Just called the CIC. Agent told me that officer is still reviewing the documents provided for eligibility. It can take upto june for the final decision.
AOR 23rd August CEC INLAND.
I’m refusing to believe that’s true!

I could imagine that the agents right now are inundated with calls and requests as we are entering into the new year. I believe a lot of us fine folks decided to not contact the IRCC in the earlier weeks of Jan as it was so close to the new year/holidays etc. Things are probably amping up in the call centres and frustrations are high. I would say that the less professional (and stressed) agents are randomly saying far-out processing times to get people to stop callling in! Just my two cents!!

No, it doesn’t. Anybody who suggests otherwise is spreading baseless rumors. There is no evidence of applications being processed faster or slower due to NOC codes.
Not to argue or counter your response but just out of curiosity...

Could you find any evidence (with considerable chunk of data) that application processing doesn't have influence of NOC codes??

The only reason to ask is that we might have few friends with whom we are comparing but I could not find NOC codes in Immitracker (where we have relatively good amount of data) through which one can conclude that NOC doesn't have impact.

May be I am missing on any other tracker or reference chunk of data of applicants which suggests NOC doesn't have any impact.

Again, intention is not to enter into argument.. I personally don't have any strong opinion on this.

Good luck.

I did some analysis and according to immitracker's August 2018 cases, 324 people received AOR for FSW and only 126 received PPR as of today. This means just 38% of people received PPR who had AOR in August 2018. This is significantly far from the 80% claim they made in their year-end report. For them to reach 80% PPR rate for Aug guys, they will have to issue 133 PPRs by Feb 28, 2019 which seems highly unlikely. I think there is something seriously wrong this time with CIC.

It's realisable

Thinking whether to call or not. they have specifically mentioned not to call before the deadline.
An agent told me before that you can call if you want, where did you read this ?

When you receive the "Request for VISA" email, does the CIC profile change in any way? Does it still show as "In progress" ?
