Solimane, you are under NOC 2173 right? I'm also under IT category. Are they processing MR request based on NOC?

Guys, anybody with AOR from 2016 received MR???

This is my GCkey info:
Application/profile status: Open
Review of eligibility: Review in progress
Review of Medical results: Not needed at this time
Review of submitted documents: (empty)
Scheduling an interview: Not needed at this time
A background check is needed: Not Started
Final decision: Not started


It's been 6 months in my case waiting for medicals, I thought maybe they are doing background check, that's why so long, but they haven't even started!
Wake up ADVO!
I received UCI in Dec. 2015 and still waiting for MR, very strange and don't know how long I have to wait more?

Did they start your background check?
Have you been adding documents after submission of your application? any of the above can be causing a delay..

However your VO is in London, as I can see, weird that it takes that long.

They don't start my background check.
I am Saudi based applicant so I assume my VO is LONDON, it may be ADVO. Early Jan 2016, I send my new passport copies then mid of Jan, I requested to correct my one of kid name.
After this complete silence.
I send CSE to know the status and below reply I received:
We have forwarded the information you provided to the responsible office. They will contact you only if they require further information.


Don't know what they will do with me

Just got a response from ADVO to my enquiry:

This is in response to your recent email enquiry.

The file remains in the active processing queue. At this time we are unable to provide any specific timeframes as to when this application may be finalized. Please note that files are processed on a first-come-first-served basis.

We trust that this information will be of assistance.


ACTIVE PROCESSING?! Nobody opened the case for 6 moths.. very active..
There are ppl who are waiting for MR from Oct-Nov 2015.. it's so frustrating..
If anybody gets medical, let us know,please.. Good luck to everybody!

Same GCKey status as yours been waiting for MR for 6 months. WoW! It only means we have to wait for few months I guess.. They have to consume the 15 months processing time for PNP.

Does any body know, what is the period you can land within, is it before visa expiration date or within one year of Medical Exam,
You are correct "either of both", any one that comes first.

Thank you for this information ,

Did any body got similar respond from ADVO when asking for status , I have been waiting for PR visa since I paid my PR fees on February about 7 months now, that is the latest respond I got now, any idea why the background check is delayed, the GCMS report has (1) next to Criminality, but still (0) next to Security I ordered already 2 GCMS notes, I also ordered Security report last month from the same lawyer but still haven't got it yet.

any body has the same time line and lived in Qatar, I guess qatar delaying their respond for background check, it took months to get Police Certificate from them

any body lives in Qatar or lived in their, can you share your time line , Thanks

Please be informed that your file is currently undergoing background checks
Background checks are carried out by third parties and as such we are not in a position to provide concrete timelines for finalization of the case.
I received my passports yesterday with Visa Stamped. My medical was completed in April 2016. Them they requested more documents.
By the way, I did medical twice, once in April 2015 and again in April 2016

Hello Solimane
I am still waiting for the MR. Any update on your file?
I think they are giving the least priority to the IT related NOCs and not processing on the basis if First come first served basis. What do you think?
