Most of the people get rejection right away. User
rjoy.singh had to wait for 4 days after
Decision Made before he got rejection letter.
When I was preparing the dataset for the calculator I read whole
Rejection thread (and it's like 100 pages). Here are the signs of rejection:
1. In MyCIC Background check goes from
In Progress to
Not needed at this time.
2. There has been no movement on your application for a long time (one guy was rejected after 4.5 months with no movement on his application).
3. ECAS goes
Decision Made 2 months after application was submitted.
4. Most of the rejections happen 2-3 months after application was submitted.
Those of us who have been waiting for 4-5 months and now have
Decision Made don't have to worry - it's a positive decision. Statistics says you have to be very unlucky to be rejected after application went
ECAS In Process.
