Please can someone assist here, I will really appreciate it
The processing time at the time of your application (11 months) was just an estimate based on past cases, and it isn’t a guarantee. If IRCC has now updated the estimated processing time to 21 months, that means newer applications are generally taking longer, but it doesn’t necessarily mean your case will take that long.
Since you passed medicals in October 2024, the next major stages are eligibility, criminality, and security checks. You may receive a request for additional documents (if needed) or a portal request (if approved) at any time.
To estimate your timeline, count from your AOR date (August 28, 2024):
• 11 months estimate: July 2025
• 21 months estimate: May 2026
Your application could be completed anywhere in this range, depending on workload and complexity.
