Hi,

One thing that I don't understand is how come you have only 5 days left to reach average processing time as yous application received by CIC on May 14. You still have 1 whole month to wait... Keep faith you are almost there.
Why do you say I have a month to wait? I copied this from cic website-

Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) calculates processing times from the day CIC receives an application to the day it makes a decision on the application.

All this to say processing time should be calculated from the date the application was received and not the date AOR was received.

So it will be May 14- May 14 which means on May 14 it will be 12 months. It is April right now

Totally Agree!!!

There are also ideas that it is when Ottawa gets the application - BULLOCKS!

I called 2 times to cic agent for this Q. Answer which I got sharing with you. (Both time answer was same)
- Processing time calculate from the day application transferred from NS office to processing centre .
Example your application reached as NS on 15th Feb. You got AOR ON 15th March and your application transferred to Processing office on 10th Apr.

So your Processing time counter will start form 10th Apr.

Hope this will help you
Good Luck

I am not saying both agent whom I talked provided me correct info .
But the way one of them was talking looks quite confident
and I had other queries also which she clarified

Good Luck

I guess they need somehow to justify their inefficiency :)
it is says average is 12 months and from the point you send your application to cic, what they do and how proceed it is their issues. my second review was put on 15 Jan and then it is postpone to due date with 31 March, I assume they did not touch it on 31 st as well as they are still looking files for March applicants. applicants for July are already receiving their pr, but cic did not even have started second review for April and May Application.
some EE already received their pr.
I prefer them being more honest and telling that they had volume of other applications or a priority is other type of applications, but not changing the rules(interpretation of rules) in the middle of the process :)
I will always tell it was really not fair to send to second review the application because of VO is junior or prefer not to make a decision. and delaying the process for many months .
