Want to make sure I don't miss it...if it goes into spam or something...

Wife received my in-laws yesterday, starts with 05C and ending with 20.
Do we have a status tracker on this year's PGP?

Both myself and my spouse applied for our parents respectively in 2020 and 2021 but both did not get selected each time. My wife got the invitation for my in-laws yesterday around 12:18PM for her 2020 application, starting with 82***. I am hoping I get mine soon to, starts with BC***.

Does anyone know the processing times for these applications?

Congrats it appears the processing time these days is around a year. Check out the other threads where people have been tracking their progress. The 2022 cases might be most relevant as the capture the post-Covid processing timelines most accurately.

I don't know why they send invitations over two weeks...If its a lottery they should have results for all applications that got picked on the same day...maybe there is a valid reason that I am unaware of.....this anxiety is killing me and I am wasting a lot of time just thinking about this and we are only on day 2....anyways congratulations to all who got the ITA already and good luck to people still waiting....

Hi everyone, I am also anxiously hoping to have my parent's name this year. I am looking into people sharing their confirmation number, is it safe to assume that CIC sends out the invites based on a system? First those that starts with numbers and then probably letters in order? Anyone has done any digging in previous years? Mine starts with DEF.....

PS/ I think everyone is ending with 20 as it is 2020 year applicants.. correct me if I am wrong...
