So far today , you been accurate!!, ;)
On another day i would call you nostradamus!!!! Lol
Continue pridicting, if you're accurate in this one, i will confer on you the title at a service to be announced ha ha ha
Uhm... no. I am not Nostradamus. I didn't predict the end of the world. Only the end of CIC file processing. That's predictable by using: Current processing velocity (so, over the past few x (days, weeks, months) they've processed x (weeks, months)); knowing that they will have a general queue that will run first-in first-out (so folks around the same timeline will be processed together); the possibility of sliding up to a different date other than the general queue; cherry picking; they don't work on holidays (but they do work overnights); and that if you have all the evidence with your case it will be processed when they pick it up.

Also, knowing that if they make a request, they have to give the respondent 30 days to respond (and they add another 30 buffer). They won't check on a case unless they are urgently trying to get something to finish it quick.

There, I just made you a CIC-seer.

okay, that's good! Positivity all around... but it made me worried, I'm Sept 6 and no updates, no medical, just a April 10 PCC batch request... so... trying to be positive :D
Yeah no updates is a hallmark of CIC processing. @Cross99 had nothing and overnight seemed to gain a DM on both sides. Apparently an August 2016 applicant. SO, the *theory* is, they can cherry pick cases too. So if yours is complete enough, they could pick it...

I like that "hallmark" one! haha

Maybe, but keeping in mind my past, I don't think I'd be that lucky to have my case cherry picked. :)

Sloow yes. We too. But considering we only had one problem (medical), we did well at 13.5mos from app to landing. So it can happen that you are totally fortunate :).

yeah hopefully, thanks :)

Medical, problem as in? I didn't do an upfront medical, does that cause any delay?

BTW, I updated http://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/spousal-sponsorship-in-land-applications-2016-timeline-and-updates.389295/page-936#post-6120601 post with something you may find interesting.

In regard to document updates, you're not the only one here that has been asked to redo Sched A (5406). A nice young lady here with the the moniker ending in @browning911, and others have also been asked to redo. Once they have that, they can start the security screening process. That will take 3-6 mos. So, we are on time for the *possibility* that you could be finished that :). That's not required until they are ready to allow you to land though...

We did one before submission. It expired while the case was on the shelf. We were asked to redo it, when CIC was ready for it, because it was already 3 months invalid. We ended up delayed a month because of that (3 weeks waiting for an appointment; 1 week additional time to process and attach to the file).
