Yes, it seems that way.Does eCopr processing times differs as per the application stream?
We’re in the spousal stream and there’s applicants in our group who uploaded their info to the portal in October for Calgary VO and are still waiting . From what I’m gathering for EOI and EE… it’s much faster, but does appear it varies between each stream in EOI and EE.
My theory is that IRCC held off issuing a bulk of PR’s late 2022 in order get them into the 2023 targets (had already surpassed 2022 targets). Should get a wave of issuances soon.
