Just sent this email to CIO Sydney Search Inquiry. My last email to them got a reply after 45 days
UCI: XXX
Application #: ZZZ
Hello,
I wanted to inquire as to the status of my permanent residency application, which has been showing on the Client Application Status website as "Application Received" since November 2013 with no updates since January 2014.
I am aware that processing times vary, so I specifically wish to inquire as to whether there are any issues or outstanding documentation on my part that may be delaying the processing of my application, which is now in its 9th month.
I have attached a copy of my Right of Permanent Residency (RPRF) fee which was paid on May 30, 2014 and emailed to CIO-Cost-Recovery@cic.gc.ca as per the instructions I received from Centralized-Intake-Office@cic.gc.ca in an email dated May 15, 2014.
I would appreciate any information you can provide. Thanks.
