There is no criteria per se Mikasingh. Your BG should go to IP in a day or two and PPR in another day or two....My family size is 4, if it helps you in anyway ))
If it makes you feel better, there is a guy who posted today in the NDVO thread for whom the BG never went to IP. Who know you too may get that kind of double promotion !!!
PPR, MyCIC profile just got updated and application status changed to Approved.
And here some interesting info for you guys:
After 5.5 month since AOR I ordered GCMS notes, got those notes after 25 days and inside notes I find that 5 weeks after my AOR date,
visa office sent request for RPRF and photos. I didn't got anything from them, not in spam folder nowhere.
I submitted WebForm to check status of my file.
After ~15days I got email from visa office asking me to submit RPRF, photos and passport copies to their office AGAIN in 30 days.
First time I didn't received any emails from them , also in MyCIC account no messages beside AOR letter.
Anyway this is the end for me in this long long road to get approved to immigrate to my New Home in Canada!
My Advise: order GCMS notes and check your file!!!
If I had ordered notes 4 months ago, I can be right now in Canada already.
Best luck to all of you!
p.s. I will continue to maintain JULY-2016 AOR Sheet at least till my departure from here.
