Hello, according to the CIC website, the processing times in the UK is 7 months. I was just wondering if anyone has had experience of this as being realistic? Has anyone had their PR approved sooner? Just curious, I'm sure its going to take what its going to take. I've just mailed my application today's, finger's crossed!

Take a look at my spreadsheet (the link is below my posts). These are all real cases going through the London office and it shows the average processing time from start to finish is about 4-5 months.
Good luck!

Thank you for your help pinklady! Is there a long wait in Mississauga to be approved for a Sponsor? I herd around 55 days? Is this accurate? I watch the spreadsheet for updates!!

Paa Ji! You do not have a very long wait in Mississauga. They are bit reasonable. The wait is afterwards.

Currently the wait time for sponsor approval is 55 days, but I was including this time in the 4-5 month estimate.
The wait times are updated each week, usually on Wednesday afternoons.
