Does anyone know how this works? Another 8 months? 1 year? Is there a date for the review to be done??
Thanks!
Agreed and moving on!! Back to October applications...iunno said:Now, now, folks. This is a good thread with minimal drama. Let's try to keep it this way.

Anything on your GCMS notes?Chuckles said:1 year today, October 17, 2012 since Application Received and I have heard absoluetly nothing other than an email on December 5, 2012 confirming the receipt of my application.
Anyone else still in a similar position?
speedyracer said:Hi Senior's
I have another question, I haven't changed my wife's married name as of yet. However we have been married for 3 years and when we filed for our CEC we mentioned her maiden surname not the married surname.
Due to the hassle of updating work permit and then our current passport which will take more than 2 months to update the name and then so on and so forth my question is.
Do you guys advise me to update this info when i get my COPR, when i re-enter canada and update the immigration officer.
P.S i haven't yet received my medical just my RPRF
Thanks for your help.

Unfortunately I havent received them yet. I only applied for them at the beginning of October so don't expect to have them for a few weeks.CEC2013 said:Anything on your GCMS notes?
I would wait for GCMS notes to confirm what's going on. Giving them a call or an e-mail asking for any update on your permanent residency application might also be wise as I think the normal processing time is 12-13 months, so it wouldn't be importuning if you haven't bugged CIC already on what's going on with your file.Chuckles said:Unfortunately I havent received them yet.

Getting restless now though as I haven't heard a single thing about this whole process and feels like Imm one of the 20% of those who's application takes longer to process. Seems the strike really messed things up.
Precisely! However, I would only email CIC about the status of your application if you are having trouble getting GCMS....otherwise it makes no sense. It will take 1 to 2 weeks for them to answer you anyway. From what I have seen, those CIC email replies are all generic and say something like "your file is in queue for review by an officer", which means nothing to you. GCMS will give you - hopefully - a better picture about whats going on.lithium002 said:I would wait for GCMS notes to confirm what's going on.

Hope you hear something positive soon!
