Has anyone been able to track your passport processing on the VFS Global website? Everytime I click on the link to track my application, it's always "Server not found" :-?

I can understand....waiting is quite difficult but we don't have any other option.

Just tried the Singapore site and was able to open the tracking page successfully:

Hi Guys, i don't really know what is going on here. I submit my EE profile at Sep 28 and got AOR at same time. here is my status

Application status: We received your application. We will send you a message when there is an update or if we need more Review of eligibility We are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirements.
Review of medical results: You do not need a medical exam. We will send you a message if this changes.
Review of additional documents The additional documents you provided are being reviewed.
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 Not applicable.
Final decision Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made

It,s been a month and nothing change. I was under EE BCPNP, and CRS 979. Can anyone let me know how long i may wait?

If this status was changed today..expect within 2 -3 more working weeks under FSW for PPR

Hopefully this status will change to IP2 till this Friday..post which you get your PPR

This is the default status after eAPR, i.e., NA1, not NA2.
Note that the medical is not passed yet, and the overall status is "we received your application" instead of "we are processing your application". I'd say that there is still a long way to go for OP.

"we received your application" means that nobody at CIC has touched the application yet. As soon as R10 check starts, it will change to "we are processing your application".

Hi All,

I am writing to check with people like me who have send Passports to Ottawa Office after getting the PPR email. My passport was received by the CIC office on 20th October, Anyone else sailing in same boat? I would like to know if you have seen any updates or received any acknowledgement email or processing details from CIC? As I did not get any so far.

Please share you experiences.

Thanks,
Rose.

Hi Guys,

Starting thread for those who have AOR in September 2017 - please join for discussion and knowledge sharing.

There is already a watsapp group for September AOR - please leave a request (dont share number, just a request saying: add me to watsapp) and i will send you an invite link.

Below I will post some information which you may find useful going forward.

Some FAQ:

Q: How to find my visa office?

A: Send E-mail to: CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca
Subject: E000xxxx - Visa Office
Body of the mail:
Hello,

I am trying to find out in which Visa office my application is being processed?

Application number: E000xxxx
Date of Birth: 19xx-xx-xx
Last Name: xxx
First Name: xxxx
UCI: -
Category of Immigration: Federal Skilled Worker

Q: Can you explain background status changes (by other forum member, not my):

A: Background statuses explained:

There are two different things. Application status remains in process until we complete stamping.

Regarding BG status - It will go through different stages and let me try to make it clear to you to avoid any further confusion.

Prior to March 7, CIC used to maintain the below BG status.

1. Not needed at this time (NN)
2. Not Started (NS)
3. In Progress (IP)

After March 7, they paraphase the above status as follows.

1. Not Applicable (NA) ( Old Status :: NN)
2. Next to step to conduct BG Check (NBG) (Old Status : NS)
3. In Progress (IP)

People in the threads are using the above status interchangeably. So, don’t get confused.

Now as far as BG process is concerned, it will go through the below trends. I’m using new status words for your reference.

Trend 1: NA -> IP -> NA -> IP
Trend 2: NA -> NBG-> NA-> IP

Some people who are submitting RCMP along with eAPR follows Trend 2 and rest Trend 1. I may not be 100% accurate. But this is what I noticed for CEC Inlanders.
Once the applicant at IP(2), he can expect PPR anytime soon.

Regarding at what stage BG will change??

STAGE 1:: After we submit our application, the BG status would be NA and it will be there until we see a change in Medical status (Passed).

STAGE 2:: After medical update is done, then agent at CIO will change our BG to IP or NBG. Then, he will start R10 check, Criminal checks.

STAGE 3:: After the above checks are done, then he will change BG to NA and our file moved to next stage for Eligibility assessment (A11.2) . Once he/she feels that we are meeting the Eligibility then he/she will provide his/her recommendation to Visa Officer and initiate the Security Clearance. At this point only our file will be moved from CIO to CPC.

STAGE 4:: Officer at Local Visa Office (LVO) will review the recommendation, Security clearance reports. Once he/she satisfies then he/she will approve the recommendation. Then our BG will be changed to IP again. This is where PPR(Passport Request) mails triggered to applicants.

I will post more as we progress.

Thanks!

Hello Andy. Could you please send me the group what’s app link.
