So technically you’re still within the 11 month processing window. not much you can do.
True, they told me to just wait. However, they also told me that the processing times do not apply for those who completed P1 and P2
Which is technically correct. Once you receive your eCOPR as an inland applicant you're considered landed and have access to all services. The ability to re-enter the country in a hurry isn't really their problem since you're an inland applicant. Having said this - the delays on this process are total b*llsh*t so I'm sympathetic. With the amount of money these overpaid bureaucrats have wasted they could have had a much better process. Not to mention that they raise the applicant fees every year so... Where exactly is that money going if the process gets MORE painful.
What do they mean by the processing time no longer applies after P1 and P2?
Meaning when you have your signed eCOPR you're considered landed and they have fulfilled their obligations to the quoted average processing time.
Yeah, I don't understand why we still need to wait after the process is technically done. Having a number for the document with obtaining the document itself is also interesting. It looks like it has something to do with meeting some quotas, but different visa offices issue and process things at different times as well.
