Hi, Do you know how much it takes time to get PPR after Ghost Update for a Work Permit visa?

Stop spam useless messages. GU are not meaningless :faceplam
I mean, Legalfalcon who's an actual Immigration lawyer agrees with me: https://www.canadavisa.com/canada-immigration-discussion-board/threads/thank-you-legalfalcon.408185/page-347#post-6636032

I get your saltiness, but we are all grown-ups here. The meaningless, dumb belief on ghost updates meaning anything when in reality no one can correlate it with anything is stupid.

There's literally only one GCKey change that has been successfully attributed in the past, everything else has been meaningless.

You are quoting a message from legalfalcon that is 6 years old, and moreover, you are quoting it completely out of context. Additionally, he does not "agree" with you, so don't distort the facts. You claim that GU (Ghost Updates) are "meaningless," which is an absolute misconception. GU are case updates; they indicate that there have been changes to your case and that they have been submitted. Do they provide extensive information? No, but that is not the same as being "meaningless." If your case went through a fast immigration process and you lack experience dealing with IRCC or haven't encountered enough GU to understand when this happens, you shouldn't mislead people. And don't say that believing in something you don't fully understand is "stupid." It's stupid when you don't fully grasp the situation, distort the facts, and mislead people.

No point in dragging this, but unless you can point to document that says GU means anything, it is what it is, fluff. It could be a system update or a process error too. Hardly any reason to correlate it with anything.
