So finally we have an update after the proof of funds was asked on 24th Jan, which we submitted on 28th Jan, that the background check has begun. I don't know still how far is the PPR but with these updates at least my hopes are up. What about you guys ? anybody similar out there.

PS : Also got a letter stating that i am a candidate for immigration to Canada and how i can find a job there. Is this normal ?

Nah dont worry much.
I was stuck in "we are reviewing your additional documents" from june to dec.

So when i got the same letter and my bgc started i was so happy.

Then i got my gcms which had rr and turns out it took so long cos of RR. So I got nervous again.

Then I called up cic and they told me eligibility is cleared so i got happy again.

Then the long wait till jan 22nd made me nervous again.

I even got a ghost update on 22nd. Since then I have been checking online 2-3 times daily lol. But now i am nervous the most cos once application moves overseas call centre agents stop helping you.

But to be honest, even though i dont know what the ghost update was for, i am happy at least my file is being looked at.

So sure its a rollercoaster, but you getting the letter is good thing regardless of how much onger it takes because it means your file is no linger gathering dust :D

What exactly is the RR for? Did you submit any LoE or documents via CSE to rectify the RR?

Hi,

AOR 22 May here.
This is very helpful. I am in the same situation as yours I think. I got my GCMS note at end December and I notice that my case was not opened since the 31 May, because a review was required as my LoE doesn't list the duties.
I sent an updated LoE via CSE begining of January and I am waiting since without any update noticed.

Thank you for CPC Ottawa email, I will send them an email, could you advise what should I write in this email ?
I just asked or updates as the 6 months had passed and I mentioned that I uploaded updated documents via CSE if you do email them please note

When you say SS, do you mean Security screening? and it took almost 7 months?

Yes, our (both my husband and I subjected to SS) Security Screening lasted for almost 7 months. It's not that bad. I heard SS usually takes around 1 year in many cases.

It depend on why exactly your work experience require a review, in my case it was the duties for each position that was missing.
I didn't got an ADR also despite my file was not opened since end May, I discover it via a GCMS. I sent them the required document by rising a CSE.
