Hello Joe,

Did the CIC encash your RPRF check?

I called the bank today and learnt that CIC cashed my RPRF check
 
Hello Folks,

FYI, I just received an email stating that my file has been transfered to LA to expedite the process. Medical done July 26th. Be patient folks...

Hi Manny
It reached on 17 aug.. also i know why they sent my file to LA
because i had visitor visa for canada from LA Consulate.. I strongly feel that this is the reason to move my file there..

I do not think that is the reason they transferred your file to LA. I too have visitor visa from LA office. My file has be transferred to New York. From previous postings, LA office is faster than others. Ottawa received my medicals on July 02. It does not make sense why Buffalo would transfer file at stage of the process. Does anyone has any idea how long NY office takes to process applications for someone who has done medicals in June/July? I hope they do not take another 3 months.

I sent all the additional documents, that included all police clearances, fees etc. And, they haven't requested any additional documents.
 
Cuterash & Freshstart

First of all nice to know there is movement across all the dates of the people who submitted medicals in July. Seems to be sign of things to come for the August and Sep folks.

Anywaz if you dont both mind ...could you share if you are located on the west coast of Usa ( might be an additional reason why your files got transferred to LA).Also did you send a complete package with unexpired FBI certificates at time of application.

Also good luck rest of the way.

Also from the dates of Jxy01,Cutierash,Freshstart and others

Files are approximately getting transferred 3 months from time of reaching of medicals to buffalo.

Exceptions.

1.If the file is caught up in a long background check this might not be true.
2.If buffalo is requesting additional documentation like expired FBI's etc etc .....

Manny yours probably will be up next as your medicals reached on July 15th (from your status ) .

Good luck bro . ;D Rest hang on this might be the best news in recent times .Sab ka number aayega

yeah now that the train started chugging along, maybe the may end and june applicants will get med request/aor .... this week/next week... really hoping so
 
I am planning to send my RPRF for me and my wife, along with new CA state clearance and the rejection letters i have been getting from the FBI. Do you guys think that will do it? because they requested new set of fbi record for me and wife, but i have been getting rejected over and over again.
please advise.
 
Hey JXYJ01,

Given that your file is transferred to NYC office, May I ask which state do you reside at? (NJ/NY/PA)?

Thanks

I reside in MO, I changed my address from Northern CA to MO after the medicals.
 
I hope I don't fall in exception 1! good possibility though, as I've lived in many countries. Fingers crossed.

Anyways, my family is traveling to India for vacation to see if they can jinx and jumpstart PPR :) Coz it is typical that when you are about to travel for pleasure that your passport becomes required for some other purpose !! :D

Best of luck to all.

Hi all

I got request of additional docs today (FBI, PCC and RPRF) . Unfortunately I send the copies of FBI and PCC at the time of application (March-02,2010). Should I send my expired FBI and PCC now (was not expired at the time of application) or should I apply for new docs.. which will take for ever again. I guess some of you were in similar situation before. Please advice

Thanks
