They say 12mos. As of late, nearly all of that is waiting for inactivity. Lately, people can go from AOR to DM in an afternoon...
Yeah it seems so inconsistent, so I really don't know what to expect and when with our application! Seems to be not as many applicants in the Inland 2017 thread so I usually lurk around here for info and help.

The missus is gorgeous, and was beaming !

The profiler was also beaming ..

I'm actually surprised at the crowd you noted. From the spreadsheet it looks like Kitch likes to do inland landings on Fridays.. maybe i'll get called in next friday .. #hereshoping ;)

Yeah... she's OK (#OuttaMyLeague)... She was upset until she saw the COPR... Then her mood totally changed... She got her passport back, aaaand a COPR!

I'm glad she was relieved though... The fear of immigration was gone with that paper....

Any day now.... You watch :)

Oh and Carol is right. ECAS changes the next day to say your loved one landed and became a Permanent Resident. And says "Complete".

Time to see the notes:)

That right there, sounds like profiler talk! :)

True though...

I was wondering when they'd cut 2016 in half and start working on parallel to clear older and newer side by each. At the 13.5
Then why continue to chant "Rest assured, we are processing applications in the order that we received them." - IVR lady

Thanks Carol... She was drunk an hour after it was all done....and over the weekend too... She considers it "Canadian citizenship". She doesn't do politics (Russia: woting isn't real). She doesn't want a high sec job, so the theory is, the rest is formality....

She was nervous up until the exact questions I told her would be asked, in the very same order, were asked... She broke out laughing at the window when he asked about crimes....

I did pass around a pre and post pic... I am not sure if you can see relief on her face or not...

Browning: what would you say?




same with my husband after it was done a big ole smile but hey 5 years till citizenship now she can go home. that's the nerve wrecking part questiona now you can move on and not worried

Well the number is for more than spousal. The theory is the same. That people will land in 13.5 or so.. but at the end of the day, one or two disgruntled applicants is far better than 16,000.

They kept the FIFO for longer than I would have guessed...

Can some of your 2016 applicants tell me what your timeline was like? I'm a March 2017 applicant, after the AORs in April, there hasn't been any other changes, except the Schedule A request. When do they ask for Medical etc and how long on average for Sonsor Approval?
Thank you!


we were Dec 2015 took us 17 months

5 months to DM ! Congrats !!!

So just linked the OWP extension...looks like it was approved on the 3rd of May..so might be in the mail this week...so much for landing quickly and then cancelling that before it was approved so we can get our $250 back, lol


Still no landing invite from Kitch....contacted the MP's office...hoping to hear back from them soon for a timeline or something...


hang in there

I hate it when Govt agencies behave unscrupulously (imo this sheet balancing behavior = without scruples).

Congratulations btw! I'm sure CIC is celebrating your landing more than you though! ;)
