Now you will get an email from NDVO after 2 months.

We applied in Jan 2016 inside Canada, from Quebec. During summer Aug 2016 we got confirmation thru that they started processing the application. Followed by medical exam requirement. By end Oct 2016, they received medical exam results, and CIC then requested Police Certificate and CSQ (because we live in Quebec province) within 45days. We had to rush for the CSQ as usually the processing time is longer than that. Eventually CIC agreed to extend 60days for CSQ when we approached to the deadline. In early Feb 2017, we submitted CSQ. No response since then. From CIC online status, our progress stopped at end2016 when they received medical exam results...

Quebec files are processed differently I guess, compared to other provinces. No idea about that bud.

Ok but do you know what they usually do? What are the next steps?

see my timeline in signature column.My file first transferred to NDVO,then Ottawa and again to NDVO on December05 and with similar reply of hearing within 2 months but till date no updates.I applied in WEB Form probably on February08 but till date no reply. One probable reason for transfer I guess I requested to add my younger daughter name as Dependent who is 21 and took benefit of recent changes in definition of depedent.Till date there is no update regarding my daughter since Three months. Why your file is transferred any guess?

No I did not get any update from NDVO even after passing of more than TWO months.I think this sentence of TWO months is for formality.

okay thanks. Yes indeed..i do remember you saying this back in December.
Hopefully you will hear back soon.
the letter does say 2 months..so ideally it should be around that timeframe.

While I do not know the exact one, if your parents are in Canada, then it will be the free one otherwise it will be the paid one if they are outside Canada.

Thanks again. Yes they're currently in Canada. The 1st one is the free one. I will try to request now.
