No I haven't. And I don't trust the google spreadsheet that is circulating. As I am sure at least one person from Vancouver who is not on this forum would have received it.
Also I don't get the new update which says you don't need a biometrics if you have given biometrics in the last ten years. Does that include study\work permit! But my application did not see any movement since the time I gave the RCMP document back in March

@Magnolian Let me know if you hear from anyone about Van biometrics SC call. I will let you know if I hear something.

Hi, I am glad I have met you online
Let's keep in touch on this web forum. I will let you know if I hear anything, or I get the SC call, and you do the same, please.

Have you checked if your biometrics has been expired on their website? I checked mine, and it says that they can not find
any info about me, and I guess that means I still need to get the biometrics done. I had study/work permit in last 5 years, I don't remember if
I have done biometrics for those.

My application hasn't been updated since Feb 26, which was my medical. It seems like no one has touched it yet since then.

Yeah Sure. That sounds good!

I just checked my biometrics status and it says the same for me. Didn't even know it existed.
Anybody else wondering how to check it here is the link.

[kavish.shaikh1]

Knowing that you are not the only one waiting, surely eases some stress. We are all going to make it.

Hi @legalfalcon @caipsnotes ,

Seeing the applicant's progress here (a lot of Feb AOR files are yet to be touched by Officers for Ottawa VO) , what can be the reason that April, May AOR people are getting COPR ( Especially from Ottawa Vo) and our files are stuck without any reason?

Thanks

Hi. Nothing wrong with contrasting your timeline with others. Here is what IRCC has to say right now about this;

Due to the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), IRCC can’t

• process applications normally
• provide accurate processing times

IRCC is prioritizing applications from

• Canadians returning to Canada
• vulnerable people
• people who perform or support essential services

@caipsnotes @legalfalcon - hey guys was wondering if someone works for the BC public service and their work is considered essential services is the application considered a priority? https://www2.gov.bc.ca/gov/content/...rovincial-support/essential-services-covid-19

If you are referring to the PR applications, for someone who works for the BC public service, the answer is no.

Anyone who is already in Canada, their application for a PR is not a priority. Applicants who work in essential services and who have applied for a work permit to come to canada, family reunification, or Canadians stranded abroad are priority. However, if the applicant has applied for a WP renewal, then the application will be a priority.

At the same time, IRCC has now established Rapid Response Operations Centre RROC to process the application for specific NOCs and for applicants whose WPs may be expiring and their PR application is concluded, the RROC can pick such applications or expedited processing. Many GCMS notes have notes by RROC.

See the entire COVID program delivery instructions here:https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...ins-manuals/service-delivery/coronavirus.html

When you read a notification or a policy, read it in entirety. Just selectively picking up things does not help.

hi there, just wanted to share with you all that I got my Copr on Oct. 5th. I am FSW outland applicant. The Copr says it is valid till Feb 24th, 2021 (one year from the first medical exam), however one letter in the envelope also says I can't travel to Canada right now unless I got the ETA. My plan is to wait a bit longer see if the boarder opens or travel restrictions will loose a bit. My case indicates IRCC is slow but they are still issuing copr to outland applicants. I am currently in China and the covid is under control, VFS and consulate are back to work since March. I also know a few others from China with AOR in Feb received ppr and copr recently.

Congratulations! Do you know what will happen if you cant go before february 2021? Is there a possibility to extend your COPR's validity?

I Have raised a webform once and it was a generic reply.Being optimistic I always feel that GCMS Notes would take a month and meanwhile I will get PPR/COPR Hence Never raised it or probably not much keen to go for it.

I would be much obliged to have some light on my timeline from collegues and Senior like @legalfalcon.

Thanks a lot in advance.
