I don't think you understood my question. I do not contest that during the evaluation of the sponsor stage (happens at CIC-M) every application is treated the same in terms of priority. What I suggest is, after passing the first stage, and moving onto the local visa office stage, applications from Quebec seem fast tracked. The cases I was refering to in question had their first stage completed 3rd quarter last year, and after them getting the CSQ, (which is a must step after stage 1 and before stage 2), and then the visas were issues Jan 2014. There didn't seem to be any waiting time at all. I refer to at least 3 different cases, all Quebec, and I know their visa offices belong to one of those that have wait time in the 50-60 months range.
I cant say for sure, because anything is possible. But I do doubt they fast track QC applicants at 2nd stage. It may be coincidence, must remember that applications discussed in a forum are just a small fraction of total applications being processed by CIC.

Yeah I agree. That's why I wanna find out if this is just an isolated case, or something that's been systematically applied to QC cases.

I was able to find some data that may help. 2014 has not been released yet.
http://data.gc.ca/data/en/dataset?_organization_limit=0&organization=cic

So based on all PGP processed in 2013 (Jan to June) of applications received 2007, 2008, 2009.

Applications (destination Province) Finalized

Quebec 1,351
Ontario 10,229
Alberta 2,084
British Columbia 3,816
Newfoundland and Labrador 16
Prince Edward Island 2
Nova Scotia 64
New Brunswick 21

etc...

The only thing that comes to mind is the CSQ, is there an expiry of it by the QC government? I am not familiar with QC rules at all, so I don't know. If there is an expiry of that portion, than it may be probable that VOs directions are to process files containing CSQ, I really don't know. Or are QC residents asked to get a new CSQ? Logically one would think that the CSQ should be less than 1 year old at time of decision by the VO as the CSQ is covers the financial evaluation.

The numbers you posted are interesting. Does it mean for the months in 2013, only applications made in 2007,2008,2009 were processed? If the hypothesis I proposed were valid, then we should see some cases submitted in more recent years, 2012 for example, for Quebec.

The CSQ is valid for 3 years. So you explanation makes sense to me. I'll ask the people I was refering to for more details on their cases.

My second attempt wasn't successful. As some of you might know already, my app came back because I had a missing form. So the second Application was received by CIC on Jan. 20, 2014 and it came back today. This time the cover letter was very clear what I did wrong. I just can't believe what happened. It says I didn't use the current 1344(11-2013) and 5768(12-2013). In fact, I used the current 5768, but I used 08-2013 version of 1344. I printed the form listing on Dec 31, 2013 which I have it in my hand right now and on that page, it says clearly August 2013. Now I go back to the CIC web page today to double-check, of course, it's November 2013.

I'm not sure when it was changed.... Also, my fault that I didn't check the date again when I resent it. Did anybody submit 1344(08-2013) version? Was it just me? Today is a very sad day for me. :(

the #s are only fractions of all applications processed, there are still a bunch of 2007, 2008, 2009 being processed today, and some of 2007 were processed in 2012.

If the CSQ is valid for 3 years than it would make sense the applications are processed before CSQ expires, unless the VOs are asking the sponsors to re-do CSQ if expired, just like they ask for new medicals, new pcc etc.

I am sorry to hear you were not successful this time around. But on the positive note, once the program re-opens in 2015 you will be more than ready, and realistically I think applications from 2014 and 2015 will be processed very close to each other, with first final decisions late 2017, early 2018 for those that applied in 2014-2015.

CIC has set a goal to process PGP in 3 years once the backlog is eliminated.

As for the form, yes I read another forum member had the application returned because of using the August 2013 form. Not sure if this thread or one of the other PGP threads.

It's just a coincidence, there were many late 2009 apps which were done and dealt with in late 2012 and early 2013

Trust me, some of us old apps have been following this since last 2 years day in day out

Thanks for the positive comments. Yes, I'll be more careful next time, also, it's only 11 months away to re-apply.

It's great to have folks like yourself on this forum.

The link to the PGP timeline in your signature, is that the most recent version ppl are using? The title says 2012.

If your parents aren't here on a visit I would suggest to apply for the supervisa, so when the program re-opens again in 2015 you can have all documents signed and ready to go right away without delay. Yes it's only 11 months to go. It will go by so quickly. :)

If your application not returned yet then it is a good sign. You can call CIC and ask them if they received your application and if it is accepted as completed application.

I did called CIC this morning and the lady(very polite) said that they can not provide me with this information and I should wait for an acknowledge letter.
Again,my app.was received on 21-st and my CC was not charged
