MTA stands for Biomedical Commercialization Canada Inc. (operating as Manitoba Technology Accelerator). Is an incubator.
I have a question for you. Whare did you get Application caps: IRCC has introduced annual limits on SUV applications:
- 2025: 2,000 applications
- 2026: 1,000 applications
- 2027: 1,000 applications
As far my finding these are the currently announced immigration lavel plan on federal business category which significantly reduced the terget of SUV PR approval rate which is a big negative impact and expand the processing time significantly..please follow the link and look for federal business. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/news/notices/supplementary-immigration-levels-2025-2027.html

Hello, Do you know your POV? My POV is Montreal and they said it takes more time for it.
If anyone's POV is Montreal, can you share the experience and timeline to estimate the Montreal FD's last date they have issued
I have analyzed the pre-arrival letters sent by IRCC and noticed a pattern. It seems that two different pre-arrival letters are issued at different stages of processing:
1. The first pre-arrival letter is sent after Eligibility is passed. It includes the following message:
"We are currently processing your application for permanent residency. You now qualify to receive pre-arrival services to help you prepare for your new life in Canada..."
2. The second pre-arrival letter appears to be sent after Security is passed and contains a slightly different wording:
"We are currently processing your application for permanent residency in Canada. This is a reminder that you now qualify to receive pre-arrival services to help you prepare for your new life... We encourage you to register as soon as possible."
The phrase "as soon as possible" in the second letter might indicate an important milestone in the processing timeline.
I believe this pattern is correct based on my findings, but I would like to confirm it with others. If anyone has received their GCMS notes and can verify this, please share your observations so we can analyze this further.

In my case, there is no note of PAL (Pre-Arrival Letter) in ATIP/GCMS and we got the final decision 16 months from PAL issuance date, however, many other cases have been receiving the golden emails just a few weeks after the PAL ... so it is an unpredictable game with IRCC but it is a good signal with the PAL i must say and you should try to explore these useful services. Best of luck !

I got my PAL in early October, along with my GCMS notes.
In the latest note, it states:
Has anyone encountered this situation before?
I submitted a web form inquiry asking why my application doesn't qualify for priority processing, but I only received an automated response stating that my application is still under review, without any explanation as to why it isn't prioritized.
In the latest note, it states:
However, I submitted my application under Canada’s Tech Network (CTN) around mid-2022.
