Good to see FSW inland applications being approved. My GCMS notes say - "Reassessment has been granted and a new medical certificate with a validity of 12 months has been granted. Should the applicant not land before the expiry of the medical, a new IME will be required. Please pick up the IME number again in order to update the medical validity on the application". Does this mean I have to redo my medicals?

I think it's going at the same pace as before (about two FSW-Inland PPRs being issued per month on this worksheet)...

The numbers for the past year:
21-Aug: 2
21-Jul: 3
21-Jun: 2
21-May: 1
21-Apr: 2
21-Mar: 1
21-Feb: 0
21-Jan: 6
20-Dec: 0
20-Nov: 5
20-Oct: 1
20-Sep: 3
20-Aug: 3

Before August 2020, there were about 6-8 FSW-inland PPR/month and before the pandemic hit, there were about 15-30/month.

Of course, it is only a sample of the real application numbers, but I think this data is useful for us to understand the current trends.

It seems like they are processing less and less of the FSW applications each month. Unfortunately, the data doesn't separate it into Inland and Outland.

PS: I created this chart using a worksheet from Canada's open data portal.

Correct me if I am wrong, if there are 375K backlog and they are processing 10-12K files per month, does it mean it will take at least 30 months (2.5 years) to clean the backlog even if there is no new pool entry?

375k backlog is for all PR categories and not just Express entry. Ranging from the much broader Economic class to Family, Refugees and humanitarian streams. So it’s best not to over analyze it

I don't think it really matters because these are just different streams to immigrate to Canada.. In the end, the same IRCC officers are processing all of them.
