Got mine today after about 10 days. Since I am already working in Canada ( with work permit), it didn't cost me any money, I just downloaded the form and filled in my information, scanned it and sent it back.
Not much information in the 20-page report, since my application was filed 2 months ago, all it showed is 'not started' for most of the items. It did show when it was received, when the email was sent to me, when it was transferred to VO, where it is now, and the score I was given ( which is the same as what I calculated myself)
Anyway, I guess if I request it again a few months from now I may get some more info about my status, it's definitely more complete than checking the status online at the website of CIC, and I will try it again in the summer -- since it's free anyway, I just need to scan the form again with a new date on it
