We received your application for permanent residence on March 29, 2012.
We started processing your application on August 1, 2012.
Medical results have been received. Sep 6, 2012.
A decision has been made on your application. The office will contact you concerning this decision. Jan 7, 2013

Not sure how to react ???


It means within 15 days person receive passport with mapel leaf..
 
Background:
Figures:--
• Number of files in 2008 (backlogs) – 640000.
• Number of files in November 2012 (backlogs) – 100000.
• Number of visas issued in FSW till December 2012 – 55000-57000*
• Number of visas issued in FSW till June 2012 – 43653*
• Number of visa to be issued in 2013 – 53500-55300*
• Till June, 2012, 17068 applications in MI-2 have been processed and total of 25189* visas issued
• Till June, 2012, 6663 applications in MI-3 have been processed and total of 4378* visas issued

* - Including Primary Applicant + Spouse + Dependent

Facts:--
• CIC expects to clear all files received till November 2012 (100000 applications) by end of 2014
• To clear backlogs from 2008, i.e. 640000 files, MI-1 was started on 28th February, 2008 – introduction of a occupation in demand list
• To clear backlogs in 2010, MI-2 was started in June, 2010. – introduction of CAP of 1000
• To clear backlogs in 2011, MI-3 was started in June, 2011. – reduction of CAP to 500
• To clear backlogs in 2012, Pre-February 27th, 2008 files were returned and a temporary pause was initiated to stop taking new applications..

Assumption:
• None of the MI-1 applicants have received visa in 2013, nor their e-cas updated to medical received/decision made from June, 2012.
• MI-2 and MI-3 on a constant basis have been given visa and e-cas updated every now and then.
• Total of 2932 and 3337 applications are pending for MI-2 and MI-3 respectively which still have a decision pending.
• If we assume that all the pending MI-2 and MI-3 application will be granted visas, then a total of approximately 18800 visas will be issued.
• Therefore 55300-18800= 36500 visas will be remaining for MI-1, i.e. around 12100 applications.


Conclusion:
Looking at the trend, first, they will process all the MI-2 and MI-3 applications. Then they will start with MI-1, that too who have already done their medicals and submitted passport. May be in the interim, simultaneously or after issuing visa to these MI-1 applicants, further medical requirements will be issued to other MI-1 applicants.
Purely based on the assumptions and facts, I guess that people who received their medicals in 2012 for MI-1 will eventually get their visas this year (not sure when exactly). People who further receive medical requirement till mid of this year will also have a bright chance to get visa this year. If medicals are not received till June/July 2013, then expect that visas will not be issued in 2013 and it will go to 2014 quota.
I am sorry for being the bearer of this not so pleasant news. But I know how everyone in this forum and otherwise feeling. One thing is for sure, they will process all these pending applications by 2014. So just be more patient and pray to god that he helps us see this through. I wish everyone a speedy process for their applications, may there be heavy downpour of visas and medical requirements for MI-1.

Dear Sumit,

So you deleted spam and also emptied the Trash, No worries Your NOC code and timelines are almost same as mine, I have yet to receive my MR, in all probability you would also not have received it, just to make sure please do the below three things :-

1. As suggested by amit u may send the case specific query to CIC.
2. You can apply for CAIPS (in your case it should be GCMS as per your timeline)- you get the response in 2-3 weeks max.
3. And for future create a filter in your mail account with your file number so that any mail containing your file number cannot be sent to spam or any other folder.

Best Of luck

Sunny


Hi Sunny,

Thanks a lot for your reply and suggestion. I have ordered the CAIPS/GCMS and I think it will take 3-4 weeks aleast to come.





So when we can expect the update for us ?

No point in sending an online inquiry OMG they would revert with a standard revert. Only best possible thing to satisfy the curiosity is to apply for CAIPS/GCMS.

Sunny

Last time it was in July /October /December 2012

Nothing changed,It was like getting three print outs
