I called yesterday and today. yesterday the agent told background check is ongoing. However today the agent did not mention anything and she said the application is still under process and I should call back if I dont hear anything till the end of October.

Dont about what they say. The answers are very random and sometime disheartening. So dont be sad, I know its difficult times but yes they are working and hopefully you will hear something soon.

Best Regards,

Hi all;

I am an April applicant and my E cas status change last weak adding three more sentences like,

We received your application for permanent residence on April , 2014.
We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on May , 2014.
We started processing your application on May , 2014.
We sent you correspondence on May , 2015. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.
We sent you correspondence on June , 2015. If you have not yet provided the information or the requested documents, please do so as soon as possible. Please wait until you receive the correspondence before sending us additional information, as the correspondence will outline all information that is required.

The same day I got an email for medical request for my wife. Which I send the one she did for work permit but sending via email, i did not get the auto acknowledgement email. I also send it via surface mail. I did for my self an upfront medical and pay the RPRF as well in July 2015. My question is that why they ask me medical again for my wife while I submit it with the document when I was adding her to my application. Her medical is 5 month old only at the moment.

When I should expect a passport request..

Thanks

Colrainwx1985, astro.ca and canind1983 Thanks for your response

But the way CIC is working on our applications i am loosing hopes completely. Moreover my workpernit is expring on dec 4 and i dont think i will get my bowp approved prior to that and will loose my job. My employer does not agree me working on implied status . I have to support my family and when i am job less what best i can do. My wife is on visitor status so she cannot work.

Completely disappointed

My situation is similar to yours.

I send medical completion form of my wife to CIC on 7th May 2015 did not receive any confirmation from them.
I received medical request for my wife on 23rd sep 2015. with new IME.
I again sent the medical completion form to CIC on 23rd sep 2015 to CIC in an email, till now i have not received a reply from them.

I do not know what i can do now.

I agree with you sam_786 and I know its hard when you have dependents. Believe me I was in the same situation. Was laid off after working my a** off for one of the corporate giants :). However I anticipated this to happen and luckily got the BOWP on time and a job in Manitoba.
You do have an option of applying for Employment Insurance. In case you have been paying EI from your salary regularly for a particular duration then you are eligible and can apply when time comes. This amount could be around 500 CAD/week(depends on how much EI you had been paying) and can be paid for max 10 months. I would suggest to go through the following link and be prepared.
http://www.servicecanada.gc.ca/eng/sc/ei/index.shtml
There are few things which are very important before claiming EI. Like if you voluntarily quit then you may not be eligible for it.

Keep strong my friend. You waited for so long I hope you get through this situation soon.

Best Regards,

Hi Sab12;

Its just to let you know that today they send me an email saying that,

Your medical exam results have been received by our office and your application is going through the required assessment process.


An officer will contact you if additional documents are required. Please ensure when submitting documents that they are still valid and will not expire within six (6) months as this will delay your application.


We appreciate your patience and keeping correspondence with our office to a minimum and up to date. In order to process request efficiently, we will not be responding to duplicate requests.

My wife did medical in May 2015 which is till valid for more then 6 months.

Hi Feb applicants,

Does anyone heard anything form CIC yet? I called them last week and it was really upsetting that they told me to wait until May 2nd and not to call before then. I have completed medicals, paid RPRF in April 2015 but still waiting and they want me to wait for 5 more months!!!! ???

Anyone else tried calling and got any different answer?
