Friends

I also applied from USA, AOR -- Sep 30
Still stuck in IP1.

I had a USA visa refusal which I mentioned about it in the application
Do you guys think this is causing my application to delay, even haven't received GCMS notes applied on DEC 21.

Any opinions ?
I am Sept 30 AOR. Still IP1.
 
Thank you for the info.
I took my photo on Sep 9, 2018 . Technically, it will be 6 month on March 9,2018. I plan to submit passport next week and hopefully, they should return my passport by mid Feb. Should I still take a fresh photo
Do you advice to call CIC agent or write to VO office?
I think taking fresh photo is not a big deal. I was im situation like you but decided to take fresh photo to avoid any potential delay.
Technically you are right, you can submit the same old photo. Calling may not help bcz they will refer you to download photo guidelines and follow it.
 
Hello Everyone,

I just have 44 days to go and still in IP1 stage. AOR date: September 17th 2018. I ordered for GCMS notes about 2 weeks back. Anyone still in the same boat as me?

Also I do believe its too early for me to raise a case specific inquiry. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.

Thanks a bunch,
Vasant

hello there,
My case is same as yours. Most of the people around our AOR are still stuck in IP1. I’m sure our files will move this month in feb.
 
Yes m also in same boat. AOR sep 16th. You can always raise a CSE i don think its too early though their reply does not provide much clarity on status as such. I raised a query last week and reply was your docs seems in order and received by Case Officer in New Delhi.
Any particular reason your file is moved to NDVO? Did you raise any ADR? Any previous visa rejection?
 
I can't believe i received my gcms note generated 02/01 january and NOTHING started. There is even no A11.2 Check.


Now i am definitely suspecting 2 things:

Francophone applications are slow

Or always ordering GCMS notes make the process go slow.
I think it's neither the case. Can you share your notes and I'll try to help.

You have a different looking progress bar.
 
All RIght. I was just checking if there is a pattern since I didn't choose to pay it upfront, something I regret now. Let's hope June is just a safe estimate and it gets done way before that.
I have diarised to call ircc again on 15th Feb for a last update and if still nothing has progressed I will just carry on with the routine until one day THE mail lands in my inbox

they usually don't give much details. it's better to order gcms notes.
 
Thing is I am from Mauritius and I do not think I can order gcms notes unless I am in Canada or us. Is that correct?

Aha! Perfectos. Thank you so much. Gcms notes will definitely be ordered!
 
raised CSE few days ago and got a generic reply..

The responsible office is currently verifying if your application meets the eligibility requirements under the immigration program for which you have applied, you may be contacted via your account if additional information is needed.

The background verifications are not in process yet.
(although my profile was updated to BG in progress in early Jan)

does this mean that there's any RR for eligibility or it's simply in progress?

Thanks!
