US outland applicants' thread :)

[aeastmond]

We are over the top happy tonight!! We were away at a family reunion in Alberta since Thursday and when my husband arrived home in the US tonight his COPR was in the mail!!!! Not sure when exactly it arrived, but it was dated July 31, so I think it probably just arrived today. SO happy and thankful we are almost done...just the Landing to go (likely next weekend).

Conrats

Your time line looks like you sent your PP twice is that right??
If so your second date was a few days before I sent mine , fingers crossed

We never received the first request for PP, so we only sent it once, but that was July 9....hopefully that means your good news is really soon, too!

We emailed a copy of the PP.

Thank you

The worst part is, no acknowledgement that they received it

So true. The best we can hope for are the eCAS updates. Which seem pretty random!

If they even update them, they had time to make changes though lol

The last email I got said "Your application is currently in queue to be finalized"

I sent them an email to see if they received my PP and that was it

I sent an email like that about July 20th and never got a reply either.

I got my PPR on May 8 and sent the passport scan that day. After over a month of nothing, I emailed a followup asking if they needed anything else to finalize my application. I got a response from CPP-O stating that they never received my passport scan. I forwarded the original email I sent along with another scan of my passport and a request for an individual acknowledgment of receipt aside from the generic automated response that you receive after sending them an email. That was done on a Friday and the next Monday I got acknowledgment that they received it. However, I think I only got that because they realized that they messed up. It's about as much of a mea culpa that one can expect from them.

My passport scan was sent on May 8 the first time and resent on June 14. Since then, nothing. ECAS still says "Application Received" and we're at 3 months out. Not as bad as Ivan, but I'm getting pretty frustrated here.

I guess what I'm trying to say is if you don't hear anything within 45 days, it's probably a good idea to check in with them.

Congrats to IslandAnnie and amikety!

So tired of seeing Application Received in ECAS! Got PPR June 12, 2013 - and an email telling us the application was in process. Why can they not update the system?

That sounds too much like work.

Thanks

I think they've all taken a vacation from responding.

A looong vacation. Perhaps they feel like they are teachers and get the whole summer off too?
