I don’t believe this is true. If you check the Imm Tracker you will see India and China applicants being approved last week.

Yep I heard about quota before. However it seems illogical as people from sept getting ppr and us june and older candidates r still waiting. CIC also removed stat sata of how many copr issued for the month may and june from their site.they used to update it monthly.
I'm suspecting technical issues, the reason for the Repetitive planned maintenance, also for the delays experienced by june applicants, I think that something gone wrong with our data or with their system
I would gladly resend every piece of paper I’ve sent already to sort their data issue 
Also, it seems nonsense having a yearly quota and at the same time, keep raising the amount of ITAs

Also I guess if they really wanted to enact such a quota (if it exists ) better would be to apply at ITA stage rather than keeping candidates waiting and guessing post ITA. That’s cruel !!!I would gladly resend every piece of paper I’ve sent already to sort their data issue

May and June data r back again. @cansha u r the right person to deal with these files:

I wish I was a july applicantI would gladly resend every piece of paper I’ve sent already to sort their data issue

Very interesting, data showing that ircc don't even reach half what they did the last year, this lift my spirits
Even september AORs are getting PPRs, I won’t be picky, I wish I were anything but a June AOR
Possibly- and yeah ethnic and cultural diversity is important to the Canadian government. But I think there might be other, more pressing factors, such as labor market needs!
Labor market needs put certain professions more in demand than others. Express entry is after all an economic immigration program! :O and it was instituted to strengthen Canada's workforce.
So, for example, if an LMIA shows that Canada needs more software engineers in the current economy, then software professionals might be likely to be processed quicker than others. My two cents
There might also be quotas based on profession or qualifications- just based on the number of jobs that are projected in various fields. Again, these professional quotas may only exist for economic immigration programs like express entry. So that's my four cents now.

My colleague with same work profile, same education background, similar travel history applied in July and received his PPR last week. Believe there are no patterns or sequence. If there were, I wonder what logic would explain him getting it earlier than a June applicant.
Hello people...so I am July 19th AOR,ip2Nov 8,I called cic (on tue,nov 20th)and spoke with an agent who said my app has been approved but has been sent to my local VO who will get in touch with me on how to send my passport...my app was approved in ottawa...pls has anybody encountered this before?
Hi! Yes, if you read a few pages back in the thread, you'll see quite a few are experiencing the exact same thing right now. Seems all you can do is wait
Guys, quick question. How important is it to inform CIC about international travel post Application?
I had traveled for 15 days to US 3 months after my AoR, but haven't informed. Is that OK?

Yes. There is no need to inform of travel post AOR unless you’re moving on permanent basis.
For those who received PPRs - I’ve heard that the photograph specifications aren’t very straight forward, is that true?
Can someone plz copy-paste what you’ve seen about it? Also, where in US people usually get their photographs from? Do you click at home and get them printed some where? Or visiting studio is recommended?
I’m taking my PPR hopes to the next level and keeping everything ready
