Reading Those OP1 and OP2 procedures posted earlier, i found this interesting, especially for those with extended processing times:

5.39.Response to inquiries and representations – clients and representatives


Visa office e-mail address.If there is no reply after 30 days or if there is a disagreement with the reply, you may contact Case Management Branch, by e-mail at case-review-im-enquiry@cic.gc.ca and copy the responsible Director for the geographic region by e-mail (preferred) or by fax to 613-957-5802.B)

For those who are not satisfied with the response and are over the year mark of close to it, don't you think it will be a good idea to reach out to that Case Management Branch and give it a shot?
thanks for sharing, I will send an email because this situation is so desperate 15 months waiting without knowing anything about my application. I need answers.

Review Required means that there will be an interview, barring some miracle.
Not necessarily. Mine said that and we never had an interview. It means the file needs to be reviewed further

That is what worries me in my case that they have not asked me for any additional documents, because if they asked me for something, it is because they are working on my application. 03/24 is 15 months for me, I hope you receive PPR soon.

PA from Guyana
Husband Is Canadian.

so I Just came out of my interview,I would say it was torture instead of a normal interview! Smh the woman that interviewed me in room 2 was very rude an unpleasant hence she took out all her anger on me while asking questions about my husband, and when I answer her questions some of which she refuses to believe an saying she don’t believe some of my answers.
She ask me about his childhood,siblings, school, favourite sports team, his job, salary, family, why did we got marry, how did we got marry, why was it kept in my country rather than his, if he supports me financially, if he has depths to pay off, his savings,plans for our future, why did I attend the interview alone, if I’m to get refuse if he will come live Guyana with me an leave his country,what do we chat about when we’re apart, our honeymoon, why he didn’t get a girlfriend/wife from his country rather than meeting me, etc etc I can go on an on! It was a freaking torture!!! Now we just have to wait to see whether we will get a refusal letter or passport request that’s what she said. Until she has finish putting the pieces together.! God be with us! Smh Goodluck to u Guys.
Thank you so much for posting this. My husband and I are waiting for his interview date. You and your husband are in my prayers.

Did she indicate that if you attended the interview together that it would have been more beneficial?

Thank you for these links Mrs. Santiago. There is much to read in there. I did notice that the date on the OP 1 document was from 2010. I did find what I believe to be the most current version of OP 1 on the canada.ca website:

https://www.canada.ca/content/dam/ircc/migration/ircc/english/resources/manuals/op/op01-eng.pdf

It is dated 2017 and I can't find anything newer. I don't know what all of the differences are between the documents but I feel it is best to have the most recent.
