2018 January applicants for PR (paper-based)

[Mills18]

Inland meaning people who are in Canada and have applied for PR
Outland meaning people who are not in Canada and applied for PR.

I know the meaning, was just asking about the difference in timeline between the two categories.

My AOR is Mar. 12, My friends is one or two weeks before mine. they got their MR 3 weeks ago !

Are you friends outland or inland?

You dont really need PR to get a car. You just have to pay a higher interest rate. I have a car and I dont have PR. You pay the higher interest rate but once you get PR you can go back to the bank and get a lower interest rate. I just think that they should move faster with inland applicants. P>S I had to sell my house and car to pay for my education here too. I know how you feel.

Yeah, it is very hard to see how all your money is gone in Canadian education. Of course is an asset, getting knowledge doesn't hurt and it helps to find jobs, but if you compare with what domestics (PR, Citizens) pay for education you say wow, they should give priority and move faster with Inland applicants.

In regards of the car, well there are companies like Toyota or Honda which do not approve financing to people who are not PR. My financing was refused because of that reason. If you are not PR they ask you down payments of $2500 or $3000 imagine I live in Winnipeg. 3 years and a half surviving to these winters without a car, it has been tough. On the other hand, I'm close to the end. I passed the medical exams and I got the pre-arrival letter. I hope you too

In fact you don't even need to pay higher rate? I got my car with zero interest, 7 years loan, and I'm still waiting for my pr.

Hyundai I guess. They are friendlier.

I know the feeling, when I saw people that applied 3 weeks after me get their AOR 2 weeks before me I was pissed!
It seems like they've slowed down the AOR processing times.
Im sure you'll get yours soon

I've noticed a trend that applicants, who applied between Nov 2017 and Feb 2018, moved forward quickly with their applications. After March 2018, things got slow again. My guess is that all PNPs reached enough quotas, thus stopped issuing nominations at the end of 2017. So CIC was less busy during this period. What do you guys think?
