How do you sound like a saint everytime you type something? I mean, come on :D
It's impossible to trust this niceness.
Don't worry. We all were very different when we joined. You'll all go through love/hate on the forum - we all did, it is a part of our journey. You'll all be where we are :) We had arguments/fights/etc - if don't know already, someone threatened to sue me and bunch of others here (verbal, nothing serious). At this point, a lot of us see common emotions and vulnerabilities. We just want to be there for you all when we still can.

It's the tenth day for you still, comfortably short of the third week. I guess I came off a bit strongly but the point is, even I'm from India and FSW-O. The generalisation that you made was, I'm assuming, based on a relatively small sample size. I didn't mind your timeline, that's usual but the confidence in your observation was based more out of your own experience and that of those around you, rather than rooted in the wider reality.

I'm seeing FSW-Os from March whose eligibility review has not yet started. So, it's a complex situation out there. I guess you and your mates are some of the lucky ones whose applications caught IRCC's attention quickly.

The part you mentioned about having Canadian education and experience was very insightful and explains a lot, to be fair. Thanks for that. I don't have either of those. Good luck with your application :)
By third week, I meant post Biometrics being linked. I have seen people have their eligibilities start & complete within a week from Biometrics. My POV, as mentioned in my OP, came from a wide range of reading and not just what went on with my mates. Its a similar trend on whatsapp and reddit as well. A lot of people have already observed this and mentioned that FSW-O indeed is being processed the quickest in 2023 so far.

I already had a UCI when I went as a student and then the same UCI for work permit. So I'm guessing it was easier to track me down and link it to my PR application. Another thing that may have worked in my favour, I have also maintained a Canadian bank account. My proof of funds & statements also was on a local bank's letterhead. I'm guessing these things are easier to verify by local authorities and hence are processed quicker.

I hope that helps understand my situation better too.

Hi Guys! I'm new here. Posting my timelines.

FSW Outland

ITA: 24 March, 2023
AOR: 01 May, 2023
MEP/BIL: 10 May, 2023
Biometric: 16 May, 2023
Eligibility (started on the tracker): 22 May, 2023
Background has been in progress since the start of application.

I personally know a few friends who have gotten their PRs in the last month within 30 days from AORs, one got it in 22 days. All of them were FSW Outland. I dont know what's happening but despite the mixed things I have read on reddit, here and WhatsApp groups, I think FSW Outland applications are being processed the quickest.
Hi, May AOR friends,
I see some of you who are sharing your timelines here.
If you haven't joined us, we have a great way to share, rather than posting a single timeline in a separate place.

You can see the details in my signature. Thank you.

I've a health condition and for me MEP was sort of a big deal. My heart rate was through the roof too. After MEP, never stressed about anything though (except for standing in a long line outside VFS in a very hot weather).

No updates yet

I also have another question, thanks in advance for your inputs.
I am on a work permit but my TRV had expired, when I applied for PR, my TRV application was already in progress. As of today I received PPR for my TRV application. Once I do get the new visa stamped, do I need to resubmit my passport scan to IRCC for my PR application? Or is that something they would know internally as they are the ones stamping my passport with the new TRV

thanks

All of these applications were based out of India. Another common things is all of them had Canadian education and took points for some Canadian work experience.
I think that Canadian education and experience might be the deciding factor there. I dont know too many other people who got COPR within a month

Have you received any email from the IRCC regarding BIL/MEP?
Alternatively, should I check my account for the update and BIL?

Did anyone get Eligibility Completed? How much time does it generally take after eligibility for the background to get cleared?
My background is in progress since i gave my biometrics 18 May.
My Eligibility is in progress since 29 May.
Oddly, in my GCkey account there is no update since i gave my biometrics, all these informations are from the tracker, people told me it's more reliable.

As I have read on this thread, Tracker will provide better, more accurate updates post your biometrics. GCKey will remain "in progress" till you get your passport stamped.

I don't understand what you are asking here. But, guessing on broad scenarios.

Are you asking about updating IRCC with your new TRV? If so, that's not required.

Are you asking about sending passports for PR visa stamps? As an inland applicant you won't get RFV or PPR, you'll get a Portal email and will have to submit all documents virtually. No passport submission is required.
