My last one took 25 daysHi guys, how long does ATIP take (GCMS)?
Usually around a month, but seeing your AOR was just January, I don't see what's the rush...Hi guys, how long does ATIP take (GCMS)?
Read my sig, I submitted the application in January 2023 and my LPP is still not started, so ya nothing surprises me anymoreHi,
Does anyone has the email of Sydney office. I'm waiting for LPP since March 2023 (not 2024) and in notes it's not even started!!!!
Thanks
I'm from Nov 2022Read my sig, I submitted the application in January 2023 and my LPP is still not started, so ya nothing surprises me anymore
Have you got your MP involved? If so, what was the response?I'm from Nov 2022
Nothing, they contacted them twice and each time they tell them non-routine or the processing time is calculated from the FP request and a lot of non-sense that I doubted they contacted IRCC but found the two MP calls in the notes!Have you got your MP involved? If so, what was the response?
Wow...how about if you are not a citizen then you can't vote? Isn't that a legit enough reason?Nothing, they contacted them twice and each time they tell them non-routine or the processing time is calculated from the FP request and a lot of non-sense that I doubted they contacted IRCC but found the two MP calls in the notes!
They got annoyed from me and last communication is "Tell us why you need your application finished urgently?"!!
I think you should file mandamus with a lawyer at this point your file is stuck somewhere. It is the only way to force them reveal why it is taking this long to process your file. My whole process is been 15 months. I am planning to do it when it is 17+ monthsNothing, they contacted them twice and each time they tell them non-routine or the processing time is calculated from the FP request and a lot of non-sense that I doubted they contacted IRCC but found the two MP calls in the notes!

Do you know why is your application non-routine? Any comment about that in your GCMS notes? It has been 6 months for my AOR and not even test invite, now I am doubting if I am also a non routine guy for them.Nothing, they contacted them twice and each time they tell them non-routine or the processing time is calculated from the FP request and a lot of non-sense that I doubted they contacted IRCC but found the two MP calls in the notes!

The thing is the mandamus process itself takes a LONG time, 12 months on average from what I've been reading. On top of that you are looking at $3000-4000 lawyer fees. Another thing is the lawyers will likely only take your case if there's a good chance of either IRCC responding with a decision date or the court sides with you. The 14 months processing time on IRCC's website is only a 80% target time, so even if you hit 17 months, the argument may not be convincing enough for the court to say IRCC is at fault.I think you should file mandamus with a lawyer at this point your file is stuck somewhere.

I still think they just throw around and use the non-routine term willy nilly...and even if they don't call your file non-routine, they can still mess it up so bad that your timeline is totally offDo you know why is your application non-routine?

I guess it also depends on case basis but i saw someone from another thread they gave him an oath date in one week after submitting first stage of mandamus(there are two stages). Have you been ordering gcms notes? what do you see there?The thing is the mandamus process itself takes a LONG time, 12 months on average from what I've been reading.

I guess another depressing thing is unless many other government agencies, IRCC doesn't have a service performance standard that they have to abide to, meaning they don't HAVE to complete tasks by defined timelines. It's total baloney, but that's how they run things apparently
The "two stages" are basically first the lawyer sends a letter to IRCC and said they took a case from the client to follow up on their application, if the lawyer doesn't hear back by a certain date, the lawyer will take the case to court....sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn'tI guess it also depends on case basis but i saw someone from another thread they gave him an oath date in one week after submitting first stage of mandamus(there are two stages).
