Montreal Visa Office ... Let's connect here.

[maverick1982]

Yeah do update once you received notes. They did my eligibility on 7 August and my AOR is June 19. So based off that your eligibility should have been done by now.

Absolutely, as soon as i get them ill post here

Congrats you're not in Montreal. Ottawa is possibly the fastest visa office although they have been slowing a little but still best chance for an early PPR.

Don't know when they will do their eligibility. What is your AOR?

But Ottawa is the secondary one??? Do you know what it means “secondary”?
AOR:7/27 I just found out from the note they stalled my eligibility check due to medical issue, which I had it cleared on 10/2. Is there a way to alert case analyst to go back and work on my file? Thanks cansha.

I don't exactly know what secondary means. My guess is once CIO processes your eligibility it will move to secondary office for further processing. However, it is not always the case and they could assign it to an entirely different visa office for load distribution.

There is no way of "alerting" case analyst to go back to your file. Most of us are in a situation where our files have not been touched for months. No one knows how they decide when to pick a file. So, all you can really do is wait.

When you see you cleared medical issue? what does it mean? Was there an ADR? Did you upload new medical test?

Yes cic couldn’t locate my medical results so I had to go back to the clinic and do it again (ikr, so irresponsible!!!) I literally waited 2 months for nothing as now I learned they only process your case after medical pass (
Patience is a key here then.

Man, that sucks. So what i understand is: you did everything right, the medical was good but either CIC or the doctor messed up in uploading file?

Hi Cansha, I order them directly through ATIP website (currently in Canada)
Maybe I wait until middle of next week and email them?
Calling IRCC and heavy volume call issue... I just want to check eligibility status

Yeah wait a day or two. You are FSW-I candidate?

 

[annevn8]

Yes, was on a student visa then retook Ielts and got the benchmark and applied. Still on student visa and dying every day waiting for this Montreal guys to wake up... cause the college is not fun

Yeah I understand. It is tough to wait. You are close to 6 month mark. Hopefully, you will get PPR soon.

Thanks Cansha, I will update once note comes. Cant understand why application is so straight forward and still this much waiting time... It really made me worried if I did any mistake or misrepresented anything or point assessed dropped...
more stress, more reading and more reading more stress

Don't worry if there was a mistake they would have contacted by now. Why this much delay? No one can answer.
I know people on forums give reasons like application may be complicated, travel history etc. etc. I think it is none of those. The time taken to process your application is only a factor of one thing .. your luck .. There is no other explanation why some files don't get touched for months. I don't think there is any good reason.

We can just hope and pray. I really want to see all April applications to be processed as soon as possible. I think once they finish April they will move to our applications.

Me April Thanks Cansha, Been following your thread and comment for a long time and it is such a relief. Maybe I should order one mor set of note today so if the one (which hasn’t come) didnt trigger them then today-ordered-note may? What do you suggest?
