Hi All,

I've tried multiple times since the past few days but I'm unable to link my Parents Paper Application online. Can someone help me with this please??
:(
This is very common. There is no need to worry. I am May applicant and still not able to link my application. You can always check status online which is updated daily. If you really want to link your application, then send a request using webform with technical issue as subject line and add the screen shot of every field you are filling to link your application. Someone will contact you back in 5-7 business days.

Hi @robertp @YULIA-2016! Here are my updates

username: idefix
line: 194
IME completed: Oct 18, 2019
Biometrics Request: Oct 29, 2019
IME submitted: Oct 30, 2019
Biometrics completed: Oct 30, 2019

I used Panel Physician North York and I do not recommend it as they take too long (12 days for me) to submit the medical exams.

Thank you :)
Hello,
Quick question are your parents in Canada?
Where did you get biometrics done?
Thanks

My application to sponsor is In process. Checked my ecas got the following :
We sent you correspondence on October 28, 2019. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.

Haven't received any email.... Is it normal for them to send mail a few days after updating ecas ?
Wait till Friday else contact them on Monday. They might need more information.

Anyone has any idea, on where the things are, and basis on above scenario, when should I expect Biometrics, SA and PCC Request?
They are going to work on early June App/Sept 30 AoR soon. They got the most applications in last two weeks of May and that's why the processing time slowed down for early June app. My guess is, you can expect In process by end of next week.

Would you please share how long it took since you submitted your mom's report via webform ?
Hi there. We received the IME request on Sept 10th, I sent the medical report thru webform on Sept 17th, then on Sept 24th, we got acknowledgment that they received the webform inquiry and that they will forward it to LVO (CPC-M).

I again attached the medical report when I sent out the PCC/Travel History/Resume on Sept 30th.

Only showed up “Medical passed” today, Oct 30th. It took almost 1-2 months to show up on CIC account.

I guess as long as you submit your medical report before the 30days mark, you are good. That’s what the other guys in this forum told me, which is very helpful and gave me relief.

Good luck and all the best on your application!

Any progress from London visa office?

I noticed that for London visa office status of PR application doesnt change back to "in process" very quickly, If possible please share your PR application status as per ECAS.

The reason i am curious about your PR application status because you are the first person in tracker whose application went to london and if it is "In Process " then that means atleaat they are almost taking 3 months timeframe to even start working on our applications.
In my case, the PA side changed to application received when they sent the app to the LVO (Mexico) and it hasn't changed since that (August 22nd). Maybe it has something to do with the fact that we need to get the CSQ first and even if we got the SA, that only means we are approved on the federal side, but not on the provincial side until the CSQ is issued OR the other reason is that my LVO is universally known as a very slow one

Thanks @rinkupatel.dmj . As @fjle mentioned a ghost update is when you see the status in my CIC as "application profile updated" but truly no change to any other section. I had this update in myCIC on 25th, and next day ecas changed to "DM"
That means your file has been updated. Most probably your ecas will change to decision made tomorrow.
That is good news. That means you are going to get a DM for PA tomorrow !
I logged in to my cic today, under current status “profile updated” when i check full application “we are processing your background check”.
when will I get DM on PA? - i cant wait!!!
Thanks @ankz001 @fjle @nomadic who reported the mysterious "GHOST UPDATE" on myCIC followed by Principle Applicant's status being updated to "Decision Made" in eCAS after couple of days ago.

@snganu also witness the same "Ghost Update" update on his myCIC account followed by Principle Applicant's status being updated to "Decision Made".

I was requested by IRCC to submit PCC (INDIA) + Travel Doc + RCMP Fingerprinting Criminal Background check exactly 30 days ago i.e. 30-SEP-2019. I submitted all the additional documents on 12-OCT-2019.

Well it's my time now to share the similar behavior. I witnessed "GHOST UPDATE" today @ 10:00 PM EST on myCIC account.

Hope to receive some positive NEWS soon ... finger crossed...

FYI - @robertp @bdidol @laxsun - May be you wanna observe this pattern at CPC-M.

Its mentioned in SA letter that working of local Visa office is not affected by CSQ procedures and approvals.

Indeed London visa office is slowest. They requested 2018 applicants pcc and IME this year.

And I confirmed with 3 tracker Pakistan applicants of London visa office. They got their SA around end july and start aug. And their application status for PR is application received, "NOT IN PROCESS "

And those three are not from Quebec also.

You will get SA first and then IME, PPC, Bio in one way or other depending upon your application. Once every thing is done then you will get Passport request and DM. So except all this in you myCIC.
Thanks for the reply,
I got SA ALREADY. Also done medicals and passed in September , sent PCC VIA email also in September, no bio request yet as parents are here in Canada on Supervisa..

Hello,
Quick question are your parents in Canada?
Where did you get biometrics done?
Thanks
My mom has a SuperVisa and is in Canada for a couple of years but, coincidentally, she had just arrived in Brazil for a short trip when and we received the Biometrics letter so she completed it in Brazil

Guys, would you know how long it takes on average or how long it took for you to see Medical Received" in ECAS after the IME was submitted by the physician? Thank you :)

Hi there hopefully you get DM tomorrow, i have been asked the same documents last week. My question is how long did it take for RCMP fingerprints to get to the CPC-M. I sent all the requested documents the very next day but i am just waiting till they receive the Fingerprints. I have sent all the documents and in CIC it says the documents have been uploaded and We are processing your background check. Also my CiC still says you action required is there something to worry about ?

I've been checking the tracker for long time but now I'm starting to worry. My application was received on June 14th according to Canada Post but still haven't received the AOR. The CIC sends an email to both the applicant and the sponsor? Thank you in advance
