Sponsor:
Started processing April 30, 2015
Correspondence sent re decision May 29, 2015

Permanent residency:
Started processing June 3 2015
Decision made November 19, 2015

I'm not sure what the decision IS yet, but they've made one without sending any correspondence yet, anyone have experience of this?

They requested further info mid October re intent to relocate to Canada if PR is granted, worth noting as a comment.

Thanks! I think I'm done here! I hope!
Congrats to you . Hoping I'm next since I'm before you, typical London and to the remaining 2014 people especially Taffy and Andrew who keep getting messed around constantly

GISGeek and art4London, spreadsheet updated, congrats. Let us know when you receive COPR so we can fill in that last column on the spreadsheet. :)

(And once again, huge kudos to andrew-brit for holding down the fort the past 4 months as I've barely been around! Am trying to get back into it, just balancing it with an infant who only takes very short naps!!)

It has now been 11 weeks since my permanent residence application went in process, and it has been 8 weeks since I got a request for list of countries visited.

Total time to date since applying 430 days.

I was told 2 weeks ago my application is being reviewed by an officer but it is not in the final stages of review.

I have 2 job offers on the table, both waiting for me to get PR.

I am over this.

Understandably so ! this process is so very trying on all aspects ... I still have yet to receive a response as if the ACRO dated December 2014 was sufficient for them to at least start processing again. I am so frustrated not being able to get a clear response ... and now no response. Tempted to start sending them an email daily ... but I know it wont do me any good

Please provide the following if you would like to be added to the spreadsheet:

-Date application received in Mississauga
-Whether you applied as Married or Common-Law
-Date of sponsor approval
-Which office is processing Phase 2 of your application (will say on your sponsor approval letter/email)
-Date the permanent residence status changed to In Process on ECAS
-Date(s) of any other requests you've had
-Whether or not the principal applicant is non-visa exempt (if non-visa exempt) provide the applicant's nationality
-Current location of the principal applicant- closest major city is fine if you don't want to be too specific!
-Date of medical exam


Thanks,
Andrew

Does anyone know that if the PA is in Canada changes the COPR print location? I'm just wondering if they printed them within Canada for those waiting it out here or if they all come from London. Cheers :)

I'm not entirely sure I get what you mean, but if it helps, I was living in the UAE when I submitted my application so I was processed out of ADVO. I've since moved to Canada and sent my passport copies and photographs to Ottawa for my COPR.

I'm currently in Canada, so I was wondering if London have printed my COPR or if Ottawa/somewhere else has. I haven't had to send any additional info/docs. Just curious is all!
