Hi Everyone,
I am a silent reader ......... don't worry, not here to share my PPR news yet :p Got lots of information in this forum, so thought of giving a unique info I received day before yesterday, after calling IRCC for the first time. My timeline is as follows -

AOR: 9th Nov
MEP: 10th Dec
IP2 : 2nd May
RPRF Request : Same day, 2nd May, later in the night. Payment done on the same day.
Ghost Update 3rd May: Review Document became Not Applicable, so not sure if I can call it a real ghost

No update since then. Raised a CSE on 10th May and got the below reply on 16th May -

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).

We verified the information you provided and can confirm that a decision has been made on the application. Rest assured that the responsible office will contact you by mail or email to provide you with that decision.

We hope the information provided is helpful in assisting you with your enquiry.

Kept waiting for PPR for 1 more week, then finally called IRCC on 22nd. The agent congratulate me saying my file has been approved. However I may have to wait till June 1st / 2nd week since some entries were not made in the system and there are some backlog. Also I got to know my VO is Ottawa. However I saw many people getting PPR from Ottawa where the files were updated after my decision was made. Still they managed to get PPR while we are hanging in the middle.

Just wanted to inform you guys, it may take upto a month to get the PPR even after your application is approved.
Hey! Congrats!!
AOR Nov 9th here and ghost update on May 3rd. Called them on Wednesday and they said background check was still in progress. Keeping all fingers crossed now to get an update early June as well!!

When did you submit? If it was submitted later as an additional document, then it's normal to have review required. Otherwise, you should order to see why it's review required.

Edit. Nowadays, notes are taking 2 months, so not sure how helpful it's going to be.

But after reading about people whose files are approved but they have to wait till June...... I have my own doubt about anything soon :(
Those are inland, outlands are lucky, no 3-4 months waiting for a stupid appointment.

I wonder what the minister or his lackeys do all day. Can't they see bottlenecks in the system and adapt a little for God's sake? Just clear the backlog by issuing PPR's and get back to appointments. 6 months processing, 4 months waiting for an appointment. It just makes no sense!

Hi.. does anyone have any news regarding London visa office? their processing time and if anyone has heard from them recently. Any pprs issued? I am AOR Nov 12 and have no news since MEP and biometrics. Since the file is transferred, nothing to learn from calling ircc either. Any info regarding London visa office is appreciated! Thanks
