Visa Office......
Montreal
Hello my lovely people,

Finally some movement on my file so thought to share an update.

I got 2 emails from CIC with msgs in my account.

1. It was to pay Biometrics fees for my spouse and they will then send the letter when she has to do Biometrics
2. Asking for more proof of marriage and filling IMM0008 form.

I have heard from them after 17th March so didnt wanted to take lot of time in replying to 2 above request.

They had given me 15 days to do the needful but I have already submitted the documents visa Case Specific Enquiry although they asked me to do via My CIC account but couldnt find the extra tab to upload the documents.

I hope these requests are a positive sign.

I called CIC to check whether I have passed the background check to which agent replied :

Criminality : Finally Passed on 11th September, 2019
Eligibility: Still in progress
Security : Not started
Visa office : Montreal
AOR : 1st Feb, 2019
Category: CEC Inland

I am assuming that these requests are a positive sign as they will only ask Biometrics of Spouse once they are done my background check but not sure.

Share your thoughts on this experts!

Hope we all get PPR soon before this month end.

God is great!

Looks like all federal employees are either busy in upcoming elections or on annual leave. Hope they are back from Canadian Thanks Giving Vacation. Whatever is it.. WINTER IS COMING.

Montreal used to take 6 months when Ottawa was processing applications in 2/3 months. Now 6 months timeline has no meaning in Montreal anymore. The processing times have crept to 8/9 months at a minimum.

Hi @Holyange. For the part that reads review required for stat questions, have you been prompted to submit any additional documentation? I have same from my GCMS note and I an worried if there's something else I should submit but havent submitted yet - maybe schedule A form. Did you submit that at any point in your own application?

Anyone facing issues with Webform / GCMS notes?
No response to our webforms so far, and the GCMS notes ordered twice are not delivered as well.. Badly wanted to know the application status and no luck.. Not sure if this has something to do with Montreal VO specific applicants..
