Agreed with you bro. TBH it's not fcfs they are following for sure. I know my one friend waiting from 12:15 pm est and still have nothing even no temp number
TBH, fcfs only means first 40,000 in my opinion. It does not guarantee that Applicant 1 will get PR before applicant 2 and so on … however they do seem to be processing based on time of submission, barring a few exceptions such as some here. But TBH again, who knows why their applications are stuck and where. They are mere outliers which exist in every system.

Adding to my previous comment, who knows that although the guy got confirmation email at 12.15, it registered at a later time in the ircc database. Who can be sure right? Even in gmail, sometimes email sent times and received times differ, it’s rare but it does happen. And gmail has the most robust of data management systems. I’d say just take a break and let the thing run it’s course.

There could be a possibility of this

I have already received my AOR I was just telling the guy to be patient. We both got the same timelines however his application is not being processed yet that's why he is worried. Adding further, regarding possibilities there could be many so we cannot really predict what they are cooking behind the kitchen.

This would explain some that vary within the 10 min span. But there are some people that are randomly receiving response at 5 pm. That does not make much sense because it is too much of a time difference to be what you said

It is a good idea, but I genuinely think there is some other method they follow

Help here!!!!!!

Hi, sorry to pose this question in this thread, but I'm here because I've applied to TR to PR pathway and need some opinion as to what I should do as to this: According to what was announced on July 26th, my husband is eligible to apply for the OWP since he meets the requirements:

Family members in Canada

You’re eligible for an open work permit if you meet all of the following:


  • you’re a spouse/common-law partner or a dependent child of a principal applicant for the PR pathway
  • you must be 18 years of age or older
  • you’re in Canada
  • you apply online
  • the principal applicant is eligible for an open work permit for this public policy
  • the principal applicant included you as an accompanying family member in the PR application

His OWP expired July 31, 2020 once I graduated. Therefore, in order to maintain status and to stay in Canada he holds a visitor visa, and never left Canada since arrival in 2017.

Now.... I'm a bit lost which option he should opt when paying for the fees (which are to be paid before creating the account to apply): Work permit (including extensions) – per person or Restore your status as a worker??


Workers
Work permit (including extensions) – per person


$155.00
Work permit (including extensions) – per group (3 or more performing artists)
Maximum fee for a group of 3 or more performing artists applying at the same time and place



$465.00
Open work permit holder


$100.00
Restore your status as a worker
Restore your status ($200) and get a new work permit ($155)



$355.00

Because..... according to Step 4:

Step 4: Get your document checklist

You must answer some questions to create a personalized document checklist.

Make sure you answer these questions correctly

  • You would like to work temporarily—more than 6 months.
  • Workers and students must select “Worker” when asked What is your current immigration status in Canada?
    • For students, this is a temporary measure while we update the application system.
If you need to restore your status
  • When asked What is your current immigration status in Canada?, select “Worker”.
  • When asked When does your status in Canada expire?, enter the date that your status expired.
Again, he is "not" a worker with a permit near to expire, and according to the above, he does not meet the requirements to restore, OR does he because his permit expired last July 2020?

Please, I would appreciate if someone can clarify this to me.
THANKS!!!!!!!!!

I didn't paid the Biometrics fees because I already had one in 2019 maybe that's why?
Ohh no you didn't paid it, You never told me this, yes maybe the possible reason. Even though you had still you needed to pay that and they would have refunded you later

I did pay after 2 days when I realised that we should pay and sent the webform for that

I don’t remember anyone getting AOR with that timeline from IG stream. Who is to say they are not processing them parallelly?
If the IG counter at 5 pm was 20,000 (let’s say) and for essential healthcare only 500, do you think the 500 th guy should be in line with 20,000 from another stream? I’m guessing they may have assigned agents based on the load of each stream and working in parallel. Let’s say 100 agents for IG stream and 5 and 2 for the other.

Biometric fee won’t stop them from issuing you an AOR. However, they need to know what all documents they need at the time of ADR. They wanna link your previous medical/biometrics etc. to know this. Plus if you sent a webform, which you did, they need to link it as well. Maybe they are not able to locate one of these documents. And with people submitting webforms left right and centre, it’s not making life any easier for them. Just speculating !!

I think in your case, it is better talk to an expert, consultant, or lawyer.
I believe your case is ok, but don't know how to fill the form to make sure it will be correct according to the policy.

That's the same case with my friend M**** . He forgot to pay the biometrics fees and later paid it and sent it via webform, after receiving the AOR and now his file is on hold. He received AOR on june 3 and already got the webform confirmation. All docs upfront still no one touched his file again.
