Hi All,

Finally got portal mail just now

Cec?

 

[Mahersa]

Thank you and congratulations to you as well!

Good to read about a similar case. When I raised the initial webform about adding a dependant they directed me to submit the documents through a webform (and not directly to a VO). Looks like you went from submitting the documents to seeing dependant in your application in less than a month. I submitted them on May 22, so here's hoping I hear back soon.

Thanks, yeah it took less than a month overall. They asked me to send the documents through webform only, specifically choosing Paris as a VO. However, the tab for uploading documents stayed open after submitting the documents as they requested. So I raised another webform asking if there are additional documents required to be uploaded through the portal. They replied yeaterday that all the documents required are received, the application is in process, and the tab was left mistakenly open and will be closed. Now i have an update in the portal under additional documents saying, we are reviewing your additional documents with yesterday's date. Hopefully that would mean something good or at least they are moving forward with the application.

Dear @legalfalcon
I'm a fswo applicant from India.
ITA 16th Sept 2020
AOR 18th Oct 2020
Biometrics submitted 7th Jan 2021 in Nepal.
No developments since then.

Now I have been admitted to a US university on F1 visa, and I am going there on 19th July for a 2 year program.

My question-
1. Can I receive my copr in USA and get a ppr there?
2. What all do I need to inform to IRCC - change in COR, change in address, details of new f1 visa that has been added to my passport after AOR, PCC from USA, Change in mobile number etc
3. How can I add these details and what all proofs should I submit
4. Should I do this only after I reach USA?
5. Assuming I get my copr and ppr in US, can I go to Canada and initiate my PR card for 5 years and return to the US for my program? I am aware that I would have to be in Canada for atleast 2 yrs over the span of 5 yrs in order to maintain my PR status
6. How long would I likely have to be in Canada for point 5. Can I go to Canada and go back to US in a week or would I have to take a longer time-frame.

I am fully vaccinated (covishield) and I can provide address details of a trusted friend in Canada for delivery of PR card if required.

Your thoughts are deeply appreciated.

TIA

Not really sure! Someone pls help us lol

Is it 6 months old - Yes? Get a new picture. No - you can use the same. Kinda obvious

Yes, even with a review required with missing duties, I got approved. Don't know if the loe worked or maybe ircc need not to make rejection... So the journey was long... Btw, thank you all for sharing your experiences. It truly helped me a lot.

@stefi2020 Hi, my status is also review required and the file has not been touched since December. May I know whether you have provide a reference letter wrote by your colleague?

 

[blackknight12]

Hi mate!
Wondering whether you've progressed to the IP2 stage yet? Any updates?

Hey yes I did progress on to IP2 on 19 May! And my GCMS notes say RFV, all passed.

HI, no I could not even provided a letter from colleagues, since I left France for 2 years now. I just sent a LOE when I found out that GCMS notes indicated Review required. Basically, I explained in the LOE that I asked my employer to mention duties and that he did not (I provided the email I sent to my employer, dated before ITA). Not sure why or what has been considered. I also provide French Law where all my duties are listed (as a teacher).
2 months et 2 weeks after my LOE (and 3 months after review required) I got approved. Good luck!

1. Yes, change your address with IRCC after you move to the US
2. Just change of address and F1. If IRCC needs a PCC, they will ask.,
3. Send a webform
4. yes
5. yes
6. To keep your permanent resident status, you must have been in Canada for at least 730 days during the last five years. These 730 days don’t need to be continuous.

Received my notes today, generated recently:

I am FSW-O

Eligibility: Passed (only reviewed by Case Processing Agent, not an officer so it's still just recommended pass)
Medical: Expired (hasn't been renewed automatically in more than 3 months of expiring, I will have to go through another exam whenever they ask me to)
Criminality: Passed
Info Sharing: Complete
Security: Not Started


My file was last touched in Feb to pass criminality and complete info sharing and hasn't been touched again.

I was hoping for a status like yours but alas

I think it's because my medicals have expired. Whenever the processing is resumed I will be asked to redo them.


If there is anything I have learnt from this whole process is to be patient.

It would have been nice if my eligibilty was reviewed by officer but oh well.

 

[Rémi Beauséjours]

I’ll share something with u that will make u feel better.

My eligibility was also only passed by a case processing agent. I never had a section saying *officer review* - eligibility. But that didn’t stop the Officer Review to straight away pass everything and give RFV check in the latest note.

Don’t worry. It’s the darkest time before sunrise.

Hello @legalfalcon ,
Greetings from India. I want you to share ur perspective and some insight regarding when IRCC would resume finalizing FSW Outland files.
As per my telephonic conversation with call center agents , we are really close.
It's been a sucking and a blind wait.
Is there sunshine at the end of tunnel in near future or it may keeps on to be same ?
