I'm a March applicant and I was asked specifically about about FDs. Not just that I was also asked about the recurring deposits in my account.

Excellent! Then perhaps I'm wrong afterall!!! ;D Would love to be wrong here :P

SINP OID is a paper based nomination so there is no way to accept the nomination. You have to just include the copy of the nomination when you mail your application to CIC. I haven't cancelled my OINP application. The processing time for express entry is 6 months whereas for paper based it is 16 months. I am going to wait a couple of months to see if I get the nomination from OINP before proceeding with SINP.

Good plan!
 
Any updates on the March applicants? It has been a quite 2 weeks with regards to nominations.
 
Hello my fellow applicants! :D

I was finally able to get through to an operator this morning! I just kept pressing zero like crazy and eventually it worked! I spoke to a very nice lady, who asked for my file number and date I had sent the ADR reply. After confirming my full name, she said my email was there and that not all officers send out confirmations. She also told me she was going to forward my email directly to my case officer, just in case he handn't seen my message. What a relief! For those of you who haven't received confirmation, I hope this helps you sleep better! Keeping my fingers crossed for speedy noms to us all!

CEC inland

Excellent news! Still anxiously awaiting FSW NoM but this is great news nonetheless...

Priority will still be given to CEC candidates. By asking for additional documents, they are just keeping the hopes of FSW alive.

It looks like we have 18 CEC / MASTERS applicants yet to be nominated, then it's FSW all the way! Keeping hopes up!
 
g126, should we be worried that we didn't receive any call from our investigating officers?

Not sure about this... sure, we always see CEC leading the charge but I think that's purely because they are easier to process... Since they work in Canada it's much easier and quicker to verify their information.. that's why we see more CEC at the beginning.

But when you look at Nov and Dec you see that out of the people remaining there probably are the same number of CEC and FSW proportionally speaking.

I think the only REAL priority are for those with expiring WP, which are usually CEC inland, but some FSW inland also fall in this category.

I'll wager that we'll see FSW NoMs before all CEC / MS are done ;D

g126, actually I fall in the same category but instead of WP expiring, I have my student permit expiring, as per the documents that I submitted them it was on 10th Dec 2016. But I have already applied for an extension. Lets see how it works out.

syedahraza, I don't think so! From what I understand it's VERY RARE for FSW Outland to get calls, so these must be really specific circumstances.

Although, now that I recall you're Inland, right? So in your case you may well get a call... but I wouldn't worry about it as you may also get a NoM without getting a call...

They are very adamant about this, they only give priority to expiring work permits, not student or tourist visas I'm afraid.

Yes I'm FSW inland. Everyday is like a waiting game for me. I just feel that I will receive a call from OINP any time and I want to be ready for it. My OINP folder is always in front of me all the time. This is what OINP has done to all of us.
