Can someone please advise if this was the right time to file my PR under CEC or am I too late?
About when can I expect my file number?
Thanks in advance.
Regardless it is too late or not, it might be wiser to submit your application right away. If the cap has been reached, your application will be returned and refunded. That might be better than hesitating and miss the opportunity for CEC. There are still a lot of unknowns for EE, and that might be a scary ride.
From the rate of the application progressing on their website, I don't think they have reached the cap. But the number might not reflect the correct one, and CIC have the power to adjust the cap as needed to prepare for EE.
