2025 H&C Applications: Post your updates and questions

[Deleted member 1294351]

A thread for individuals who have submitted H&C applications in 2025. As the immigration trajectory has shifted in 2025, this is a good place for 2025 applications to share timelines and results.

Realistically other than AOR most will not hear anything about their 2025 H&C for years unless there are reforms to the system or this is not their first application. You are probably better off following the general thread.

There is no doubt that this has become a conglomerated and "hail mary" application stream that needs reform. However, I thought it would be interesting to keep a more keen eye on 2025 applications to see the timelines. For example, best interest of child from a parent who has really established themselves here vs international student that just didn't plan very well.

Thats a hyperbole. 2-3 years for non urgent applicants perhaps.

Sadly not a hyperbole for 2025 applicants unless the process is reformed.

Do you know when the inventory numbers will be updated again? I think the current numbers are from fall 2024?

No idea but almost 100% guarantee they will be higher than 2024.

Of course.

Of course

It’s the low trust inventory

 

[canuck78]

Of course.

Which just means longer processing and urgent need to reform this program.

Stop application intake all together?

"It’s the low trust inventory"
Can you elaborate? I am guessing you mean all the rejected and unqualified applicants for other streams.

70k are in inventory according to one lawyer in youtube. This represents significant increase from 50k inventory in 2024.

Don’t think that represents 2025 data but fall 2024 data if I remember correctly.
