Hi all, I wanted a picture of how many
FSW-O India applicants IRCC has processed already. I filtered for Indian citizens living in India who applied under FSW-O in the month of Dec 2018 and have received their PPR. This returned 32 out of a total of 137 reported cases, meaning
IRCC has processed only about 23% of such cases so far. If your application hasn't been touched yet, you're in the majority.
Some observations:
1.
The 23% figure drops to 14% (!!) when you include both "active" and "inactive" cases on ImmiTracker. 94 cases have gone cold because people have had nothing to update, bringing the total reported cases to 231. (You have to take this with a pinch of salt, of course, because many people may never return to update their cases.)
2. One of these 32 cases was completed at Sydney, two at NDVO, and
all of the rest at Ottawa! If you’re at CPC-Ottawa keep up the vigil!
3. There is a wide mix of number of dependents from 1 to 4, so that doesn’t seem to be having an impact.
4. Completed cases have AOR dates of all over December, so processing is only "loosely" first-come-first-served.
