***>>> February 2020 AOR <<<***

[Born to reign]

Hello @legalfalcon, thank you for your prompt response always. I’m an inland CEC applicant, CPC Ottawa with feb 26 Aor. All the stages of the application has been passed since June 17, I’m still waiting for my file to be finalized. Will contacting my local MP help out with this situation or is there anything else I can do?

Hello All. I am an FWS-O applicant from India. I just wanted to share my experience till now. My AOR was Feb15th and biometrics and Med were passed in March itself. From the GCMS notes we got way back in July we noticed that the application had been positively assessed my the Case Processing Agent in the early days of March and it had not been touched since then. I ordered another GCMS in October and received the same in November. To my dismay, the application status was the same and it had still not been touched since March. This is really sad as my application has not been touched for more than 8 months now. My VO is Ottawa and the Secondary office is CIO. Do you think there is any benefit of emailing the Visa Office on the email address shared earlier. I know there is noting much we can do than wait, but the fact that my application has been dormant for 8 months is really gnawing at me and is making me question the way the applications are being processed. Please let me know if there is any way I can nudge them to realize what's going on and resume my processing ASAP.

My case is almost similar along with timelines, and after passing biometrics and med in March, no significant progress in my application. Currently rest of fields showing in progress, so not sure if are they really processing outland applications with lower priority or any specific issue with our applications (which I dont think so). No option than to wait. But yes if you can get some updates through webform or any other means, keep posted.

Has anyone recently gotten 90 days extension for GCMS notes but got the notes way before the 90 days?

Hello All,

I am an FSW-O applicant from USA with the AOR date of Feb 20. We are blessed with baby girl last week and want to know when and how to add her on my application.
I am in the same boat as most of you and waiting for my PR application.

Thanks in advance for your guidance

Nope. There are many other CEC inland applicants who are in the same boat. You just have t wait until IRCC starts rolling out COPRs with the new online system.

@legalfalcon

Most likely yes.

IRCC goes by month and year. However, since as per dates you do not meet the 6 months threshold, you do not need to submit the PCC and you can explain it in LoE.

If IRCC requires a PCC, they will ask.

Thank you so much

Hi @legalfalcon

I hope you can help me with this. I'm adding my spouse to my application but I receive some different instruction as of some others in this forum. It was in my understanding that Form IMM008 was to be filled and sign ONLY by the main applicant (me), while form IMM5406 was to be filled and sign by BOTH (one each). But the instructions I received state the same instructions for both forms. Should I send an IMM008 for me and my spouse(one each)?.

This is the instructions I received:
-Updated Generic Application Form for Canada IMM 0008 for yourself and your spouse or common-lawpartner (CLP);
- Updated Additional Family Information Form IMM 5406 for yourself and your spouse or common-law partner (CLP);

Thank you !!

You'd have to inform IRCC using a webform. They would respond back with a list of documents/actionables required from you. You'd have to get a passport for the newborn.

You don’t have to fill up IMM0008 individually for you and your spouse. When you will fill the form , in 2nd question if you select spouse then automatically you will able to see one more section of your spouse after your information ends. So over-there you have to fill up the information of your spouse.

I just got my GCMS notes today, my AOR is Feb 2020 and country of residence is USA.
VO: Ottawa
My notes contain the following
ASSESSMENTS:
Eligibility: Passed
Security: Not started
Criminality: Not started
Medical: Passed
Info sharing: Complete

Does this mean my eligibility is conclusively passed ?
There has been no movement in my file since April.

MM 5406 - To be filled by you and your CLP, respectively. One for each.
