SDS process time 2023

[Naturgrl]

Does IRCC send PPR on weekends as well?

Yes. Monday is a holiday in Canada so factor that in.

 

[terki]

This is my question as well.

yes

Because you applied with spouse and child then it may take much longer. All you can do is wait. Just because some are approved quickly doesn’t mean your application will be.

Understood; do you have any idea on expected processing time for such cases under SDS?

Yes. Monday is a holiday in Canada so factor that in.

What? Do they work on Sat and Sun?

Hello Everyone
My sister applied under SDS for Jan 2024 intake on Sept 7. Medical updated and passed Sept 30. And she got her passport request on Oct 10. She applied for herself and her 3 year old son. Both got approved.
Thanks

Got my visa for all my family members on time; received PPR on exactly 20th day of Biometric.
