I applied for urgent processing 45 day ago...

Not sure why my file was chosen for secondary review ... I have more than 800 days.

Not sure why my file was chosen for secondary review ... I have more than 800 days.

I've noticed that people applying with a low number of days in Canada (be it barely meeting the 730-day requirement, or a little over it - like yours) have been consistently getting their applications sent for secondary review, especially those applying for urgent processing.

I applied over 7 months ago as regular processing, waited almost 5 months and then decieded to write to them about urgent processing. Not sure if it was the urgent processing request that made them start working on my file faster. I say 7 to 10 months is the standard for secondary review from what i have read in this website.
