You raised a valid point. In fact we discussed this at home. They don’t want any one noc flooding the system. Interesting times … let’s wait and watch … what else can we do honestly!! LolHaving chatted about this with others about how IRCC works I think there are a lot of factors they are looking at when they're deciding who gets processed first. I've started to think they are going through the applications in order of submission, but have specific things they are looking for such as certain NOC codes, the places where we've said we intend to live, age, dependents etc. and it's all to do with what the government need to fill where first. They will be the people getting pulled out first to be processed. They obviously have a need for immigrants working in some occupations more urgently than in others. We're in the IG stream but we still had to say which NOC code we were currently working in. Similarly, if they've just processed 200 applicants for say Vancouver, they might skip a few people saying they wanted to live in Vancouver so that it gets shared out equally across the country. For example, I'm NOC code 4012 in small-town BC - they just might not need that many research assistants urgently in a rural town (I work from home) so I don't get priority processing... this is my guess now. If it's true then it's a bit frustrating as for people waiting like myself (fsss, Tomican, Sabpreet, plender etc.) we don't know if we'll be processed this week, next week... next month, or after they've got to the end of 40,000 applicants and then come back to the beginning. It just depends on what they're directed to do each week by the big important people...
I spoke with an IRCC agent again earlier this week and he said the biggest mistake we all make is comparing each others timelines as every application is treated differently - so I'm thinking this will be my last post for a while as I'm gonna peace out for a while and just try to forget about it until I get that notification in my inbox! Now that we know it doesn't seem to be fifo it's actually more annoying seeing all the AORs being compared than it is helpful
I'm also eligible to join the EE pool next month under CEC... who knows, maybe I'll also do that. Good luck in the meantime guys!

The principal applicant (you) is eligible for an owp under this policy? Are you eligible? I don’t think so as you already have a PGWP. That’s why he is not eligible. Don’t get offended please, it’s just what I gathered from the information you provided. Poking further, are you applying for an open work permit under this policy? If your answer is no, then you yourself answered your question. Thank you.
Well, if just post update only, then there are not many people come to this forum and participate actively.
Why do people have to tell everyone I got this, got that for nothing then disappear from forum? No communication, no question, no sharing etc....Then it will turn to dead forum. The reality is behind the aka/nick/number there is real human beings, not a robots.
Btw, I total agree that we should not go to long on an issue, or personal stuff.

I thing the issue here is the FOCUS (or lack of it) of the thread.Well, if just post update only, then there are not many people come to this forum and participate actively.

The focus should be updates so everyone can have an idea where the process is, but some conversation helps keeping things alive.
How to put things together?
Well... in the beginning of the thread, the participants were putting their timeline in their signature and updating it accordingly (just look how I did - it was just copied).
And this was a pretty nice way to simultaneously have conversation and sharing updates. You open the thread, see the signature of the last posts and know where the stuffs are. If you want to Q-A, so Q-A! No problem.
Now it seems that this nice practice was lost and we need to navigate a bit to find the last time someone shared any updates among the chat and... puft... so annoying...
I guess it would be very good if we could bring this good practice back alive. Everyone could be pleased.

if you go on telegram and discord groups you will see the discussion is the same. So to avoid going overboard let everyone have some freedom. This is a discussion forum (Comes from forum name itself) not a billboard.
@NA2000 , concerning your sentence "let everybody have some freedom" (that seems to me as a wish to be a Marvel-super-hero-defending-the-freedom-of-the-people-from-the-tirany-of-someone-who-has-to-be-a-villain), I would like to remember you of the following part of my previous post: "If you want to Q-A, so Q-A! No problem."
I have no idea where you took this idea from that I wanted to remove any sort of freedom from anyone... maybe too much super-hero movies?

just to clarify that the sentence is not directed at you " So to avoid going overboard let us have everyone have some freedom. "
I am not defending anyone. I am just pointing to the fact that flow of information is good at our current rate even though some times its mixed with emotions.
You can upload that via webform use amendment of documents and in your query put your UCI and application number if you have received BIL or AOR. If you haven't received anything yet then they won't accept the webform
