2023 PR Applications Timeline (Protected Persons & Refugees)

[S4m4r]

Hi. Have you requested GCMS notes? Or called IRCC and asked them if you passed eligibility or not? Because you supposed to be almost there if you live outside of Quebec.

Hi, I live in Ontario (Mississauga office)requested GCMS notes 5 times already. Latest one was last week (same info so far). Calling IRCC every month. All they say is its still under processing time. Nothing they require from my end. They will contact if they need anything. Last correspondence was police clearance from Australia in September 2023. My file moved fast in the beginning and nothing after November 2023. For security- US and Australia has submitted my clearance since November 2023, And its ready to be reviewed as per the GCMS notes. I believe my file is put away and never been touched since then. Depends on the case officer. Im only 2 months away to finish my processing time. Hoping I could figure out something once this processing time game finishes.

Maybe you should contact them. Also ask for GCMS notes. You can see what’s going on. I applied in May 30th 2023 from Ontario. I received eligibility and pre arrival letters. Even my partner who is not refugee and in Canada with me received pre arrival letter. We both passed eligibility, medical, criminality. Better try to ask them.

Im February 2023, haven’t received eligibility or pre-arrival yet.

Just a crazy situation honestly. I’m in the exact same boat. I did send a web form sometime last yr and received the standard response. Just sent another yesterday and I’ll try to send a gcms notes request today. Hopefully we get some progress this yr

Hi. No they did not ask from me. My GCMS notes shows that they have it (from when I did my refugee claim).
