Wow, look what a favour that the policy/government have offered us:
Paying $1135 on application alone + $355+ on medical exam which are basically non-sense exams and keeping the lucrative immigration GP and labs survives + $300+ IELTS/CELPIP exam and for someone taking multiple times that's a loot + optional thousands on immigration consultant.
It seems like man you got too much money in your pocket, why don't you share some with us or donate to Canadian gov?
You think anyone has a choice between CEC and TR to PR? Us international students can barely find works here and some are lucky to get their first job before May 6.
I applied for TRV last October 2020 and since then the status was like submitted and no webform or phone response. Of course, you can leave the country, but for someone who has been in Canada for over 10 years like me and hasn't got a PR status since a teen there just too much to lose. Once you travel abroad you loss your PGWP and Canadian work experience. The IRCC are smarter than you, they want you be here as long as possible, cares nothing whether you employed or not because you spend and contribute to the Economy as long as you breathing.
SO plzzzz if you got too much money in your pocket, why don't you share some with us or donate to the Canadian gov?
Truth is, this new policy TR - PR is a Favour from the government to many people. Honestly, IRCCcan decide to take as much time as they want and there is nothing anyone can do about it. It is disheartening but that is the reality. That is why it is called a public policy.
If anyone is not satisfied or feels the TR - PR is too slow for them, they can try CEC, no one is stopping them. Life is a choice, we all made our choices!
