Hi All,
I have a few questions regarding my ongoing outland express entry PR application.
To share the timeline with you:
AOR: March 14, 2020
Biometric Collection Letter: May 4, 2020. However, due to the closure of biometric collection centers in India, I was only able to give my biometrics on February 26, 2021, which was uploaded to the portal on the same day.
Medical passed (2nd instance) - Medical was requested in the month of March 2021 and was cleared within 3-4 business days.
Post this there has been no update on the application and it is stuck in limbo since then.
The only message I see in my profile is:
"Background check
- We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information."
The questions I had regarding my application are as follows:
- Do I wait with my current application or withdraw this and apply again? (Assuming I am ready to take the hit in terms of expenses for application and ancillary purposes)
- Should I try getting GCMS notes? I have a contact in Canada that might be able to get it for me (Is this possible? Will it have any benefits?)
Honestly, to say the wait has been tiring would be an understatement. I have been putting off a few life decisions with the expectation of my application being approved, but at the moment, it seems like a distant dream.
Thank you for taking the time out and reading my ordeal. Any leads will be appreciated.
