I sent Accra visa office an Email requesting for an update in my application yesterday and surprisingly i got a reply today.
Dear Sir,
This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada. However, please be advised of your NEW file number - B*********.
We strongly advise that you quote the above file number in all your future correspondence with our office and sign with your full name as you have indicated on your application. Failure to do so will have your enquiry not responded to.
Your file is currently in queue to be paper-screened by an officer. Once this screening takes place, you will be contacted with regards to the next steps in the processing of your application.
Thank you for cooperation and for your interest in immigrating to Canada.
Regards,
Immigration Section - Section d’immigration (KAS)
Patience is really the key here,
My timeline is in my signature
Cheers
