a quick suggestion: would you be able to sort out the table in the ascending order of application sent?

Hi,

I'm in Toronto on a closed work permit since Aug. 2012. I applied for FSW arranged employment category on Sept. 11, 2012. I received AOR Nov. 7, 2012 and my credit card was charged on Nov. 4, 2012. I understand the next step is the medical exams, but I haven't received the request yet. Does anyone know when that should be?

Thanks,
M

VO

:

Visa Office. For processing times, see [url=http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm/skilled-fed.asp]"Processing times for federal skilled worker applications" on CIC website

. CIC explained that "Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) calculates processing times from the day CIC receives an application to the day it makes a decision on the application.". More details can be shown in Help Centre on CIC.
PER	:	Positive Eligibility Review - An email which shows your file number and so on. It will be sent from CIO if your application passes the initial eligibility review. See the other thread titled "What is PER", a senior's website or this pic for more details.
AOR	:	Acknowledgment of Receipt - An email which informs that your full documents have been received by visa office and has been put in queue for processing. Sometimes this is called "2nd AOR" or "Waiting letter" ; In this case, "1st AOR" means "PER". See the other thread titled "what is 2nd AOR" for more details. You can also see the 2nd AOR from Vienna Visa Office (Thanks Doni!)
MR	:	Medical Request - An email (or a regular mail) that requests you to take medical exams. It might be included in the Initial Assessment.
PPR	:	Passport Request or Confirmation of Permanent Residence - An email (or a regular mail) that requests you to send VO your passport. If you are a citizen of the countries or territories listed in CIC website, you probably receive a "Passport Request". If you are from the visitor visa exemptions country, you maybe receive a "Confirmation of Permanent Residence" instead of the passport request and then you can go landing directly and immediately.
Links	:	What happen after PER? - Helpful information by seniors though it's little old.

Nice to see you eelmaba

I think it depends on your visa office. Which visa office did you choose?
If the New Delhi visa office is yours, I guess you will receive the medical request within 3-4 months as seniors did so.

Btw, can I add your timeline into our table?

Thanks and good luck!
Mysteaka

eelmaba · Mar 10, 2013

Thanks Mysteaka. My visa office is Ottawa. I just realized that there's a difference between AOR and PER. I mentioned AOR in my previous post, but I think it should be PER since it's the first email I received from Sydney indicating my file number and the visa office my file was directed to.

When you say 3 to 4 months, is that from the PER date?

I like the table idea. Please include my data as well.

Thanks,
M

VO

:

Visa Office. For processing times, see [url=http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/perm/skilled-fed.asp]"Processing times for federal skilled worker applications" on CIC website

. CIC explained that "Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) calculates processing times from the day CIC receives an application to the day it makes a decision on the application.". More details can be shown in Help Centre on CIC.
PER	:	Positive Eligibility Review - An email which shows your file number and so on. It will be sent from CIO if your application passes the initial eligibility review. See the other thread titled "What is PER", a senior's website or this pic for more details.
AOR	:	Acknowledgment of Receipt - An email which informs that your full documents have been received by visa office and has been put in queue for processing. Sometimes this is called "2nd AOR" or "Waiting letter" ; In this case, "1st AOR" means "PER". See the other thread titled "what is 2nd AOR" for more details. You can also see the 2nd AOR from Vienna Visa Office (Thanks Doni!)
MR	:	Medical Request - An email (or a regular mail) that requests you to take medical exams. It might be included in the Initial Assessment.
PPR	:	Passport Request or Confirmation of Permanent Residence - An email (or a regular mail) that requests you to send VO your passport. If you are a citizen of the countries or territories listed in CIC website, you probably receive a "Passport Request". If you are from the visitor visa exemptions country, you maybe receive a "Confirmation of Permanent Residence" instead of the passport request and then you can go landing directly and immediately.
Links	:	What happen after PER? - Helpful information by seniors though it's little old.

Thanks Mysteaka. My visa office is Ottawa. I just realized that there's a difference between AOR and PER. I mentioned AOR in my previous post, but I think it should be PER since it's the first email I received from Sydney indicating my file number and the visa office my file was directed to.

When you say 3 to 4 months, is that from the PER date?

I like the table idea. Please include my data as well.

Thanks,
M

Thanks for the information about AOR and PER

I'm afraid, I meant "3 to 4 months from the day I posted my previous message" and it's the case of New Delhi.

Regarding to CPP-O, we have to wait much longer.
I don't know how long should we wait for MR, but according to another posting ( http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/may-2012-applicants-t103642.0.html;msg2106414#msg2106414 ), an application filed in May 2012 is still untouched. I think it means CPP-O didn't start processing for May 2012 applications yet... so probably ours aren't started yet either.
I read some other threads, and it seems that CPP-O is currently processing for 2010 - early of 2011 applicants whose files are transferred from Buffalo.

Fingers crossed for all of us!

Can we change it now?? after PER? i dont think so. I wish i could

eelmaba · Mar 11, 2013

I don't think it should take years for Ottawa office to complete the whole process. Ottawa processing time is currently 15 months on CIC for applications received on or after June 26, 2010. It's 30 months for application between Feb. 27, 2008 and June 25, 2010. Anything before Feb 27, 2008 would have to wait until infinity

This means we should have the PR before end of 2013 if I understand this correctly.
