Finally in Canada and getting ready to receive our PR cards.
I got a mail from CPCS Sydney and looked like a scam, I’m weary of links and fake accounts.

Do they produce cards outside Canada ?
I alone received the mail, my partner has not received any.

The mail title reads, “IRCC - Communication to client -PR Card Phase 1…”
Is it genuine?
Has anyone else ever received this kind of mail ?
Sydney is a city in Nova Scotia.
 
Hello,
I have applied for Express Entry in Jan 24, 2023.

I received a letter from CSIS and it states:

Security Assessments/Advice (CSIS PPU 005) - A search of this bank was conducted and no
personal information concerning you was located.


Could you please help me to understand this?

Thank you,

Thank you,
Did you claim any fund from a bank? It looks like they tried to verify but they could not do that.
This is my interpretaton of the message.
 
I'm in security screening. I plan to sue next year.

Updates - I can see the light at the end of this veeeeery looooong tunnel now. IRCC just asked me to renew my medicals! Although it could also be the result of the worldwide bug on Microsoft servers today. :rolleyes:

I doubt that's a bug(IRCC isn't that modern :D). Hopefully, you will get your approval email soon.

Any update after that?

I called IRCC today and they told me security screening by both CSIS and CBSA finished on the same day of the remedical request (July 19).

Reviewing my updated medical exam results is the only thing left outstanding. Unfortunately, it is too much to ask for given IRCC's limited mental capabilities

Hello,

My PVO is Sydney, Nova Scotia. My file is under background check since 29 May (AOR - 26 March). Did anyone else have this PVO? Please share your timeline.
 
I hope I am the last person in the January 2023 cohort to graduate. IRCC sent me to comprehensive security screening, and fought viciously when I brought them to court. They would not reply to my mandamus actions until the 11 pm on the 10th or 30th day (i.e. 1 hour before the 30 day deadline established by law, 10 day deadline for giving NoAs), but it only took them 20 minutes to ask me to withdraw my mandamus suit after the counterfoil was generated. Before even the visa centre was aware!

Congratulations! I am also stuck, applied on Jan 24,2023 received two PFL, replied by the lawyer twice but got nothing. Could you please tell me who applied your Mandamus? will really appreciate your help.

Hello Aoko, could you help me with this query? I landed in Calgary with my COPR the first week of this month but at the port of entry, they did not ask for my mailing address where the PR card will be sent to. Could you tell me how you received your PR card? Where you asked to provide an address at the port of entry or you were contacted directly via email when your PR card was ready. Thanks
 
Congratulations! I am also stuck, applied on Jan 24,2023 received two PFL, replied by the lawyer twice but got nothing. Could you please tell me who applied your Mandamus? will really appreciate your help.

My lawyer is Lev Abramovich, but I don't think our experiences are mutually applicable - I did not get any PFL (not even an ADR).
