Does anyone know how long it takes for the application to get transferred from Nova Scotia VO to the Manila VO, our application got sent on Friday from Nova Scotia to Manila but no updates yet.
Thank You
Just wait for AOR2, It should be quick, like 3-5 days. When your ecas says on line "2. We started processing PA's application on September ?, 2019." - this is when they acknowledged that they have received it, so, I think you should check your ecas and see if you have AOR2 on line 2 for the applicant.

Hi,

Any idea how long it will take to update the ecas once we submitted additional document thru webform. They asked us for an updated police clearance. Another thing, do they inform us or do they update the ecas once they receive the additional document? TIA

Does anyone know generally from this stage how long it takes to get the DM?
We don't know, it's cases to case basis. Some applications are scrutinized more than others, I've thought that we would have a DM in August or early September but I was wrong, at this point I'm not sure anymore, they will tell you that your application is in queue waiting for an officer to start blah blah blah. I think for us it will be 50/50, they will probably ask for more proof on cohabitation even-though we have lived together for over 1500 days continuously, I think that would qualify us has common-law but maybe behind their minds they are wondering why we are not married yet and doubting that our relationship is genuine even if we have a child together. We just want to go Canada where I was born and bring my family with me, what is so difficult? My daughter was suppose to start kindergarten in Canada in September, now everything is just up in the air!

Hi Experts,

My Current Status in GC KEY changed from ‘Your action is required’ to ‘Application/profile updated. When i go to Check Full Application status, there are no updates. Also no update in ECAS. Is this what we call ghost update? Any idea if I’m nearing PPR?

My timeline:
04 March - App received
17 April - Done biometrics
10 June - Addt’l dics and med request
13 June - Done medical
24 June - Medical passed
26 June - Submitted addt’l docs

Thanks in advance!
