IRCC because of COVID-19 process outland applications within a lots of delay and now what is the main reason ??? i do not understand
why they do not give us some clear answers
Good to know! So it's possible that my wife and I would be exempted from redoing biometrics since we already did them and they show that they're still valid.
nothing!!

What's the percentage of your application and have you noticed any difference in your application under Review of additional documents?
That's at least something indicates that your documents were received by their end. Is 52% considered a good indicator though? Mine is still at 50%.
This really doesn't mean anything. Once they finish background check processing, it jumps to 100%. And some people got the 100%, and they're still waiting. I just hope we'll be done by the end of this year.
Yes, they won't ask for biometrics if you have done them in the past 10 years. The agent that I talked with earlier today was saying that you will be refunded once the file completeness check is done (I believe might be referring to the eligibility review and background check ) because it doesn't make sense that you have gone this far in the process and they haven't yet done with the completeness check. Though the agent said that I couldn't check your file due to the priority policy in place. Don't understand how the whole process works. I thought once you receive AOR, medical passed and the last step of pre-arrival received, you are done!
This is what I have received from IRCC when I have submitted a web-form. Few months back it was covid 19, now its due to the high volume of queries they receive from Afghanistan. I am not sure how much longer this process will take. Good luck to all…

I received the same reply on 27th August. I am thinking of raising the web form again this week but it seems useless though. How pathetic we can`t do anything besides waiting, waiting & waiting.
