This is weird because I see some people in Facebook groups receiving theiri have some bad news , just finished a long call with IRCC agent , the situation as follows :
family sponsorships are NOT included in prioritized application and they are only doing application for essential workers and work permits.
*the explanation of ( on or before march 18 ) means they didn't issue any visa for PR after that date and not planning to untill further notice so even if there is any visa issued after that they are not exempted from the restrictions
*the hold on files and delays are coming from canada in the first place and then the embassy's so even if the embassy want to issue the visa canada still didn't give the OK to do so
* they have no planned or estimated date when they will allow new immigrants visas to be issued and processed
*12 months processing time is not valid now and for sure there will be more delays
am sorry to bring the bad news but i wanted to share the info
