congratulations ..are you an inland applicant?
does cic extend medicals for outland applicants as well?
I am an inland applicant. I think they extend medicals for inland applicants and ask for medical renewal for outland applicants. I am not sure if it is a general rule though.

congrats.

One question to you. Had you not called them up in the last 2 months? Didnt you find your status.

If you had called, it would be strange for them to let you know they are still working on your application.
I did not call them nor did I sent them any emails. But, I am pretty sure they would say they are waiting for the officer to finalize my application if I had called them.

Dear All,

I have received my AOR on Feb 24, 2016. I am completing 10 months in 10 days. This is through Express entry. My husband had moved to Hong Kong on Feb 27th, 2016 on a workpermit and on Sep 2016 they had asked for a PCC from HongKong. It was sent by the HongKong police on Oct 7th, 2016. I sent the tracking number to NDVO. On November 1st week i came to know that they came for employee verification to my company HR and they refused to verify as its against company policy. However i have given Form 16 and other things that prove that i work there. Post that there is no response. For the past 10 months i have been living away from husband and kid. It is excruciating. Please advise what i can do about it to get their attention.

1)I have raised CSE
2) Have emailed
3)Raised 4 GCMS (No use)
have u tried calling cic? i think u can give that a try!

Go to your express entry account, click on the question mark next to the item "final decision", then you can see the status of your application.

FYI that I received that 4-6 weeks email too, since then, they asked me to redo medical check -> completed and passed on 16Nov2016. On 12Dec2016, my BG changed to in progress. Other than that, my account status is the same with yours.

I have sent email to ask SGVO for status of my account and their reply is the same as the one shown on my express entry account -> my application is at final stage of review by an officer.

No idea still when I can have their final decision.
So frustrating with this waiting with no idea when it comes to an end. Only hold on to the positive thinking that waiting mean hope is still there, better than receiving a refusal letter. Lol

Guys, what you see there (in the help section) is an indication of what all statuses that particular field can hold. It is NOT the decision on your application. Everybody sees this on their profile.

To break it down, let me put it this way - When you click the "?", what you see is an explanation of the various outcomes of the application. It means that either your application could be accepted OR rejected. Again, what you see there is NOT a decision. It is the HELP section, people. The final decision will change only after you have submitted passports to the VO. Please stop freaking out. What you see there is NOT the decision.

We have reached a final decision on your application.

RabinJi,

I recall having a discussion about this a few months ago. I recall telling you that what you see there is not the decision. It is just the help section that describes what values that particular field can hold.

Yes! for some cases they do, and I believe that's why Dreamcanada, and some other seniors here, got the golden email almost 9 months after his BG IP. This makes sense because CBSA says it does advise CIC on security between 9-18 months (less than 9 months for most of the cases).

I have crossed 12 months (AOR 12th December) - no updates from NDVO - Medical turned back to Not Need at This Time from Passed.

No replies from NDVO and Ottawa says your file is in progress, will update you if anything needed from my end.

Don't know what to do.
Today I sent an email to NDVO, Ottawa and Ministry of Canada in a ray of hope that I will get some update. I will keep my finger crossed and wait for the update.
