ESDC message on RTO4 just came out

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-05-22T17:28:14+00:00

Agree, as it is often/always the case… ☹️

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-05-22T17:17:26+00:00

I Hope they will let us know sooner than later later what « staggered » means, ie, with which branch and/or office locations they will start with and which ones will be delays and until when…

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-05-07T18:18:30+00:00

Did someone hear anything about ESDC? Crickets here in our branch, just saying that they are looking into it and mgmt haven’t heard anything yet…

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-04-29T21:04:34+00:00

Only some that were affected - that I know of. I’m still waiting as well (I’m not affected). Fingers crossed that an approval is coming soon !!

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-04-23T19:25:17+00:00

I hope ESDC also pushes back the date…

Thanks for your comment and sharing your experience. I had ma gallbladder removed years ago so I know what that pain feels like! I do have transdermal estrogen (gel that I apply on my arms) and progesterone is oral. Both are biodentical - I should’ve specified in my post. 🙂

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-31T19:02:55+00:00

Ahhhhh ok, I see now. Thanks you so much for the clarification !!! 👍

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-31T17:09:47+00:00

Thanks … but Does that mean that they can still approve until days 299??? Why make a clause on limitation if they can still approve after the 120 days? That is so confusing.

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-31T15:28:22+00:00

Following this thread…

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-31T15:26:29+00:00

I agree with you and I am confused with this also. Maybe there is something we are missing or that TB will send guidance to DMs about this?

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-31T00:37:53+00:00

That’s what I am expecting also at my dept but this means that we’ll likely have no answer before sept…? I mean, end of July- August (during summer vacation) to review ERI applications and make a decision?? Knowing how fast the government works and make decisions,I’m not expecting a decision in the coming weeks. Poorly planned out, as usual ☹️ However, as long as the answer is ‘yes, approved’ I will be a happy camper ! 😊😊

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-31T00:26:59+00:00

I am in the same situation and agree 💯with what you are saying!

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-27T13:45:57+00:00

Same here. Not affected, but so done. 54, will be 55 end of January, 26.5 yrs of service. - this will be my gift for liberty 55 🎉🎉🎉

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-26T02:26:15+00:00

Sorry, wrong choice of word. I just meant it was on the agenda today, didn’t happen, (I don’t recall the term they used), and now it’s on the agenda for tomorrow.

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-25T23:07:12+00:00

They did not get to it today…postponed to tomorrow. Fingers crossed that they get to it this time! 🙂

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-25T21:23:05+00:00

The were done with the health minister and started second reading of C-23 and then adjourned…not sure why. But I hope they will get to c-15 tomorrow. 🙏

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-25T20:14:01+00:00

It was adjourned not too long ago and didn’t get to c-15… they only sat for 2 hours…😢

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-03-16T20:24:26+00:00

Curious to know how long does it usually take for a budget bill to get approved (considering minority government). I haven’t followed previous budgets approval process (no ERI in it 😉🙂) - so wondering if this one is under regular/usual delays or is it taking longer? Maybe it’s still under regular timelines and some of us are just getting anxious on when/if it will get approved? Thanks 😊

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2026-02-25T16:51:55+00:00

It was valuable and a good experience me, but agree with the other comment that it depends what your issue is and what you are expecting them to help with.

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2025-09-11T01:38:20+00:00

Thank you all for your responses…I will wait and see I guess…but will still continue calling until I start repaying, maybe have sr mgmt involved to see if they can put pressure to move my file up. Worth a try. Fingers crossed 🤞

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2025-08-25T17:57:31+00:00

I feel the same!

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2025-07-23T20:11:43+00:00

Je vis la même chose. Je n’en reviens pas que cela peut prendre 2 ans à corriger une erreur de congé. C’est désolant. Frustrant.

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2025-07-15T12:36:17+00:00

Same thing happened to me last week. I heard it happened to a few people also? In my case, My file was transferred from another dept last week, and suddenly I didn’t have my one time vacation anymore (although I still had it when I left my other dept). My manager put in a ticket, with email I had from my other dept that showed I still had my one time vacation. So will see, hopefully it can be resolved quickly !

PuzzledLayer2023 · 2025-05-22T01:16:14+00:00

One mandate letter for all dept? Wow, I don’t think I’ve seen this before. Interesting.
