Montreal VO, really testing patience of the applicants..

I totally agree, never meant to lose my cool or become impatient, but Montreal has ruined my joy for journey towards PR: Its 337 days since my AOR, No Review required, No ADRs, everything is clean slate on my application. but still these many days is unacceptable. I wish there was some way to complain their inefficiency to ministry and IRCC president. Even though they are giving us privilege by accepting us to apply for PR, this inefficiency of delayed processing of applications compared to other visa offices makes it worst experience.

How long did the notes take?

around 15 days.

How long did it take for you to receive the notes? Is it taking longer than 30 days? Is it 30 calendar days or business days?

It is 30 calendar days but legally they are able to extend it further under certain conditions. I am at my 4th set of notes and it has never taken more than 30 days.

It took exact 20 calendar days the last 2 times.

Hi @cansha ,
I got a call from the program assistant on 20th Nov'2019 to verify employment details provided in the application.
Can we call that number and try to check the status, any adverse effect???

You can try calling that number but I doubt it will be an assigned number and someone will pick it up. But I don't see any issues in trying that.

Thank you for your swift suggestion.

I found out through GCMS notes that my eligibility was "Appears Met" and POF was "Review Required", for which I uploaded the Balance Statement last week. I received a ghost update on the account today and saw that my "Review of additional documents" has been updated to "Not Applicable". What does this update indicate? @cansha

Yes I must be at my 4th GCMS request I think. It hasn't been touched since April and nothing is passed, started or anything. I have no hope. I know it sounds crazy that one could lose a digital application, but I am beginning to think mine is lost.

Hey',
Since your inland, did you try getting in touch with your local MP? It probably won't do much (I did that twice ...), but the agent will have to open your file and write a comment on it (basically saying he received a call on MP line by Mrs/Mr etc..) and that will at least let them know you're still out there.

Hi, yes indeed I did that and I received no response. Unluckily, I live in Ottawa and my MP is an important minister and surely she has other priorities.

Someone looked at your updated bank statements.

I received the CoPR today from London, Ontario office. It was a long wait of more than 7 months. Thank you everyone who helped me clear my doubts. My VO was Montreal.
