Received one too. This is just another example of the ministry's incompetence. How can they be starting to process the 2020 applications before completing the 2019 ones.
Same as here. Its shameful... I dont know untill when they will use Covid as an excuse... every body can work with the new normal except these guys
And the big lie here is "we are still actively processing your Family Class "... but we just wanted to let you know : even when you all are working so hard during the pandemic we are not because we want to use Covid as an excuse ... Juts another BS
 
We submitted our passport on jan 25 that just got it today back.

Joyus
2 months.. i guess we have a long way to go. I was hoping to get passport back sooner so they could travel in May or June. Now it may change
 
exactly...covid is just another convenient excuse
 
Just received an email from IRCC with:
Update on IRCC processing capacity for your Family Class – Parents and Grandparents application
Due to the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), we’re experiencing longer than usual processing delays. Rest assured, we are still actively processing your Family Class – Parents and Grandparents application, but it will take longer than usual to get back to you....
Same email I got

Is it definite that they have already started on the 2020 applications? If so, this does NOT seem right. Sigh.

seems like all the applicants in 2020 already received their invitation letter. Soon they will submit theirs. This is so ridiculous when CIC start on 2020 applications and we are still being stuck.
At least they have to give us a result before doing anything next, no matter what the result is. I also received this delaying COVID excuse letter and I did not even get my sponsor approval yet.
This is so disappointed! like they never know which year come first, 2019 or 2020...

I feel as the letter says they have not paused the processing. They have sent this intimation as IRCC might cross 20-24 months time in processing PGP applications. Let's wait and watch for couple of weeks to see any process activities on this forum. I may request from all members to post if they receive any updates from IRCC. But one thing is for sure who received this email that their application is in que.We know no body can do anything except wait.
Have patience & all the best for everyone

Some people are still getting passport requests and some are waiting although if they have applied in the same year.. I have applied in 2018 and IRCC started processing the application in Jan 2019 but still showing "in progress" and yesterday received a lame email from IRCC.
What are the criteria for processing the applications here?

Have they asked for any financial documents like Notice of assessment after you applied for reassessment!
