Stuck On “Eligibility Recommended Pass” for 3 Months?

Hey guys,

Here's my rough timeline:
AOR: 4/20/2024
Medical Passed: 7/03/2024
PVO: Ottawa
SVO: Sydney

I have received absolutely 0 update since MEP. Since July, I've been calling weekly and have been told by IRCC that my Eligibility has been “recommended passed” for the past 3 months later! If it’s Recommended Pass, doesn’t that just mean a first officer has already approved my case, and a second officer just needs to open up my case and finalize it? Seems like my case has been set aside and ignored!

The estimated processing time on the website is 5 months. When I called IRCC in July and August, they kept saying that because my application was still within the processing time, please just be patient. Now that it’s been more than 5 months, when I call IRCC, they just keep saying that “it’s just an estimate.” Anyone knows what I can do? The IRCC hotline agent can't even add a note into the system for me?!

I personally know at least a dozen other people with similar AOR to mine, who have already received their physical card! I also know a few people with an AOR as late as late-June who have already received their Portal 1! What's going on with my case?!

Sorry for the rant. I’d appreciate any insights!
