Guys any Idea how long it takes for BGC to Complete after Eligibility for FSW-Inland?
There wont be a definite answer to your query. Important to understand that each application is unique and dependent on various factors for BGC ( your travel history, work history, personal history etc.). Also it is not just IRCC involved, there are multiple dependencies.

They can mark your BGC done in a day, a week(or weeks) or months. If you are unlucky, they'll send your application for comprehensive security check - which can easily take a year.

But, in most cases, they don't take more than 2-3 months.
Thank you! Yeah I can see the processing times for most of the applicants are much lesser these days. :)

I can't stay too inclined to that as "some" will always not get that processing time. I don't know if you would be the lucky one or unlucky ones. I tend to stay neutral :D

That way, if you got your PPR faster, I'm here to celebrate with you and I did my part in setting the right expectation. Fast is always good if you are expecting a delay. But let's say if you got delayed, we'll at least have you mentally prepared for it.

People report getting fatigued as they go through immigration wait times. There are some very recent AORs who are literally freaking out right now. It is unhealthy and bad. Lower expectations never hurt ;)

Can never be mentally prepared with seeing others with similar profile and category get their application processed quickly while yours is up in the air, with nothing you can really do. I know it sounds petty but it's honest. I can't act all zen like you, there's a lot for me that rides on this application. Everyone is at a different stage in life.

Well Said! Lets wish each other well and hope no one goes through that long route.

You are betting your life on something that you have zero control over. It is in general a bad idea. If nothing moves on your application even after 6 months - you still won't be able to do anything.

Not betting my life, but a lot depends on it. I think that's the case with every outland applicant. Things do deoend. Would I make a long term investment in my home country right now? Probably not. Given your experience with this, I have been holding out for an explanation mate. At least give it a try! Please don't share another old response of yours, I admit that you are a zen personality. But I don't aspire to be like you right now.

Maybe over at IRCC its John's birthday. Everyone likes John, so they take out random applicants named John and process their files first to celebrate IRCC John's birthday. Then all the Johns get updates and post on this forum, while the Jimmys sob in sadness.

I'll ignore the borderline pedantic tone. Even if we consider all the people with names starting with J instead of John, that's still just 1/26. But the feeling I'm getting following fswo cases all over the internet, not just this forum, is like 23/26. So, apparently it's everyone's birthday except Adam, Brian and Charlie.
