Hi, DaisyS2017! How long does it take to receive a reply from CPC-Ottawa?

Hey Kau and all,

I just received reply from CPC-Ottawa, they said my case has not been assigned a local visa office yet. So that makes my case still at NA1. It has been 8 days since I got MEP, is this normal?
 
Hello
Did your BG check status change to NA anytime? Because being CEC only medicals got updated to "Passed" and Additional documents to "No Additional documents needed". BG check always says "We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information".

I'm also CEC Inland and my BG changed as follows: NA -> IP (after medicals passed) -> NA -> IP.
The last change was 3 weeks ago, and since then - nothing. So it varies.

Hello All, posting on behalf of a friend - would be most grateful if you could help.

My friend applied on the 12th of Nov as a single candidate and got her AOR the same day. She got married on the 13th of Nov to a guy who already is a landed PR.

We read that as long as on the day of the AOR, Her status is the same as the same as that on the day of the ITA - Its fine. I. Any case, her marriage has no implication on her CRS points since applicants married to Canadian PRs are treated at par with single applicants.

She informed CPC Ottawa via a CSE on 20th of Nov regarding her marital status change but got no response ( she has submission evidence though )

Then she informed NDVO via CSE and email during week 1 Dec, but got no response.

She got her PPR yesterday. We feel that CIC may have possibly overlooked the marital status change, since she did not get any request for additional documents. But that could also be because her husband is already a landed PR.

1. Should she submit the passport and wait for her COPR and see what the document says in terms of her marital status ?

2. Should she write to CPC Ottawa again and check if they have considered the status change ?


Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks

Not an expert, but to file as single on 12-Nov and get married on 13-Nov seems odd. As an agent, they would wonder why she couldn't wait for just another day to apply? Also, did she mention the impending marriage in LOE? (surely she knew about her marriage plans long before she got AOR).
 
Hey I have same time line you.can you please update when u get PPR
Sure. Here's my full timeline so far:

AOR - Nov. 7
MEP - Nov. 17
BG -> NA2 - approx. Nov 19
NA2 -> IP2 - approx. Nov 23
Since then there has been no correspondence.

Also, I live in Toronto, not sure if it matters, since everyone applies online.
 
Finallyyyyyy. Got the much awaited PPR mail. I assume the status of my application stays "In progress" until the passport is stamped?

A big thanks to all the forum members who were of immense help. Will be updating my timeline in detail and sharing my experience over the weekend. :D

has your status changed yet, mine is still same.
My status is still the same: Your action is required. Although the message on my additional documents has changed to your additional documents has been uploaded or something like that. Medicals and everything else is still same. I'll let you know if I see any changes.
