Hi Retwant,

What is your NOC code? Are they processing based on the NoC code?

My job title is engineering project manager. I forgot which NOC code, but I promised myself not to open my previous documents again, I just want to focus on landing now and help people here as much as I can.

They don't disclose if they prioritize certain NOC code over another, but oversaturated jobs like Cooks and certain accounting positions are no more eligible. Few jobs have number of caps to limit the accepted applicants. From here, we can safely conclude that Visa Officers may take longer reviewing time or even harsher decision on applicants with oversaturated positions. Your reference letter will help Visa Officers understand your job position and classification under NOC better, and could prove to be very vital to their decision making process...

check out this awesome spreadsheet for timelines... Hope the 'upfront' yellow line across my timeline doesn't jinx anything lol

Did you just got your PPR? On the spreadsheet, it shows you got it today.

It is more helpful to people trying to help other people when they can find those extra information easily. Sometimes those extra clicking would hinder us to help more people, and don't forget most of us are busy people as well.

If you compared to previous datas, the Visa Officers should be reviewing your medical eligibility already or quite soon. That means your previous medical result in August should still be valid and they most likely will use it. Maybe you can pay RPRF upfront (follow Toby's website: http://cectoolkit.weebly.com/faqs/where-do-i-have-to-send-the-rprf-receipt) and email them to inform that you have performed your medical exam @ Panel Physician X, on Y date, and medical result uploaded on Z date, as well as paid RPRF fee on A date. I hope that way your application can be processed faster. You can use Toby's template again:
http://cectoolkit.weebly.com/email-template.html Make sure you ask for reply email to acknowledge receipt of new information...
FYI, RPRF fees are refundable. That's why a lot of people did it upfront on previous months...

Hi retwant,
Thank you for the information and the links. These would be useful. Could you also confirm if I have to send the medicals done scanned copy by email or send the hard copy by mail. I am not sure when the medicals information was sent to CIC office from my physician. How do I get that information.

 

[retwant]

Did your Panel Physician mention anything about emed? What I did before on my case was just mentioning those information without attaching any medical result attachments. But I have heard other people did attach their medical results as well. So either way should work fine~

Hey Guys,

My friend got his MR today. His Application was filed on Nov 18th. I have asked him to post his timelines in the forum.

That's me who put her PPR as TODAY since we don't have any column as Decision made. And the Column "Ecas status" is driven by a formula so ...
I am sure she will get her PPR by EOD or latest by tomorrow.
I will update it accordingly upon her posting to this thread...
Hope that clears your doubt @retwant

Ooo... I am just worried about misrepresentation of facts, and people who barely reads from the forum going straight to spreadsheet will think that someone already got a passport request. The "Ecas status" column shouldn't even be driven by formula, because they are updated whenever the Visa Officers want them to be. At the moment, maybe it is a good time to change that before more "Decision Made" status coming, and may cause mass confusion.

From decision made to passport request, it may take from a day to few months. We can always wish them well to get faster processing times, but let's not put the hope up by making the standard PPR would be a day or two after ECAS update "Decision Made". If we do that, and majority will get otherwise, we will get a lot of disappointments and questions "Why my PPR takes more than a day or two?".
