Hi everyone..just wondering if any one of you have come across this. I sent a webform regarding my application.
Sa rcvd bio and medical done and passed in march.
The inquiry was for where my current app is and will it transferred
The response i got from webform was following:

“pleased to inform you that everything appears to be in order with the application.

All the required documents and information have been received by the responsible office for the moment.

The next step in the process will be to make a final decision in regards to the application. Rest assured that we will communicate with you once a decision has been reached in your file.”

Hi! This is a generic response that they give. I have received the same from them when I sent a webform to check where my application is.

All we can do is wait

Good luck! I hope you will hear something positive from them very soon.

I called them yesterday, my file is still stuck in Sydney. They said it will be transferred to Local visa office in the near future but they can’t tell when . It’s been more than two months now since medical passed.

I will update as soon as we hear something from them.

Frustrating

Did they at least tell you that what they have been doing with your file at Sydney?

PA from India - November 1st application received.

Cleared medical in March and then on 2nd April, I received an email from IRCC Mississauga stating my file will be transferred to NDVO - New Delhi Visa Office.

Yesterday I see they have updated my ECAS stating :

We have started processing your application on 24th of April.

I haven't received any email about my background verification yet.

Amy idea how much more time it should take?

I am currently working and I have to serve 2 months of notice period.

If I foresee this coming by July I shall put down my papers now.

My application was transferred to NDVO on March 26, 2019 after sitting in Mississauga for over a month and there has been no update since then. I have seen applications being transferred to NDVO after 5-6 months as well. It is a good thing that they transferred it without wasting much time.

The average time in NDVO is 5-6 months (in the first 3-4 months it is usually silent). For one or two people NDVO has made a decision in 1-2 months. Let's hope they process our applications quickly.

Also, NDVO is famous for not replying to queries and not sending any acknowledgement as well. They have started processing your application in NDVO is a good sign though.

Thank you, and yes that's true I sent a web form it's been a month now to let them know that we haven't received any correspondence from them because it says on my husband's ECAS that the 'decision is made' and have sent some correspondence about the decision on March 2nd and we haven't received anything and they didn't even respond.

I guess I better wait Thanks and I wish you get your PPR very soon.

Question for the people who applied for GCMS notes.
When is the best time to apply generally speaking? Is there such a thing as applying prematurely?

Appreciate the feedback as always.

A lot of people say if NDVO has started processing your application, it can be considered as AOR2 and that is a good thing. Just hope they process it quickly.

It could be possible you are seeing Decision Made on sponsor's side, while on the PA's side they are still processing the application. You can also check GCKey account for more details if you have the application linked. Otherwise, if you have a representative, then the chances are you representative is getting all the emails from IRCC.

NDVO reply to queries in 20-30 days if they think there is a need (if your application has passed the one year time or something went wrong), otherwise they will just ignore the queries.

Thanks, yes I keep checking that too nothing changed on Gckey.

There is no representative so we shall receive it sooner or later. Thanks again.

Yes, if there is a representative they will be receiving all that.

You need to follow up with them to check if they are receiving emails from IRCC.
