Fast Track PR Application Acknowledgement
 
Wondering what sort of time frames other people have experience in receiving acknowledgement from London CHC of receipt of their fast track PR application? Sent mine almost a month ago and still nothing.

well ours has been in just over 8 weeks now and we havnt heard anything.
I will keep you posted.
But i'm sure the canadian postman thinks i fancy him, because as soon as i see him, i'm straight outside waiting for him...he's now saying only junk mail today.
Bet your like us and would love to hear something by christmas.
Keep me updated if you hear anything please and fingers crossed for us both!

Don't hold your breath, they do not acknowledge it, full stop.

I had a similar problem, we only knew when they cashed the cheque.

there is something on the website saying that Pr apps with arranged employment are being processed immediately so i would think that they are onto it already and you should be waiting for med req

How long does that usually take to come through?

God thats a long wait. Hope we dont have to wait that long....couldnt cope with the stress.
Think i would have emailed or faxed them if i were you, even just to get a reference number so you can track it on line.
Good luck, hope you hear something soon.

Hi there,

My Fast-Track PR application was sent to London on 12 April 2008, and I received medical requests on 12 May 2008. This is for Skilled Worker with a TWP.

Cheers,

Sarah

I have been reading the forum as I am about to apply for PR from Canada. Both my wife and I work in Canada on a 2 year work visa.
Can I sent my application back to the UK or just send it to Buffalo NY as the CIC website says???
Goood luck to everyone..

I believe you can do both but you can only request it to be 'fast tracked' if you send it to London

I'm over 7 months waiting now (fast-track SW). Apparently med requests have been sent out twice, but I still haven't got them. Not sure whether to laugh or cry.
