There are two possibilities. One is very positive the other possibility could either be neutral or negative from a timeline standpoint.
The positive and probably likely scenario is based on your timeline. Nov 6th applicants or thereabouts are between IP and PPR. PPR (for inland applicants) is ALWAYS issued by Ottawa. For all inland applicants, files are eventually transferred to Ottawa to issue PPR. It is not out of place for your file to be transferred around this stage. I'll be worried if your file was transferred let's say .... a month ago. When files are transferred prior to the finalization of processing stage, a second scenario (which can cause delays) may be in play..
Neutral / Negative Scenario - If files are transferred to Ottawa earlier than normal, there are two things that usually drive that
1) Quality Audit - CIC picks up applications randomly (may 1%) and performs a quality audit on the job of the case processing officer and the provincial nominee process. In certain cases when CIC senses misconduct in the nomination process of a province, all nominees from that province are audited and are all delayed (this was the case with OPNP recently)
2) Complex case - Sydney processing officer are trained to process cases that are fairly straightforward. When are Case processing officer deems an application complex for any reason, he or she has two options.
Option A - for the grey area type of complexity, the process suggests seeking the opinion of another case processing officer without referral to Ottawa. The second processing officer reviews the issue in question and makes a verdict, if it is positive you continue in Sydney with very minor (unnoticeable) delays. The review by the second officer is logged in your file notes.
Option B - Is to refer to the file to Ottawa. In many cases, this causes significant delays. For cases such as this, you may reference the September 2014 forum pg 168 and 167 (usernames of "Need Canadian PR" & "Hamid Khan") - Both are September applicants, they have confirmed their cases / files have been transferred to Ottawa (earlier than the norm - prior to IP) and are still stuck at application received. it is a fact now that their cases have been delayed on account of the file transfer.
To end on another positive, if a level 1 case processing officer deems an applicant to be complex and transfers it Ottawa, the Ottawa officer may review it and disagree on the complexity. In this instances, this can be positive...you can go straight from IP to DM as your file is already in Ottawa and PPR will be issued once the verdict in made on the issue in question.
