Hello friends!!

I would like to say thanks all of you who give their important time and help others on this site. Here is my timeline and result.
ITA date : 3rd April
AOR date : 11 may
Marriage date :18 may
Add spouse name date : June 12
Medical pass date : end of June
Ask for additional marriage pics : September 18
PPR : 25 September
Passport send date for me : 29 September
Passport send date for my wife : 2 October
My wife got passport back at 18 October
I just called at cic and agent said I’ll get till next week bcz they already post it form Ottawa.

I have one last concern. I must have to go back my home country for some reason at November 19 and I’m planning to come back at end of February. I have two options to do landing.
1: Once I’ll get my passport then immediately I’ll do landing and then apply for travel documents and then go back home.
2: I’ll go back home and then do landing when I’ll Come back at Toronto airport with my wife.

If I’ll choose option 2 then do I face any problem at airport?

If you come back before the expiry date on PR visa, it should be ok.

Hi,
my aor is may 10
Medical passed 22nd July
Additional documents asked 31st august
There is no movement afterwards
There is no change in status even though Additional documents have been sent within 3days
I called call centre they say everything is looking fine . Shall I just wait till 6 months time period gets over as there is no news from CIC.
Any suggestions will be highly appreciated.

Hi everyone,

5 months passed from my AOR and there are no changes :(

Is there anything I can do to follow up?

I already called them in August and looks like the customer support cannot give me any updates.

Any comments would be appreciated.

What does your BG (background check) status show? I think you are absolutely fine. Most of us have gone through these kind of stagnant stages. The call centre agent in your case was kind enough to ensure you that everything was fine (which didn't happen to some of us, in some cases the agents were rude too). So no worries, suddenly you will see your PPR mail, and it will happen soon by the grace of the Almighty. :)

Did you write to CPC-Ottawa or your local visa office? This is not encouraged but sometimes proven helpful.

Officer review is the last review. Seems you are well on your way to receiving your PPR... Its odd that criminality is still in progress... since they received your FBI Report.

Guys, approximately after 3 months seen some movement.
BG check went to NoT applicable from "Your application is in progress. We will send u msg when we start ur background check".
I didnot check my status yesterday. I am not sure whether it was today or yesterday.
Can someone tell which stage is this??
Reply would be appreciated.
Thanks.

It says background check not yet started,

call centre person had told that the file is in Ottawa office, what does it indicate ......
I got two more weeks to pass 6 months hopefully something comes out good
Hope all of us waiting will soon get some good news

Hey guys,
my AOR May 19, CEC inland
medical passed Aug 02
IP2 Oct 03
I called CIC on Oct 10, and the agent told me that I have passed all checks and is waiting for a finalized decision...
It's been two weeks now...but I still haven't heard from them..I'm getting very anxious. It seems that everyone else is getting their PPR a few days after IP2, and I don't know what to think right now.
Is anybody here in the same situation?
Anything helps. Thank you!

I am in IP2 since Aug 17. Might be your NA2 took long time. So hopefully - your IP2 won't be long.
