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.
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 !
