I understand that the decisions are circumstantial. However, what I was trying to point out is that once you go through one bad experience it stays with you. My PR took 10 months, and I was in the top 1% with my overall score. My PR experience was beyond stressful to say the least, my application got stalled without any fault of my own. When it was finally time to do the landing, Trump administration had just started and I was advised not to drive to the border because of my nationality and occupation. So I don't appreciate your false accusations on not having tried everything. When you're writing comments please be mindful that people might be going through obstacles that may not be applying to you. Also, be mindful that IRCC is known to ask for things beyond everyone's expectations, so this is not a game of being on top of things.
I think you have a serious case of reading misinterpretation here. I never judged you or anything like that. I just said what I did and worked for me; I reiterate what I said before. You know how it's the old say: " Expect for the best but prepare for the worst".
Just some notes: 1) you don't need to actually enter in the USA to make the landing in Canada. You just are in the "limbo" between the two countries and 2) the processing time has nothing to do with your overall score, you made the cut you are in and if you didn't you are out. After that moment, it's up to us to submit the papers promptly and wish for the luck to have a really good case manager and lastly 3)You don't know my experience with IRCC. Personally I don't believe IRCC is unfair or ask for things beyond's expectations. I've processed many different types of visas before with them and never had an issue of some "beyond expectation request". By the way, who is falsely accusing me of doing allegations is you and just quoting you:
"please be mindful that people might be going through obstacles that may not be applying to you".
Honestly, I think even talking about this is absurd, we have only one common objective here, which is obtain our citizenship. In this forum, we share our experiences with the hope of helping the other during their process. I've been an immigrant in Canada and other countries before, for more than 17 years, If I need to share something to any immigrant in the world (not just Canada) that will be: "Your life as an immigrant will be significantly harder (doesn't matter where you came from and doesn't matter where your are living). Always expect for things to get complicated and also always expect to be demanded for more. It's not for me to judge if that is fair or not, if life it's fair or not. It's just that, LIFE. For me there are only two options: 1: Suck it up and keep going or 2: Accept defeat and go back to our countries. I keep trying, so it's very clear what my option is".
