I sent an email to Ralph Goodale 2 days ago and have not received a reply.

Also, when requesting GCMS notes for a file at the London Office, is it the London Office who provide the notes? I'm 46 days and counting since my GCMS request :(

Yesterday i emailed the office of Mr. Ralph Goodale and got this as a reply:

Visa Office - London

Eligibility is in progress – recommend pass.

Criminality and security checks are passed.

Medicals are valid until Dec 2019.


My Aor is 24 jan. What do you experts think how much more time will be required to get the golden email?

His office replied in hours so it might be the best option to get updates.
Sir, soon your PPR is in way...

Just a note: Remember that the forum users here represent an extremely small sample size of the number of people who have actually applied and not only that but are likely to be people who have had problems (people for who it all goes smoothly don't join Internet forums in the hopes someone will tell them it's going to be alright)

Friend just got his CoPR sent out from LVO today after receiving PPR a week ago.

They are no doubt processing as much as they are able at any given time.

It's a broken system, but it's not nearly as broken as this forum presents it as.

He is a minister and all i know is he proactively responds to your queries regarding immigration application. His email is goodale@sasktel.net
And as to why we email him? The answer is we all are anxious and dying to get updates
This is really not sensible. Don't proliferate his email address with the advice to contact him. This is the exact same information you can get by calling them free using google hangouts.

I contacted IRCC without google hangouts (I wasn't aware of the option and it cost me £60 - my bad). The agent told me that my file had been transferred to London so they couldn't give me any further information. I have since sent a webform asking for an update - ignored. I have also contacted Ralph Goodale - ignored. 16 days til my 6-month timeframe expires. I also ordered GCMS notes 44 days ago - still not received.

Right now, I'll do anything I can for any kind of update. I'm starting to resent the whole process.

Exactly, Outland FSW applicants who have their files outside of Canada cannot get updates by calling CIC.

Not even a little bit true. I've completed the process. I'm outland in the UK and was able to call as often as I wanted. The fact that you don't know how to use the services available to you is your problem not mine =P

And yes, my PPR and COPR were handled by LVO but I guess I must just have been talking to ghosts this whole time.

Feel free to DM me. Mine was also processed by London and it had no effect on the process at all.

You are in the UK, of course you can directly call london visa office, but just cuz ur in UK doesnt mean everybody is, dont be stupid. Oh yeah? you are a real expert in calling and inquiring ur status from them? Then why not share how its done and be ACTUALLY HELPFUL rather than beating around the bush n just taunting us.
