In 2018 and 2019 there was a lot of application That’s why process timeframe was up to 36 months in 2020 and 2021 not too many application that’s why the process way Faster
3 months up to 12 months

Ayanna, what I don’t understand is how come people who apply after get processed first? Shouldn’t they have like a “line”? Thanks for always answering. That’s so kind of you.

Every case is different some cases are thin and some are thick
Thick means which is inadmissible issues like medical criminality and misrepresentation etc
Those ones take longer process up to 36 months
Thin means very simple
maybe your case is very simple that’s why they started processing your application faster

yes my partner has similar timeline. Got AOR in 3 weeks and went in process immediately. Every year IRCC makes processing improvements and it becomes more efficient. Manual processes are automated etc. When I applied for citizenship in 2017, it was the same - I got it in 6 months and people who applied 2-3 years before me were still waiting. This is why quite often it is just faster to start an application from scratch than try to rescue an old application from the backlog. If we followed our lawyer's recommencation and filed a judicial review for his refused HC back in March 2021, we would have to wait until March 2022 (at least) for the judge to decide whether it deserves reconsideration and reassigning to a different officer (and pay 15,000$).

And here we are with an AIP at hand for a fresh HC filed in April 2021 and 15K saved.

Your are the best
thanks Be bless!You are too kind!
Also, being under removal/deportation order helps to accelerate processing - if your CbSA officer is nice, they would gently ask IRCC to expedite your file. I think this is what happened with my partner. He was scheduled for deportation in June.

bear in mind that lots of HC applications are submitted without "true" HC grounds - no establishment in Canada, no best interest of children etc. Just people using HC route as a gamble/lottery because they do not qualify under economic class. These kinds of files gather dust for years and years, stuck in processing. Truly urgent files do get IRCC'a attention much faster these days and they have made a lot of operational improvements to process faster. Keep faith and don't give up. This is our third HC application :)

Mine was same day, and next day rejected.
Sorry I don’t want to say this but this is reality.
I guess your officer and mine will be same, “i hope not”
Think twice what you want to do next.
