May i ask about that yatra website?did you use it before?is it better than sky scanner and kayak for ex?

Yatra.com is a reputed website in India. I have used it many times before and they provide you with one of the best deals. I compared the cheapest price of Skyscanner with that of Yatra.com and found out that Yatra's deal with 10% off was the cheapest of all. Never did I use Kayak. So, I have no idea about it.

Will have to check the due dates later and let you know because didnt pay much attention but i believe i passed final eligibilty on 3-7 of july around a week before ip2 during the na2 phase,will double check and let you know

Thank you Wolverine.

Hey mate,

Could you please correlate the notes with the dates like MP, IP1, NA2, IP2? I am more interested to learn when you got the IP2 and what is written in your notes. I am still not clear on when the IP2 happens? Is it when the visa officer (senior guy) approves the application? Means if the guy has got the IP2, is there a chance of rejection/refusal?

I am sure as our friend Wolverine has already helped and will let us know more details and add weight to the building evidence, i think Ottawa is issuing IP2 to approved files.
Also GCMS are corroborating IP1 etc. changes to actual CIC work done at those specific times that we were predicting.
As for your worry i just wanted to share something, from number of cases i am seeing and studying it seems that for Ottawa candidates IP2 is issued when all checks are passed by the Visa Officer as file is ready for approval or already approved. They are delaying PPRs to approved files, so I think there is nothing to worry about rejection at this stage for you. But obviously our mind can never be sure till we get the PPR.
The cases where IP2 is started when Visa officer looks at the file again to do final checks again, are at local visa offices, and here we have some cases of cruel rare rejections in IP2. So I think you will be fine my friend, take my word for it.

Mr. Phonsa,

What's the take for today? Will it rain or not?

Can't say mate, I definately want a rain. But looking at the trend of last week, not sure. Though things have improved in this week with 36 PPRs which signifies that CIC is definately back on track. We will see, there are quite a few folks (we know) on IP2 and approved status but no PPR. Ideally they should be sending out the PPR requests. Let's hope for the best.

Nice! I am planning to land in Toronto as well. As for ticket, I have already booked mine with British Airways for the month of October. If you want to get a good deal, you might want to check out Yatra.com post mid-night until 6AM. They have this scheme going on wherein you could get flat 10% off on any international flight booking priced over Rs. 30000.

As for accommodation, I am looking at a place through AirBNB on temporary basis. Could you suggest which area in Toronto would be worth staying in? Also, do you reckon I should be able to finalize any house-share deal in 4-5 days' time?

Indeed, we shall all get together for an awesome party to celebrate our success

Wow that was a very valuable information, thanks really. I was always planning to get British Airways.
I am a going to Brampton of course (the punjabi destination and have family there), But I have heard Scarborough is also good! Largely depends on where you feel you will have more chances to secure a job in your field i think. Actually as much knowledge i have gathered it all depends on whether its the beginning of month or end, middle is difficult of course. I suggest if you have friend/relative there, you look houses for rent here online, shortlist and ask a friend to have a look for you and final the payments, you can always change later. This way you will have a house as soon as you land.

Let me have the PPR first.... Couple of plans - In the beginning of November...if my manager releases me in two month's time frame. As such I have three months notice period. Second is around March end/April first week...after my kid's exam.

Ok so this to answer your questions,i checked my notes again and thats what i found in correspondence with the background check statuses:
1-my eligibilty passed 7 days before i reached my ip2 status

2-criminality and medicals were done at sydney before application was sent to ottawa

3-ip2 was one day after my application got approved

4- na2 was the 2nd day after my file transfer to ottawa

5-my application was recommended to pass 9'days before it was approved.
Hope that helps

Hmmmm lovely.
And for PPR its is yours in next 10-15 days maximum I believe, June files are not much stranded in IP2 as April and May folks. Hope it holds true. Good luck
