Hi
It would be nice if we can post here some processing times for our PR application.
I've been anxious to receive the status of my application. Receiving information that people are getting approved, would make us more hopeful that we will receive ours as well.
I've received my ITA in Feb 2020, applied in Mar 2020 and did my biometric in Dec 2020.
My initial expectation was to go to Canada in 6 months after the application, but then the pandemic came and destroyed all my plans.
A friend of mine applied in Nov 2019 and she just received the email from CIC saying her PR request was approved. She's finally flying to Canada in November.
I have another good friend that applied for a PR inside Canada in April 2020 (she was previously there with a work permit). Her PR was approved in March 2021 and now (Sep 2021) she finally received her PR.
