15th October (ip2 day) and Security not started! I really hope we are not in for a long wait!
Did you email to Ralph Goodale and he replied back to you? Are you sure?

I guess moving to NS isnt a bad sign - many Ottawa applicants were recently moved. I havent seen any movement since IP2 on October 26 - did you get any ghost update?

my guess is that there could be a process/workflow change to modify or improve the PPR process due to which all the applications were on hold and only some are getting mails. Hope they bring some standardized process if my guess is true :)
Your guess is incorrect sorry to break the bubble heheh

Hmm, I hope so. No, no ghost update, I think ghost update only happens when everything including security get completed? As per Ralph Goodale security yet to initiated.

This is probably the third maintenance notice since we moved to IP2, so it actually means nothing :mad:
Is it? I guess its second after 15 oct. After first update many people moved to ip2. We cannot totally bank on it but it does give some hope for update. Lets see how things go before and after update.

Got a "Ghost Update" today morning (yesterday CAN time) after IP2 and ADR movements to NA a few days back. Any potential guesses ? Has anyone experienced SS after a Ghost Update ?

Obviously I am sure, why would I say this if I didn't do it? His office secretary Ms. Robyn Sullivan replied me back with 6 hours from his official email id.

I second. Either they are going to run a "batch" or fix an issue wherein several ITAs (day before's draw) have not received their ITA emails.
