Been a silent reader for a while, wanted to update the forum as I spoke to a CIC agent today after 35 minutes of wait time, called around 3:30PM (Toronto time)

FSW-O (India)
AoR :12.09.2018
Meds:10.10.2018
IP2: 05.01.2019
RPRF paid on 04.01.2019
RPRF requested: 07.01.2019 (proof submitted on the same day!)

The agent told me the following:
Visa office: Ottawa
Eligibility: Recommended Passed
Criminality: Passed
Security: Not yet started
Background check: Still in process

No comments on the expected time of completion, was told that the 6 months period ends on blah blah blah...

Any insights please?

Hi guys, any insights please?? Raised a CSE form a couple of days ago, no revert on that... :mad:
What should I be expecting??
 
Hi everevone. Has somebody tried to call cic today? We are trying to but something goes wrong: after we choose a language we press 1 (to choose 'immigration') but nothing works. Are we doing something wrong?

AOR- Sep. 18

Last update - RPRF Oct. 31 (paid)

Hey.. Asking for a friend... We just wish to know if there is someone in a similar position.

AOR- 19-Sep-2018

Review of eligibility- We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements
Review of medical results- We are reviewing the results of your medical exam
Review of additional documents- We do not need additional documents
Interview- You do not need an interview. We will send you a message if this changes.
Biometrics- We do not need your fingerprints. We will send you a message if this changes.
Background check- Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.
Final decision- Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made

Medical comment changed after approximately 2 weeks of AOR, and there has been change in the application in the next 4 months.

Already ordered GCMS notes last week.

Also- once 6 months time period is up (54 days to go), will IRCC be required to provide us with a proper reason for lack of movement?
 
I succumbed and called IRCC again today. The agent told me that my application was approved on Dec 24th. :):rolleyes:
This time I remembered and asked about my visa office and it is Nova Scotia, Sydney. The agent said the reason why I have not received the email yet is because there is a lot of backlog and if I do not get an email by March 13th (6th month mark); call them again.

This is definitely some relief and we will assume March 13th for PPR and plan things ahead accordingly.

@Bandit Queen : I join your team! :D
