I really hope we close this forum in the next month - everyone gets a test invite. Congratulations friend.

Do you mean next year? Next month is VERY ambitious but I am with you on your positivity!

And what options did you select to speak to an agent?
Heard somewhere that the IVR responses had changed recently.

It took 2 months for me to get mine.

It took 2 months for me to get mine.

Why do I not get a good feeling about my application? First the FP request, and then a 2 month delay for the GCMS...

If you look at the stats for the applicants who received FP from scarborough office take a long time to move to next stage. so be chill now(give 6 months) as i said in worse scenario withdraw and reapply through online

I think widhrawing and reapplying will make the 1 year wait absolutely useless. I would rather wait. What's the worse thay will happen? It will take 2 years, 3 years, 4 years. They will have to resolve the case through a decision at some point to clear backlog. We can always renew our PR cards for travel and keep meeting residency requirements in the meantime.
