I want to share my PPR story here since it has been quite a journey for the past 5+ months.
And the main reason for me the share this is to emphasize the importance of ordering GCMS notes!
Like most of you, we did not hear anything about our application status post IP1. And then we got to know our VO was Montreal after calling CIC somewhere in July/August. Flash forward, we decided to order our GCMS notes in September and when we received our notes in October it was mentioned that our ELIGIBILITY was REVIEW REQUIRED for PA for Employment. The Case Analyst reduced 50 points and our CRS score came down to 425, which was below the minimum score required and even our FSW points went below the requirement. We felt an action had to be taken immediately so we raised a CSE on 10/26 and submitted additional documents we felt could add more clarity to the situation. We wrote another LOE and explained in detail and attached it along with the documents. We received a standard response for our CSE, but on 11/22 my application moved to IP2 and I received the Request Letter on my account within few minutes of moving to IP2.
PLEASE ORDER GCMS NOTES WITHIN 75-90 DAYS OF AOR. IF NOT FOR GCMS NOTES, THERE WAS A HIGH CHANCE OF OUR FILE GETTING REJECTED. NOT ALL VO’S GET BACK TO YOU ASKING FOR ADR.
We can agree to disagree on points you have different opinion, but here’s the reality and this my story. I’m happy to answer any additional questions even through PM’s if interested.
Lastly, thanks to all the amazing members of the group &
