No, we are not that important to them, their system is probably programmed to do so. I have got most of my updates on Saturday and most of them 2-4 in the morning

Oh ! now it makes sense. I thought they start work on weekends!
You right, we are not that “important” for them at all. Thank you for your reply and I hope you will get a good news this week

Congratulations to you so finally someone in this forum got a PPR ! Thats awesome. However yours is a bit different since you mentioned your status was in process. Could you please share more about your timeline. Thank you !

You definitely should send emails to Ankara VO

Anyone contacted the embassy via the web form after the 12-month period was up? If so, what did they say? It's been over 13 months for our application, so I'm thinking it's time to follow up.

Congrats
What is your time line?
Did you receive passport request?
We are Nov applicant but still in application received situation.

@EhsRm @JFK_YVR my application is at one year and 4 months. I have sent lots of emails. I only got the computer response (due to COVID-19 blah blah blah). They are lazy. Lots of people here got their passport requests and they applied after me! Congrats to them. I know luck plays a role here. Anyways, I’m done with them

Thank you Sarah, good news for me would be that you guys, who have waited more than me, receive PPR email. Then I could expect to receive mine

No one beats me here. I’m Still the ‘champion’ of waiting Lool. I applied back in May 2019 and still no answer.

Sorry guys, I thought PPR is for pre-arrival and PRL is for passport request. seems I was wrong on both. We got pre-arrival.
I think just one May applicant got passport request days ago so far.

No worries. That's what I thought. But the good news is that since you are Oct applicant and you received pre arrival. I think they're expediting the process. My ECAS and most of Sep, Oct and Nov applicants say application received. So, I'm happy to hear after we receive the pre arrival it will change to in process.
