I am inland but my wife is outland. Funny thing about this was that there was no option for me to upload the evidence of payment so I had to send it via webform. To crown it up, with webform now you dont get confirmation that it was received ,so my account still shows action required by me even though I have submitted what they wanted
Are you Inland or Outland? I got a similar notice, when my application was in process.

Also @HFL2018 are you able to tell me how soon after the request for bio-metrics and your payment submission that you got a response. Like did you have to do the bio-metrics before PPR or it was just processed and then the bio-metrics will be done when you land et all. I just wanna have an idea of what to expect QUOTE="HFL2018, post: 7996322, member: 805125"]Are you Inland or Outland? I got a similar notice, when my application was in process.[/QUOTE]

I got a response after 2 days. I raised a CSE to send the payment first of all before I noticed the handle open and then I uploaded the receipt of payment. After the payment, I received another update on my account and it was the biometrics letter. That’s what I used to book an appointment for biometrics for my dependant. Since we did the biometrics in the US, it was uploaded same day. And the following week I got a call from IRCC to inform me that my file was approved and to confirm if we all were in Canada and if we could go to Vancouver for the landing interview. It all took about 2 weeks for me. From when the Biometrics was done and when I got the call from IRCC confirming approval of my file.
I requested another set of GCMS notes after 2 another weeks of silence and got my notice of interview 2 days later.

Who told you that? 2 months is way too short for PPR. Also, there are people in a whatsapp group with 500+ days waiting in Ottawa
Most folks on the public tracker - plus 7 of my friends

Finally , the process is complete. Took exactly 365 days from AOR to COPR.

This forum was a good support system and kept the hopes up even when i was feeling down.

FSW INLAND

Got adr for work experience, tax documents and POF on December 22nd 2018
Got extension till Feb 2019 and after submission of documents no movement or updates till June 19th 2019. Received a ghost update on June 19th 2018 but no change in the profile.
Called CiC next day and they informed me everything is complete and now wait for landing interview.

Got an update on 4th July and went in the account to check and there was a landing interview letter for July 11th 2019 at Niagara Falls CiC office.

Landing interview experience: they send you a list of document required and 2 photos for the pr card. Appointment was for 11am and was out of the office with COPR by 12.

The whole process took exactly 365 days from AOR to COPR.

Thanks to all the people in the forum for constant updates which gave me hope everyday when i felt tired of the endless wait.

What i learned from experience is provide as much as you can. The company i used to work closed. I had offer letter, confirmation letter and the letter when you leave the company. i mentioned everything in the explanation letter. After 5 months i got adr request for tax documents and more proof for employement.

I did not file taxes as per indian income tax act you do not have to file if you do not meet the threshold. This is not the case in Canada. Then i provided company public records to prove existence, 4 affidavits from supervisors and colleagues and bank records with images of the cheques i received from the company from the bank and letter from CA to prove i did not have to file taxes.
