I will consider your opinion when you wait for 30 months without a hearing.
You propbaly just arrived.
Maybe Send a hand written letter to Minister Hussein's office? Who knows might empathize with you, anything honestly. Does anyone know of any other way to plead to IRB? Other than sending letters to registrar? Over the phone they really don't offer any help, most of the time not even answer

Samer, you can ask the MP of your area to contact the IRB.

Nobody can tell you, your chances it depends on your case. Short hearing is just to clear a few things up that the member wants to ask.

Either there is a strong chance of approval or denial. All depends on you case. Most have no previous claims and it looks like you have 2H&C claims so very hard to comment.

Does anyone have an idea about the NOVA system the IRB uses to schedule people? I hear it's not by turn but rather preferences as in family size, and reasons for claim, as well as member availability/ familiarity with country. If so the system is no longer fair like this I feel

Nobody said it was 100% fair. There are certain members that have specific knowledge about an area and are best qualified to know the history of the country and any cultural nuances that will be important for the ruling. People who crossed the border and not at a legal border crossing are also being prioritized especially in cases where they should be declined. There is also the separation of cases into a less complex cases which allows many to be processed in at least half the time. You have only applied in October 2018 and are lucky enough to be classified as least complex. You will get processed faster than the large majority of applicants. It is just not as fast as you want.
