No, but I did make a joke about that though. There was someone getting DM after 5 months about at the same time as my wife got her DM after 19 months, so I said this is exactly how CIC is getting an average of 12 months!
However, for all those whose application takes longer, I know the feeling. But the fact is that CIC is mainly processing in a first in first out manner. However for some people it takes longer to get their security checks, so that's when you "get out of the line" and wait for this to be over. During that time, people that applied after you but that their security checks are done will (and should) land before you. It's no fun to hear, I know. In any cases, you should not worry about the process. If CIC is not satisfied with the proofs you submitted, they will give you the opportunity to address their concerns. Sooner or later, you will get your PR, so please, just enjoy your everyday life. That's much more important than the whole PR process.
