Yayyyyyy - ok fingers crossed, will hopefully have a new update soon :)


Feb 3rd - Application Submitted
Feb 24th - AOR +BIL
Feb 27th - Biometrics Completed
March 21st - Pre-Arrival Services + Passed Upfront Medical Exam
April 1st - Final Decision - "Your application is in progress"
April 8th - Called IRCC as I didn't see any updates in my portal; the agent confirmed that Eligibility, Medical, Biometrics, Background were all passed (+ no need for additional documents) + Final Decision was also Approved. Waiting to get P1 now (agent couldn't give me a time estimate on when those emails would be sent).

Worth noting that the IRCC portals are meant to go through a lot of restructuring in the next few months, might cause a bit of disruption.

Hi @Dakku - still no update on my end. My educated guess based on different testimonies across different websites is that a lot of the cases submitted/admitted this year which had a fast early processing curve (like yours or mine) have either been deprioritized to land other cases (we are afterall well within processing times) or stalled to not fill up quotas too fast. With that, it seems like a lot of people with similar profile to ours have been waiting 4 to 5 weeks before receiving P1 (after the switch to FD processing).

I think it's relatively safe to assume that your eligibility and background check have passed for this FD status to have appeared. I reckon you and I will both get P1 in the first two weeks of May.

(also, after double checking with IRCC on my end, my FD status hasn't actually changed to completed yet, but I was basically told I could assume as much)

Thanks for the info, I also have a FD on april 1st but haven't received the P1 yet 2 weeks later.
I'll try to call IRCC in the next days. Friend of mine who was around 3 weeks ahead of me in timeline got their P1 immediately after FD.
