Hi guys, I am applying for WP under the SUV program(I submitted a PR application four months ago). I realized that the processing time for WP(outside of Canada) varies for different countries. Do you know if the processing time shown on the IRCC website is accurate? (I got confused because the processing time for many of my friends who got closed/open work permits are ALL different, from 1.5 months to 9 months)
Yes, it is fairly accurate and it is different for different countries outside Canada. The processing generally happens by or before the timeline mentioned.

I got AOR on November 9 and my application was received in July 2020.
Congrats! Great news :) How about your teammates. Did they get AOR and ADR at a simlar dates as you did?

The newest update shows the processing time is 33 months now.
I thought IRCC was trying to clear up the backlogs. How come the processing time is even longer now?
