Hi. Here are my timelines.
We received your application for permanent residence on May 8, 2015.
We started processing your application on July 22, 2015.
Medical results have been received.
We sent you correspondence on February 1, 2016. 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.
I asked them if they can speed up the process because my work permit got refused and I am under restoration of status currently and this is what they replied:
An application is considered received on the date a complete application is received. Each application is date stamped on the date it is received at CIO-Sydney and processed in date received order. There is no “urgent” progressing.
