Buffalo Tracker (please add)

I received my PP request on March 26th. I sent my passport on March 29th. At that time the status showed "Decision Made". Now when I check the status is showing In Process.

Does anybody know why?

Thanks

Its happened to me, the reason was me and my family a renewed passport just two month before we send pp for stamping, and I didnt informed them, so when I keep asking them what happened to my passport (as they keep pp more then 22 days), they informed me they are changing passport information all over the places, its could be easier if I send them this change information earlier.

Did you have any change you didn't informed them ?
 
documents for both or principal applicant only ?

In their initial assessment, CIC has asked for the docuemnts below. Except for a couple of items, they haven't explicitly mentioned whether an item is applicable for both principal and spouse or only principal. So I am assuming the following. Gurus please correct me if I am wrong on any of those.

1) good conduct certificate from home country (pcc):
CIC has mentioned it's needed for both - so will provide for both me and my spouse.

2) letter from current employer:
I will provide mine only

3) paystubs:
I will provide mine only

4) statement of funds:
I will provide mine only

5) immigration status:
I will provide mine only

6) medical within 60 days:
For both

7) RPRF CAD 975 per head:
For both

Question

Hello Gurus,
Can any one tell me which date to look, i applied during november 03 the site says " we started processing your application on january XX date"
 
Input /suggestions needed -please

I had applied for Can PR in June,2002, and got the initial assessement in Nov 03 and asked for the final documents along with the ROLF with in 90 days. I did medical in in Dec 03 and paid the fee in Mar04. And just waiting for the decision ?

My status in US is very risky right now. I am on a 7th Yr H1(labor in pending more than 3yrs) until Aug04 and need to apply for 8th year extension. However the extension is being delayed with wired answers, since our company has a cost cutting policy of 10% headcount readuction every year, I am sensing something might be cooking in the dark. I am just worried how to handle the status situation if my job status go bad before the canadian PR comes thru.
Any suggestions would be help us to be prepared for the worst.

Yes, I renewed my son's passport, and sent them the new one. May be you are right. That is why it is taking so long.. Thanks for your information.
 
Wishful_Thinkin,

I have received their mail today! Exactly 15 days after the eStatus changed to "Decision Made". That's weird! Some people get it within 3/4 days and for some of us it takes 15 days! In my case, they actually mailed it on 04/08/2004, so it took only 3 days after they mailed it.

Anyway, don't worry you will be fine. And if the mail takes couple weeks to reach, it dose not necessarily means bad news.


Here is my timeline:

Applied: 07/15/2002
Initial assessment: 10/02/2003, interview waived
Medical: 12/07/2003
Passport Request: 04/12/2004

Good luck to everyone else! Surely your days will come soon.
Thanks!
 
Decision Made !

Hello All –

First of all I request you to please respond if anyone has similar
Situation as I have.

I submit my Medical and FBI doc in Feb 2004.
Canadian Immigration ask me to send Landing fees ,Then I checked online status.
Which Showing “Decision Made “
What that means?

I have not received anything from Canada that says “Interview waived “ or “Interview required “ I am having 78 points .
I am trying find out what can be happened next?
Am I going to call for interview or Passport request?


Thanks a lot
 
Re: Decision Made !

to : waitingfornews7

Did you ever receive your initial assessment? It usually comes with the Medical forms (if interview is waived). If interview is waived, the letter should read " We expect to finalize your case without personal interview….etc).

From the information that you provided, it looks like your interview was waived and the fact that they asked you to pay the RPR fees and your status changed to decision made means you are almost done and you should get passport request pretty soon (my personal opinion).

BTW: what is your total timeline?

Good Luck

To ashi5

I have the same timeline as yours. But I am still waiting for my FBI check to send it back to Buffalo along with other documents. I am planning to send the ROLF fees along with my documents.

Maybe you can send the ROLF instead of waiting for them to ask for it. The ROLF is refundable if you dont land anyway.

Please keep posting updates. All the best.
