Currently the waiting time for FSW application to ve processed is about 30 months. Does it mean that all applicants will need to wait about 30 months, or sone applications may be processed for 18 month for example?
Each stream has different processing time targets, backlogs, etc.Thats good. I just read a post of an immigration lawyer. She said for the 2022 they processed about 918000 of all cases, and still there is around 1 million. So there is a chance that by the fall, processing times will decrease very much. And also said that she see many FSW applications are processed within around 18 months

Personally I always focused on FSW as this is the stream I applied for.
When it comes to FSW-O, there are still old, pre-covid applications stuck in the system but there are relatively few of them. New applications are being processed very fast but of course things can always change. Plus then you have to wait for COPR which can sometimes add another couple of months.
It's best to plan for 6-12 months of processing time but there's high probability that it maybe under 6 months.
My application was done in 7 weeks. There are plenty of others on this forum who had theirs done from around 6 weeks (I think the record was 4 weeks) to 4 months. Of course, there are plenty that take longer but I still think that around 6 months is perfectly realistic.FSWP is going through changes so we have no idea what processing times will be like when more targeted applications are selected. Think under 6 months isn’t currently realistic.
Read through posts above. New applications are being processed MUCH quicker. 30 months was an anomaly due to Covid-related delays.Holy crap, is it really 30 freaking months??? Most people I know are getting it within 6 months. is 30 months the maximum time, or average time?
Current FSW applications are getting approved in 25 to 35 days. CEC 4 monthsCurrently the waiting time for FSW application to ve processed is about 30 months. Does it mean that all applicants will need to wait about 30 months, or sone applications may be processed for 18 month for example?
