by the way, happy 14th month everyone lol
according to the agent i talked yesterday on the phone, you need to inform them when the processing time has passed.
the agents will request an update and at least they have a look at your file.
most likely they will say it's still in process but it's better than doing nothing.

14th month starts from when the application has been received in CPC-Ottawa office. Practically the day of our AOR. So 14 months from Jan/Feb 2014. This is based on some of the threads where the applicant had called the office to check the status and information given to them.

that's not what the call agent told me
as soon as i asked her about checking my file status, she asked me when the file was received
and then she was able to request an update.

don't wait another 2 month
just call
you have nothing to lose

This is something that CIC agents just made up to make us silent. According to their website it starts from when they receive the complete package.

This information is updated quarterly and shows the time it takes to process an application after we receive a complete application package based on 80 percent of all cases finalized between July 1, 2014 to June 30, 2015. Processing times are subject to change.

Here "we" refers to CIC, not CPC. So it starts from the day CIO-Sydney receives the package. CIC has been very consistent with this definition in the past.

CEC just made us everyone fool...

Same here... No update... I just called CIC and ask for an update about my application submitted in Sept 2014. He said, the immigration officers are waiting for the clearence of Criminal Background checks for bulk applications submitted in Aug/Sept. I also said, how come Express Entry applicants are getting it within 6 months and he replied he has no update but they are doing everything they can to process it fast. He also confirmed that there are no issues with our applications, its just he can't do anything... :(

This is true... All our notes says Criminality: In progress. Reason behind: no one knows except them :)

Can you tell me the number you dialed in :)
