I have been asked to pay my RPRF . Does that mean my PPR is approved ?

Your application is likely to be approved. You are on a very good track. CIC asks for RPRF when the processing is almost done and the result is likely to be positive. If they were to refuse your application they wouldn't have asked for the RPRF, which is refunded in case of a refusal. Best of luck!

Interesting observation!!! Similarly, what in your experience would be the 'identification signal' for candidates who paid RPRF upfront?

If you pay RPRF upfront and subsequently your APR is refused during the processing of your APR then your RPRF is duly refunded. However, in this case since they have requested for the RPRF, it can be predicted that the application is likely to be approved. They wouldn't have asked for RPRF if they intended to refund it. My interesting observation will be clearer to you if you check out the following CIC web-link:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/skilled/next_steps.asp

At the bottom of this webpage it's explicitly mentioned:

Decision on your application
We will make a decision on your application based on if you:

• meet the eligibility criteria for the program
• are admissible to Canada, based on the results of your:
  • medical exam
  • police certificates
  • background checks

You will need to pay your Right of Permanent Residence fees, if you haven't already.

Confirmation of permanent residence
If we approve your application, we will issue you a:

• Confirmation of Permanent Residence (COPR)
• a permanent resident visa (if you're from a country that requires visas)

I just saw a case refused after paying RPRF on request from CIC, this is no criteria to be sure of eligibility passed. Just speculation based on common logic that why would they ask for RPRF only to refund, it might not hold true for all for cases.

Anyways, heartiest congratulations to you on CoPR. All the best for the journey ahead!!

Can you post more details or link to that "case"?

IP2 is a very good signal for application being on right track, though there are exceptions and people have rejections at IP2 also. So till you get the golden e-mail you can never be 100% sure my friend.

Can you post more details or link to that "case"?

I can't find the case case so quickly now, i will search the tracker for it again and put the link soon.

 

[gurik]

Exactly my point. Thanks.

Anyways, heartiest congratulations to you on CoPR. All the best for the journey ahead!!

Thank you so much friend, hope you get yours also soon now
Best wishes!
