2022 PR application timeline

@Jerry4you

There has always been a lag time before you get P1 or PPR. There is a longer period now because IRCC is trying to land people slowly over the year for quota reasons.

Since you have your Bsc in IRCC, It seems you eat, sleep and breathe this forum Canuck and always have a response..the lag you speak of is more apparent now than before..

Long story but have some time on my hands and insomnia also gives me some extra time. There is a lag across almost all IRCC programs which will continue as Canada tightens immigration all while having significant backlogs.

Saw today that the US is pausing the ability to apply for a green card as an approved asylum seeker or refugee. Life is about perspective. Yes processing is long millions in the world would trade places with you in a second.

What is the purpose of sharing this information here? Additionally, this is not accurate information. According to USCIS, the correct update states that they are “placing a temporary pause” on finalizing certain applications for legal permanent residency (green cards), not pausing the ability to apply for a green card, as you claimed. It would be better to verify information before posting in the future.

Why are you so offended if people get upset with the processing timelines? Yes we are aware its a long process but we have every right to feel upset and frustrated because we are HUMANS with emotions. Stop trying to control others emotions with your “be lucky canada even let you in” comments. You got your citizenship, awesome. Take that passport and travel instead of wasting your time on this forum sharing information we dont want or need.

I’ve noticed one thing this guy is lying, I don’t think he got his citizenship yet, he just don’t like to see people happy or getting PR

I am a citizen. I am aware that although wait times are long, Canada remains one of the most generous countries when it comes to asylum, getting PR and citizenship. All about perspective.

Your case gives me hope. I also applied in September 2022 and am waiting for portal 1. Hope I will receive it this month by God's grace.

The typical processing time has become 30 months outside Québec and 45 months inside Québec.
For every month I wait, the IRCC increase the processing time 3 months. They play such unfair game with us.

You guys, this is entirely inhuamane to put the future of thousands of families overseas at risk. It is outright human rights violation.

I do invite you all to report this to the Canadian Human rights commission via a phone call 613-995-1151

As IRCC reduces annual quotas processing times are increasing across many PR programs.

It is none of our business. The IRCC has endless alibis to keep the processing time as long as possible. We work and live in Canada and pay taxes to get world class services, not the worst immigration service on earth.
When it comes to families safety, we should urgently act.

As we didn’t know the system and how it works when we came here. Comon

Hi Canuck78,

Part of the announced policy, besides reducing annual quotas, is to reduce the temporary residents. Protected persons falls under this category.

As of Q1 2025, there are 457,000 people as per Statistics Canada under the Asylum category (refugee applicants, protected persons and related groups - including rejected, withdrawn and abandoned applications). Knowing that there are 280,000 pending applications before IRB as of March 2025, this means that there are almost 180,000 files including protected persons, rejected, withdrawn and abandoned applications..

Assuming that there are at least 50,000 as rejected, withdrawn and abandoned, this means that there are almost 130,000 files for protected persons applying for PR..

The immigration minister said earlier that the majority (60%) of new immigrants (around 360,000 annually) will be from inside Canada.

Despite all of this, refugees, whether claimants or protected persons, are always delayed.

Refugees (whether refugee claimants, protected persons or other refugee categories like government-assisted or G5, etc.) definitely feel grateful, especially when comparing Canada to other countries, yet... tens of thousands of refugees are kept separated from their families for years and years..
