it's really frustrating that in Ontario they had already PR , it took them 6,7 to 8 months , and for Quebec applicants , it takes 11 to more than 12 months
QC applicants only have to show one year of income and can use other financial resources versus just income so many QC applicant qualify for PGP faster than other applicants. The processing time might be slower but you still come out ahead.

Your timeline helped to understand the waiting time. It’s been a month since I have received my Accuse de reception from MIDI... hopefully in a week or two I shall be getting mine too. Thank you for answering and sharing your timeline! I appreciate !

You're welcome. Please also note their webpage mentions that they are currently receiving an exceptional volume of family sponsorship cases and it has become impossible to meet the 25-day deadline.

***Status Update***
PR + OWP app received: Mar 14
AOR : April 27
CSQ invitation from IRCC: May 1
CSQ applied: May 30
CSQ AOR: June 13
OWP approved: July 23 ** (email received today with the document number and validity) ***
CSQ: In process

Please note: because I applied restoration first then I applied for PR + OWP, that’s why my OWP is approved now after the approval of my “restoration of status” and when the 4 months are completed.

P.S. I phoned IRCC and reminded them that since 4 months have passed and my status has been restored as well; therefore, I am entitled to the OWP now. So they sent the message to the case officer on July 15; thus, After a week they have approved my OWP today.

Great!! Congratulations!!

This is a 2018 thread you almost confused me with your 2019 timeline. Just in case someone also gets confused it is good to write the year. :)

Hello Everyone,

I'm new to this thread even tho I'm a November 2018 Quebec applicant.
I received my CSQ on Feb 1, 2019. But since then, I haven't received any more news, not even Med request.
Is this something to worry? What can I do in this case?
Please someone give me some advice. Thanks a lot

Advice: call IRCC, it does not look right.
