Thats not entirely true. Are you sure about this. If that's the case , I'll never get my PR. I've loans pending - $15k on my car ,$160k on house & $2k on my credit cards when I applied back in November.
I strongly believe outstanding loans and/or credit card bills are not counted against you.

Secured loans are OK because you have collateral. So if you don't pay your house loan or the car loan, the bank will simply just seize your car or house.

Unsecured loan is a different matter although... it is debt that will one day have to paid from your cash assets. So it makes sense to deduct credit card debt from your provided POF amount.

If your POF amount - credit card debt is less than required amount, I strongly suggest uploading a new POF document along with proof of source of new funds. Because, it is 100% going to result in rejection (assuming you have declared your loans).

Congrats on all PPRs!!!
Does anyone ever received this kind of email? It was sent from survey+ircc_external2019@advanis.net: "You have been selected to take part in a Government of Canada survey!

We would like to hear about your experience with Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada. Our records indicate that you have recently received a decision from us on an application.

The survey is voluntary and will take about 15 minutes to complete."

But i went in my application and check, it's still processing.

Looks like they are a market research consultancy who probably got your email from some third party. See their website - http://advanis.net/.

They would not have any insight into your application process.

Thank you for saying positive things.
Unfortunately, I think this movement sucks... cuz what I found online is that people have waited for more 160-200days to receive a decision from Montreal VO... Have no idea why my application is transferred to Montreal but who knows...

Probably has to do with workload I guess.

Or maybe they just like your application a lot lol

Montreal is the worst place to have your application in my opinion but I can't say yours may go through the same thing. My first EE application was April 2018. I called them after 3 months and was told my application is at Montreal. Ordered my notes and I saw RR on the application. Mind you, the application was sent to Montreal in early June but I heard from them in October with a procedural fairness letter. They asked me to submit a new bank statement. I was relieved cos I had I never touched the money in my account so I still had $12,900. I printed a new bank statement and uploaded it. 3 days latter, the refused me with the reason that i do not met the financial eligibility. The officer deducted my credit card bill of $2300 from my statement balance and concluded that i only have $10,000 plus which is less than the required amount. I paid off all my credit card bills and reapplied again on November 12. Waiting for the next absurd thing that they will tell me...lol

Hi,
I might be in a similar situation. Can anyone please advice on the following,
I applied on Nov 5 and I had 24K in my account that day. I also uploaded my credit card bill till date which had no outstanding amount.
But I paid PR application fee which is $2300 on Nov 5 using my credit card. I paid that amount in December's credit card bill.
Will VO deduct this amount from POF..?? How will they know about it...?? The Credit card bill I submitted along with my application, did not have this bill...But they would know I paid the application fee with credit card that day.
Should I go upload new POF..?? Please advice...

No problem.
Yeah, Calgary and Vancouver are small offices. Files usually take longer than Ottawa and Sydney office

Not true, mine only took 3 months and 1 week and it was in Vancouver.

What does your current status on cic website say about eligibility and background check?

it says We are reviewing if meet eligibility and IP1

The good news is that your criminality started. But as I said before, it has nothing to do with your eligibility. For that, a case analyst has to pick up your file and checks your job experience, search online, PoF, etc.
Anyways, don't worry, even if it is gonna take longer. Hope you hear a good news soon I am sure it won't be that long for you

Thanks a lot.
Guess the only thing left if to patiently wait and hope

Given that you are in Canada,how did they know about the unsecured debts,did they do a credit check or they base it on information you provided?I am so grateful i didnot have to provide POF under CEC.

Hi, how come you didnt have to provide POF?
I'm also CEC, but the application had a place to upload POF as mandatory.
I know I read somewhere on CIC website that CEC doesn't need to meet min funds, bit I still had to upload docs.

You entered that you had funds therefore it asked for it If you entered 0, it would not ask.

It has been 3 months since I have sent them the BGV declaration form. I don't understand what is taking them so long to complete BGV because
I don't have any travel history.My Passport is completely Empty
I have not lived in multiple cities or states for them to verify multiple PCCs. I know I am not the only applicant, but still 4 months is too long

.

We both have the exact same timelines(although mine is AOR Nov 2) but same CRS score and single applicant.

Even I was asked for IMM 5669

I only have 1 travel history(Studied in the UK) and lived in the same address for 15 years. processing time shows 9 weeks but nothing has started in my application yet.

When I called CIC I was told my application was pushed to June 11, 2019. I believe yours might be pushed too.

It really does suck but there is nothing really we can do
