I applied as self-employed, as I was co-founder in the company. As such my salary was not fixed but variable. Hence it was flagged for further review. Apart from this variable salary part everything was straight forward.

Mine is similar case.. have texted u details.

Hi everyone,

So my profile got updated and says Final Decision - Approved.

But I also got a letter for Medical Surveillance Undertaking. I don’t understand, I’m already inland... I also took two X-rays 6 months apart and the immigration doctor cleared me. Why do I have to get checked again within 30 days of “landing”?

Any experiences here?
 
Hi Guys,

I have finally received passport request.
Here is the timeline
AOR 6th Sep 2018
Medicals Passed 28th Sep 2018
Ordered GCMS notes on March, everything seemed alright.
Security Criminality was pending.

I would like to ask you guys, i am wondering if you know how much time they give to enter the country?

My medicals expiring on Sep 28 and i was not asked for remedical?

My concern is that they will ask to enter before that date which would make it hard for me to organise everything.
Thanks in advance and all the best to everyone!

The way IRCC process its application is weird day by day ..
It is hard to predict their timeline, information and decision making process these days..
Feel lucky that you see progress with your application and do what they ask you to regarding medical and anything else.

Our goal here is to get by the tedious processing delay and finally reach the place so we can start out life from scratch again - hoping for a better tomorrow..

Anyways good luck - hang in there - get the requests from ircc done..

Hoping to hear about the ppr email from you soon

Hey mate,

I got the PPR and have sent in my documents. I believe my application is now approved and my COPR will be sent soon.

The medical surveillance is something I do after I get the COPR stamped. It’s just strange because I’ve done two X-rays and I’ve lived in Canada for the last 14 months on a work permit.

There has been a recent update on my file. When I logged into the portal, it said 'Application Updated'. However, I did not receive any email notification for this application update. On the application status page, I noticed a change in 'Background Check' status.
From - 'Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start your background check.'
To - 'We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.'

Would you know what this change represents? How many more hoops should I expect to jump before PPR?

My Timeline for reference:
AOR Sept 2018
Med Pass Oct 2018
No updates after that. Generic reply from WebForm - 'Your file is under review by officer ... '
My 1st GCMS request has crossed 3 months, and 2nd GCMS was filed 3 weeks back. No updates on either.
 
Is it normal to be in IP2 before clearing Medical exam?
AoR 26-April 2019
BG changed to “We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information.” on 15 May 2019
MEP-6 June 2019
Biometric request 6 June 2019
Biometric completed 8 June 2019
No ADR
No interview required

I just called them
agent said

security not started
he will send a message to the visa visa office not the officer asking for updates
