Good day all,

Our application is 72% complete with 52 days left until 6 months is up.
At what point does one receive pre-arrival services? Its frustrating as other visa offices around the world send pre-arrival services mail out very early and the Pretoria office seems to drag its feet.
Pretoria office is nothing to talk about , they are very slow and ridiculous, I got my pre-arrival service invitation after 13 months of waiting and am still waiting for PPR , my Aplication is over 19 month going to 20 months now. The last message I got from them is that they apologize for the delay and the will contact me soon decision is made . You need to be patient with them , Pretoria is just another ridiculous office . Just keep waiting .

Congrats on getting pre arrival. What date did you receive it? Is it possible they can forget or skip an application?

No i dont think they will skip the pre-arrival as it is a service provided by the Canadian Govt on behalf of IRCC so your will definitely hit your email account.

Thank you so much! Always worried to contact IRCC through webform as I dont want to annoy them.
Really hoping for an update soon as my wife's employer is getting really annoyed that this is taking so long. She wanted my wife to start last year September already.
But you must provide your information

Do you know what the hold up is? Is it a complex case?
