Tracking PNP July 2012 applications to Nova Scotia

If you guys are expecting PPR's anytime before March 2013, I am sorry but you're being too optimistic. With new processing times, the earliest you could get PPR's is May 2013, assuming everything goes down smoothly!

Hi guys,

Just wonder if the processing time mentioned on the AOR is accurate for you guys or not? for my case, I submitted my BC PNP application on Aug 14th and received my AOR on Sep 7th, I havent heard back from them since. they mention the processing time would be 8-10 weeks but this week is the 13th already and I still got on news from them.

my current work visa will be expire soon and my employer has been urging me about the result so that he can have sufficient time to rehire a new person in case my application is refused.

If anyone had the same situation before, please share on here. I am not sure should I apply for my work visa extension to buy some more time or what..

Any comments?

Thanks!!

Well because processing times changed out of the blue from 10 to 16 months. Also the shortages in the number of CIC employees contribute to the lengthier process. Therefore, if you do the math, our applications will not be finalized anytime before May 2013 at least!

What if not only cpp o process applications but also cio sydney does?
I believe you got mr from cio sydney and mentioned that all correspondence with cio. At this point have u checked the address of cio sydney? That's for fswp. as u know some parts of fswp is teporarily closed, then officers just have forced holidays for 6 months? I dont think so, they are processing pnp applicants. for the first time, i was doubt too, but as i saw june applicants started to get ppr and an excel sheet, i started to believe it and the nearest difference is ecas status. it is quite organized jus like the first step of the cpp o in 2011.

Thanks

My visa office is actually CIO Sydney. So what you're saying is there are June 2012 applicants that are actually getting PPR's right now?

Certainly. It seems from june applicants processing in cio sydney and cpp o is getting rid of backlog of 2011 applicants

Thanks

That would be amazing if true! I was checking trackitt.com and I found one applicant only who got his PPR after applying in June 2012. Is there another website to check applications timelines?

Here's my timeline for BC PNP:

BC PNP Class: Skilled Workers
BC PNP application submitted on: 08/19/2011
BC PNP file number received on: 08/30/2011
BC PNP approved on: 11/16/2011
PR application submitted on: 04/24/2012
PR file number received on: 05/16/2012
Acknowledgement of Receipt: 06/07/2012 (152 days ago)
Medical exam completed on: 06/21/2012

ECAS still showing as "In Progress" and medicals received.

Should I contact them as it's been over 120 days since my AOR?

I believe in my timeline, interaction, and response with cic.

I couldve gotten my PPR on Oct 2 instead of the request for answer corrections. They mention my application otherwise complete. I have faith and believe I am getting my PPR soon.

I still have no ecas update ... frustrating with 3 week delay because of the doctors office ... they should be aware when doing medicals that the timeline is what makes you chose which Doctor does your medical. I travelled to halifax from PEI which cost around $400 with the overnight stay for an earlier medical ... If I had waited for PEI doctor it would have been 3 weeks later so hence the same timeline as i have now but $400 would have not been wasted!

Good luck to all those that are now i process.

Well, roughly 5 months - but yeah I thought I would of had my PPR by now. Other people who applied within days of me had their PPR end of August/Early September and have already landed.

My AOR stated:

Processing time

Applications for permanent residence in Canada in the category that you have applied have a processing standard of 10 months. If you have not received any instructions from this office by 120 days from the date of this letter, you are requested to contact this office directly.

 

[stone8198]

well you should send an email to them asking about the update. I have the same email about standard processing time of 10months. but you can email them, because its mentioned if you don't hear anything in 120days you are requested to email directly and ask.

Good Luck,
