Congratulations! I wish you all the best in Canada.
1. Please, do you have a family in Canada? 2. If you do, are they protected person(s)? 3. When did your family apply for PR.
4. When did they receive PR?

Thank you.

I am just surprised at the speed of processing; 2 months for the principal applicant and 9 months for the dependent outside Canada. This must be a record. We have dependents here waiting for 4 years and counting. Is there something special/different about this application that we need to know?

I don’t know if they are in a special program or something, but it seems that there is a wide gap between applications and it all depends on the officer processing the file

2 months of the principal applicant?? This will not happen in the express entry program.
And if this really happened it should be under a very special program.

Best of luck for you.

I was super surprised myself when I saw the timeline yesterday but honestly I think God just favored this family.
It also made me conclude that this process that we have all been waiting for can actually be done in 3 months and yet it's been 53 months and still counting. I don't know what's missing or what's going on, what I know definitely is that whatever has a beginning must surely have an end someday.

Congratulations once again to your family. Cheers

Hi,
Is this for your pr application after you received positive NOD or for your overseas dependents? 50 months too much. Processing time shows 24 months.
