Tracking PNP November 2012 applications to CIO Nova Scotia

[ravi1981]

In my case they took about 2 or 3 days to reply. But my communication was not regarding the status of my passport,

Thanks

Hi sarayu.....they took atleast 20-25 days to reply me back on two occassions.

Thanks Kavy, Harman, Karn and Ravi. I will wait for a couple more days and give a call to my representative. Usually, they will intimate me immediately upon receiving any communication from VO.

Thanks,
Sarayu.

For me they took 2-3 days most of the times and I did almost 10-14 correspondence with them during last many months.

Hi Aman i had a chat with him....actually his case was complicated as he applied for his wife's open work permit in chandigarh but after a month or so he got his PPR so he contacted chandigarh visa office to withdraw his wife's passport but when asked why he wanted to withdraw the passport he told them the whole situation then the chandigarh visa officer contacted with ottawa and told him that the officer from ottawa would contact him regarding the case and then the visa officer from ottawa contacted him and told him that he will co-ordinate with the chandigarh visa office to facilitate the visa for his wife at the chandigarh visa office itself. This is how his contact with the visa officer happened by luck. Otherwise its almost impossible to contact a visa officer by your own choice.

Hi Kavy,

Thanks for your reply. I have also applied for my wife's work permit online (so haven't submitted a passport), but just last week when they did not reply to our work permit app for 5 months, I applied for her vistior visa and this time they have the passport. I really hope that they either give her a visa or keep the passport till PPR, so I can request for the same option.

Thanks again!

Aman

Hi all, i just discovered this forum. My Ontario PNP application was also submitted back in Nov 2012. No words on the outcome yet. My employer is paying for the whole process and the immigration adviser, can someone recommend a good immigration adviser for me to seek some independent advice? thanks.

Hi pliu18,

Looks like your employer has already appointed an immigration adviser, so why do you need again an immigration adviser? I am just curious to know. I have a representative for my process and if you want I can provide you their info. I am paying out of my pocket for my representative.

Can you please let me know your complete time lines so that I will add you to the track sheet. You can take a look at the track sheet from my signature just for reference.

Thanks,
Sarayu.

Hi Sarayu,

I don't have the exact dates for my timeline because everything was through the immigration lawyer. Here's a rough timeline: application received on Nov 15th, medical requested on 16th Jan, medical completed around early-Feb, additional RCMP police clearance requested on april 2nd and completed in mid april. Since then, i haven't heard anything and my immigration lawyer is not the best in keeping me informed (my employer pays them not me).

my agreement with the immigration lawyer is that they will always act in the best interest of my employer, rather than me. but i wanted to know if changing employers will affect my federal PNP process? will i have to reapply again, maybe under the canadian experience class or a new PNP all over again? thanks.

Hi pliu18,

Thanks,

Got it Sarayu, thanks. I couldn't PM you back, maybe because I am newbie and I can't PM people. Yes, I am already in Canada, been working here since Jan 2012.

Okay...and I also think you may not be able to send PM unless you have 10 posts from you. Good luck my friend.

Hi guys
Received my gcm notes.
Everything else except medical says "not started". But date updated is January 25th 2013 except the medical results. It says the due date of everything is Jan 2014.

 

[ravi1981]

Hello Karn

Can you please confirm if your file is with Ottawa or Other Visa Office ?

Thanks

 

[karn]

Hey Ravi
It says primary office Ottawa and secondary offices are CIO and Detroit.
Its weird.

Hi Karn,

I am just comparing my GCMS notes with your's. Pretty much similar. In my case also almost nothing has started as of May 24, 2013...this is the date when my GCMS were generated.

I think Jan 2013 is the date of creation of your file. So, what's the date of GCMS notes generated? You can see this date at the very end of each page.

In my case assigned to, assigned by and due dates are blank....so, I don't know buddy what's going on with our files.

Thanks,
Sarayu.
