Process was on time before..I got my MR done at the start of the 12th month (thats how it is suppose to happen)..April 1st applicants got their PPR request on July 11 and since then everything stopped..Seems like they were the last batch..I was a student before and i know friends in all intakes .. Jan,April and Sep and Since the time we applied for Student or work or PNP or Federal PR we have been keeping a track ..Yeah, I have several friends applied 1-2 months earlier than me and they all got their ME at around 12th month. They have mailed out their passports already in this month.
