Good work @ Rajkamal Mohanram. Hope they not only acknowledge it but take some actions to improve the processing time. High time for us all to follow the step. I will be sending it too.
Chan is not more the Minster of MCIIT. New minster is Laura Albanese (https://news.ontario.ca/profiles/en/laura-albanese?_ga=1.147240247.1270133915.1465246254)rajkamalmohanram said:Today, I decided to send a note to the Minister of MCIIT - Respected Michael Chan. I wrote this in hopes of getting a more transparent system for all applicants - A system where OINP would provide a regular about the processing timeline. The below is what I sent to the Minister -
I encourage each and every one of you to take this opportunity and write to the Minister. Be frank, polite and express your concerns. One person sending this might be looked at as an isolated issue. This is not an isolated issue - This concern is common to many applicants.

Please let me know what you think.
Okay I stand corrected. This was sent using the online contact form. So I believe this would have reached the right person!SNS76 said:Chan is not more the Minster of MCIIT. New minster is Laura Albanese (https://news.ontario.ca/profiles/en/laura-albanese?_ga=1.147240247.1270133915.1465246254)

I received the same answer on 20th of May: "Please be advised that our records indicate the file referenced is at the second stage of processing, pending review by an Investigator Analyst."Skvach said:I've got a response to my last email : your application is at the second stage, pending review by an investigator analist ;D
so it's been collecting dust for 3.5 months
Ummm that response and nothing is the samething. They basically wrote 'acknowledged' in a lot more words.tyzia said:I received response from MCIIT website (to my today's letter to Minister):
Thank you for taking the time to write to the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship, Immigration and International Trade. We also would like to thank you for your suggestions.
As you know, beginning on May 9, 2016, Ontario made the responsible decision to place a temporary pause on the intake of applications for select, high-volume OINP streams. Other provinces have also done this in the past after fully maximizing their allotments. It's important to note that lower-volume streams of the OINP and other options continue to be available.

Thank you again for writing.
Hm, super fast, but nothing new. Thanks anyway.
I received the same thing. I'm utterly disappointed. I thought they had a qualified government. At least I got a reply though.tyzia said:I received response from MCIIT website (to my today's letter to Minister):

Do not worry, our mails count a lot. I sent almost 5 mails asking them to deposit the DD as December applicants will face an unique problem of the expiry of the DD. I explained them that not depositing the DD will not benefit either of us and it will incur an interest loss and wasting of time for applicants who will receive their package returned and will have to send it back with new DD ( That time we never new re submission will stop), many others also did the same thing but never recd any acknowledgement. But to our surprise it was incorporated in the 9th May update that they will ask for the new DD in case of validity problem.rajkamalmohanram said:I received the same thing. I'm utterly disappointed.

But please don't stop writing. Keep writing and we might see a change.
I haven't received reply to the last 5 - 6 emails I sent from April 2016 till date. :/Skvach said:I've got a response to my last email : your application is at the second stage, pending review by an investigator analist ;D
