Normal processing but I am from Vancouver which seems to be moving at a pretty fast pace for most people. It has been two months since local office transfer though. Slower than a lot of Vancouver people.

You can order an ATIP to see what section they are working on for you.

There is no transfer to local office line in your e case.

Yes i think they have changed a process now, i too never got status for File Transferred, but a test invite directly after File Processing started.

wow. if it is going like this (no file transfer), we should expect faster processing then..
how could we confirm that the process is changed as you mentioned, because some applicants still receive LOT line prior to test invite....

I did my test today, test went fine. I passed with 19/20.

But during interview officer issued me CIT0520 E - Entry/Exit records from US as i have lots of day trip to US and done by car. So didn't have all the stamps on Passport.

She had a checklist on which she marked Yes for all questions and No for 1, i expect that might be Entry/Exit stamps verification.

Rest she verified all originals for myself and my son. asked couple of ques bout what i work etc.

She also said since u have very few extra days as i applied with 1103 days, so they want to make sure that this is not 1-2 days here n there.

I want to know how bad is it, Will now it will be considered Non-routine application. Is it same as RQ.

How long does it will take for them to verify all this and make a decision.

Thanks!!

Well, from what we all assume, a routine application is no hiccups - no RQ, no mini-RQ, no further forms, no further questions from CIC. I believe they would still need to verify with CBSA and/or the US side those trips; which may take time.
