beyond ridiculous isn't it. 120 days past and still nothing started.

Oh well, long painful wait continues
Sorry, but what do you mean ridiculous?

Everyone was told that the processing time is 6 months - unless you exceeded that, you can't blame IRCC.

Some people want their applications approved in 1-2 months, fair enough, but we were all made aware of the fact that it's 6 months, we signed up for that.

Be patient, wait for your 6 months processing time, anything less than that can't be considered "slow", "ridiculous", or "unfair"

Just giving out my thought, regardless, I wish everyone the best and a timely processing of the application.

Thanks !

Ofcourse I know what I signed up for and I am also aware processing time is 6 months. It's past 4 months but file hasn't been touched since December now that's what I call slow while others are getting movement.

Ofcourse, every case is different. I am also aware that my file will probably not be processed within 6 months timeline and I am fine with that too because at the end of the day as long as I get the PPR I don't care how long it takes but I am just pointing out that some files are just left untouched past 120 days.

Guys, what is the average waiting time after paying RPRF to get PPR? Also, are there still any chances of objection/ additional documents demand after paying RPRF? My AOR is 17 Nov 2018, medical passed: 20 Dec; RPRF paid: 9 Jan 2019. Now no updates since then
Its case to case based. There is no set timeframe for getting PPR after rprf. I paid rprf on Dec 12th(Nov 1 aor). My file is still in the same status ever since.

Yes, ADR or rejection after RPRF payment is still possible. Payment of RPRF doesn't guarantee anything.

Unless you have your GCMS notes, there is no way to know whether your file is touched or not.

there is no set time it depends on the case . secondly , after the RPRF chances of rejection is minuscule.

hi,
After getting our ita there was a delay from our side to submit our documents since we couldn’t get a pcc from Dubai so we applied for extension and we were granted 60 days. We submitted our all the documents and pcc before the deadline and was waiting to hear a response from cic for our visa on 23rd February we completed our 90 days but we haven’t got any response yet. Our profile has been updated to “process taking longer”
I wanted to know is this usual?
Are there good chances of being rejected at this stage?

Fair enough, but there’s a statement on every online application saying “you might not hear from us for a little while, most of the processing happens closer to your estimated completion date” or something along those lines. IRCC made it clear in every aspect that it will take 6 months to process, that you won’t hear from them for a little while, and have also provided a small table for the processing stage.

Again, the table might not be accurate to a tee, but at least it provides “some” insight on the processing of your application.

Honestly, I wouldn’t bother calling unless I have crossed the 6 months mark which they indicated.

I understand it might be pretty frustrating seeing people getting approvals in 1-3 months or below the allocated 6 months timeframe, but everyone’s situation is different.

I respect your approach of calling, email, or requesting GCMS notes - if you have done so (despite my reservation of its effectiveness before crossing the 6 months mark)

Again, I wish everyone the best and a timely processing of the application.

Good luck to all !

What you're not taking into account is the serious nature of the subject matter. Getting PR is not a trip to a local restaurant. Many people consider this a life changing event and their lives highly depend on the outcome.
While you're right that we were given a time frame, the seriousness of the situation and a huge inequality in a way how these applications are processed, make it tough to handle.

It's not that others are getting PPRs in 2-3 months that is frustrating but the fact that you're 4 months since AOR with your application being untouched and you still have the same chances of rejection as you did when you were 30 days after AOR while others are getting PPRs in these 2-3 months.

You said that everyone's situation is true and you're right. A lot depends on the recommendation of an analyst. But in order for an analyst to make a recommendation, he/she firstly needs to look at your application, which means that in order for the situation to become different, they have at least start doing assessments.

You have the same aor as another person does. After 60 days his/her eligibility is marked as "RR". Yours is not even started. 60 days more he is in process of fixing the issue and your eligibility is still not even started. Then 30 days later your eligibility finally is recommended as "RR". And now your path to PR starts from this point, which is 5 months after AOR, while another person with the same issue is 3 months ahead of you in fixing his "RR".

Hey, I would like to comment that as Canada Gov's ambition of accepting millions of immigrants but obviously they do not have sufficient manpower and effective management system to handle the number, most of us have to suffer this long waiting time. I appreciate Canada that its opening policy of immigration, and I am ok with 6 months waiting. But not with these unclear reviewing process. At least there needs to be a guideline explaining facts such as priority and workload of VO around the world. Now a simple process bar does not help anyone, even it is just an automatic time clock, other than the real job done checklist. Several of my Nov AOR friends got PPR already, and I see no big differences between us unless VO can tell me what they are. So unclear process will continue to make every applicant suffer.
