It's the moment you receive eCoPR, which happens anywhere between 1 days and 6 weeks after P2. You also have 7 days to reply to P2. And sometimes they send P2 faster (depends on your VO). If you want to be on the safe side then inform them you will be travelling and you return at a given date. It will delay P2 and eCoPR by the period of your travel but at least you will be sure that you will return to Canada.

Thank you for this! I replied the email informing our situation.

My application status has been saying processing since MAY 21, 2024, they requested for additional information which I sent, they confirm receipt by June 20 saying 'We are reviewing the additional documents you provided. " And also " We are processing your background check. We will send you a message if we need more information." Ever since then I have not heard anything, do I need to be worried at this stage? heard background check should not take more than 2 months any one with the same experience and what should I do?

Hello, I have some doubts about the procedure after the CSQ approval.

I already sent the requested documents and took the test of values of Quebec this month. I am waiting for the answer but my open work permit has expired and I am staying in Quebec as a visitor.

If I understood correctly, in about 2 months I should have an answer about my application. If it is accepted, I get the CSQ which I would receive in 2 or 3 more months. And only when I receive the CSQ I could apply for a new work permit, is that right?
Is there a way to apply for a work permit as soon as my application is approved or do I have to wait until I receive the CSQ?
If there is someone who has gone through a similar situation it would help me a lot to know their times because I would like to decide if it is better for me to continue waiting here or if it takes too long and it is better to wait in my country.

Thanks

Getting CSQ does not guarantee a Work Permit. They might invite you for an open work permit if they think you are eligible. The CSQ Open Work Permit is not available for everyone. With CSQ, you will be able to apply for PR. So, I think you should consult an Immigration Lawyer, who can guide you thorough your predicament.

I think processing time for background check depends upon individuals past life. For example, if a person has lot travel history or he/she has worked in multiple countries, moreover also if someone has worked for a military or not. So I think the time taken is depended on your individual case.

It depends. Have you taken both biometrics and medical exam?

I have taken biometrics but not been asked to take any medical exams.

I haven't done any of this, so i am wondering why it's taken this much time? do i need to message them or what? and if yes how do I do that?

After biometrics and submitting additional documents, waiting 2 months to receive a medical request is normal. you may submit a web form if the time surpasses 2 months.

Estimated processing time is 9 months right now, there is no use contacting IRCC before it elapses.
