Hi everyone,
I believe my case is different from everyone else. My application for PR was received on December 7th, 2012. Then on January 25th I was requested to get medical done, pay PR fee and summit background checks all in one email. On April 30th my status on e-cas changed from 1) "application received on December 7th, 2012. to 2)Medical results have been received. From what I have read MR is usually the third step. Well, 2 days ago my status on ecas changed to 1) "application received on December 7th, 2012. 2)We started processing your application on August 28, 2013. and 3)Medical results have been received.
Kind of weird right? For me this whole process has been very long. I started with the application for the Alberta Immigration nominee program in 2009, then I finally got the nomination in 2010, then my paperwork got lost and then they found it in Sydney, Nova scotia in 2011. I pretty much had to star all over again and finally sent my application for PR on June of 2012.
I really hope I get PR soon ´cause things in Venezuela are terrible and I cannot stand the third world any longer.
Good luck to you all.
