Hello Everyone,

Want to give some update.
we have applied under FSW-inland.

--> AOR: October 07, 2018
--> Medical passed: November 07, 2018
--> After that, there was no update. Still, it is not showing any update online.
--> I called them in April and they said that your file was in Sydney but now it is transferred to Montreal (because of heavy volume).
--> ordered GCMS on 31 May 2019 but still haven't received.

Yesterday, I called them to ask about any update on file and they said everything is approved (it was approved on 09 July 2019) and now I am waiting for PPR email.

Still, they haven't updated my online profile so Call and ask them. I hope everyone will get the PPR soon.

Hello all,

I received an email today saying that The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps within 30 days in order to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and, if applicable, permanent residence visa.

and that I must submit my passport pages.

Is this normal and is it a good sign?

You just received the Golden Mail. No, it’s not a good sign, it’s the best. Go celebrate.

Got a reply from Ralph Goodale's office.

Dear xxxxxxx - I spoke to IRCC regarding your application received Oct 6, 2018. It is at the Case Processing Centre in Ottawa.
Standard processing time is 6 months. This means 80% of routine applications are completed within that time frame, while 20% take longer.

Eligibility is in process – recommend pass.
Criminality passed.
Security checks have not been initiated. They cannot be expedited and timelines are not available.
Medicals are valid until Sept 2020.​

I did my medicals in September 2018. Seems like they've automatically extended it by 1 year.
Does that mean that IRCC expects my file to take much longer to process, hence the extension? Somehow, this does not seem like a good sign for me. :(

I have stopped calling them since past a month... As the information they provide is already with us through GCMS notes.
The agent's reminder to the case officer or the BF date is just an excuse to keep our mouths shut for atleast a month.
They will process our files only when they literally want to or willing to.

This person Ralph is literally helpful.
Atleast he responds to your query with in the same day.
As of now, he only provides with your latest information... But that is much more better than speaking to an agent & pleasing him/her for some update in your profile.
