Honorable Minister
We all (temporary residents) thanks for what you are doing for Canadian immigration and hopefully you will continue to do so.
We are working for Canada during this pandemic (COVID-19). But we are shocked when the immigration department has not done anything for us yet.
We are INLAND PNP paper based applicants with Canadian work experience. Many of PNP applicants are already have been working as essential workers and contributing to this society during pandemic. The Concern province has already verified our information. After that taking 21 months processing time is unfair for us. While in CEC (Canadian Experience Class) the PR process is being completed in 3 to 4 months. Like CEC, we are constantly working for CANADA.
We would like to tell you that our PR process is very slow. The first PNP nomination takes approximately 4 to 5 months after that paper based PR file processing time now takes 21 months. The worst part in PNP paper based INLAND applicants is that we are in the dark and do not know what is happening with our application because we need to wait more than 7 months to get AOR (Acknowledgement of Receipt).
There is a big risk that we lose jobs or reduction of working hours during COVID. If we lose the job then there is a possibility to lose the PNP nomination. If we lose our jobs then we have to start the whole process from the beginning.
Kindly request to give similar priority to paper based PNP application (INLAND) as CEC (Canadian experience class). Technically, both CEC and PNP paper based INLAND applicants in similar backgrounds and we highly request to you to treat us equally this COVID time. So we all request you to speed up our process.
With Regards
