Hello, does anyone have experience on how long it takes for the COPR to arrive in Canada.
We changed our address Jan 22nd to a Canadian address and this was confirmed in email and on ECAS.
We received DM on May 26th so I know it hasn't been 2 weeks yet, but I can see a few people with Canadian locations processed through London, recovered there relatively quickly.

Any advice would be appreciated, we have just emailed London for confirmation.

Has anyone from LVO had a DM or any changes on Ecas lately? I can't find the spread sheet to see people's timelines. I know there's a thread for Pakistan via London but I think there are different processing times if you're not applying from Pakistan. Ideas? Anyone? Impatiently awaiting a DM!

Not that spread sheet... The one with the list of people and their timelines... The link in your signature just shows the processing time of the last 20 applicants/mean processing times :/

There are multiple tabs in the spreadsheets. Click "2016" to view the applicants from 2016, for example.

I'm not even going to pretend and say I ever saw those tabs there before! I swear I'm not thick! Thank you!

Post it all in this thread. As it states on the cover page of the spreadsheet (which you know well) the spreadsheet isn't open for editing (it used to be, but then some asshats decided to delete all the data and just write "boobs" everywhere)... so it was locked down with a few people designated as editors, and since then we've actually put a TON of work into making it readable and useful including graphs and averages and formatting and whatnot and, well, we don't trust the general public not to break it. :p

That's terrible!! So much work just for people to be completely disrespectful like that! I wouldn't trust people to edit it either!

My info for the spreadsheet sheet:
Application received in Mississauga: 26th Jan, 2016
Married
SA: 9th Mar, 2016
VO: London
In process on Ecas: 17th Mar

...so far, that's it! Here's hoping for a decision soon!! :)
