I have the exact same timeline as well. Have you received your card yet? I haven't.
Is the 17 month time frame from the date of application received OR from 'we sent you correspondence...'?
Note: there is
NO particular timeline for SR in processing a PR card application. Timeline in the individual case depends more on the particular facts and circumstances and history of that PR. The timeline is largely
unrelated to how long it has taken someone else referred for SR.
A lot of the discussion in this topic is misleading to the extent it suggests commonality among those going through SR.
SR is a highly individual process. It is not directly about questioning whether the PR met the PR Residency Obligation, even if concerns about the PR's RO compliance were a factor in triggering the SR.
Thus, how long yours will take is
NOT dependent on either 17 months from the date of your application
NOR from date correspondence was sent.
Sure, some of the timeline information in this topic indicates how long it might be for some, and that is some information. But again, how it actually goes for any particular individual is subject to many other factors which will have more influence in how long it takes. After all, if the
suspicion IRCC has (SR is primarily about more thoroughly reviewing PRs suspected of fraud or security issues) is readily resolved, the SR will not take so long; if it requires referring inquiries to overseas authorities or to CSIS for investigation, those cases tend to take quite a lot longer; referrals to CBSA for investigation take somewhere in-between.
