My understanding is they will process all qualified submitted applications. It may take a little longer for those who submitted in June but i dont think there is a big gap. FIFO is somewhat true as they would process applications in May first then process ones in June. But this does not mean applications in May must have done first before they can move on to June submissions.
They actually said they will process all completed applications whom.they invite.
Some have already waited 2 months so 6 months seems unlikely. They accepted 27000 applicants vs 10000 last year so I expect the process to be longer. Many of the applications from October 2018 were processed slower. Everyone has been comparing times to last year and keep on being disappointed. Not to mention we have no idea what is going on with lawsuits. Best to have realistic expectations and be happier if things are processed faster. People keep on panicking when things take longer than last year when nobody promised fast processing times like last year. That could be a one off year.
They said processed not accepted. They said applications not accepted this year will get moved to next year.
Actually they haven't been transparent about how they are going to process the applications. I can't find it, but someone did ask this question to IRCC specifically if they would process applications if there are more than 27,000 and got a reply just saying that based on the applications they have received, they will process your application when they receive it. Nothing specific about whether they will NOT process any applications received.
yes I do recall someone posting something like that as a reply. I will try to find it.
No it won't be any problem... Just relax... If cic need any information they will request it now give u time to submit it...
Think that is just normal intake but nobody is being careful that applications received are processed in any kind of order. The processing center is scanning applications as they come in. They are also checking for missing signatures and pages.
Yes they said process all applications received but no promise to accept more than 20000 applications this year.
Yes I read that somewhere as well as a reply from IRCC but I can't find it.
Well they already added 70 secretly above the 20,000.
Online it says 20-24 months.
