I have a small hope that there is people at this forum who actually submitted their after-nomination applications through office in Moscow. If there is any one, could you share your processing time? According to CIC it's 18 months now and this number is killing me, I would like to hear real processing times from real people, please...

Meanwhile, how about processing times in other offices, are they really close to those shown at cic.gc.ca or in general its less?

THANKS!!

Hi I am May 2011 applicant of Moscow VO, i have done my medicals in May 2012...now waiting for passport request. It says that numbers based on 80% of applications, so hopefully it will be sooner than that. But from my experience Moscow office is pretty bad, in March they sent me a refusal letter, saying that I applied through Alberta PNP but now reside in Manitoba which is not true at all. I sent them an email right away saying that they made a mistake. They didn't even apologized for the mistake.
Please share your timeline.

Hello Lisa, unfortunately, we have no alternatives. I am from Russia and will have to submit my application through Moscow office. I am still at very initial stage of my process, I even don't have a job offer yet =) What province did nominate you? What country are you from? Do you think that after you did you medicals your passport will come soon?

Thanks for sharing=)

Hi fellow countrymans! ;)
You are welcome to see our spredsheet, there are lot of Moscow VO timelines. But don`t look at strategic stream as it has expedited process.
I got my LOA two days ago and ready 2 apply for PR.
Good luck!
