I believe most of us visit official website of CIC quite reularly. One of their feature is processing times. CIC updates these quarterly. But now I have noticed that these have not been updated since dec. Can anybody please comment?
Thanks
Cool

Its not only the processing times, but other items as well for example only two editions of monitor were released last year and none appeared this year as yet, "Just the Facts" also like the same, Statistics are mostly irrelevant and updated till 2004.

Till 2006 they were updating processing times on quarterly basis regularly, we should consider these times authentic as being published by on official authority, and there is no other source available.

Being a daily visitor to this site, I can say they only focus on front page and once or twice a week change the snaps of minister that’s all. However, they have recently put a posting about new website lets hope that proves to be more informative.

Thanks

Thanks Nouna,
Softncool,
Despite of all our optimism, processing Time of CHC Islamabad is sliding upward, all we can do is to hope and pray for the best; because if trend remains the same i.e. 2 months increase in every quarter then one can expect 70 months very soon.
Thanks
MANZAR

Yes Manzar you are right. here is comparison time:

Previously It was:
30% of cases in 57 months
50% of cases in 58 months
70% of cases in 61 months
80% of cases in 63 months
Now It is:
30% of cases in 59 months
50% of cases in 62 months
70% of cases in 63 months
80% of cases in 65 months

Cool

Well you are not the only frustrated on about processing time. We are trying to renew my husband's and my daughter's permanent resident card so that they can come back to Canada after visiting Thailand this summer.

Here's the picture:
Processing Applications Current Processing Time
Received Up To




12 march 2010 04 january 2010 88 jours/days

09 avril 2010 29 janvier 2010 91 jours

16 avril 2010 29 janvier 2010 98 jours

23 avril 2010 29 janvier 2010 109 jours (?)

30 avril 2010 01 février 2010 109 jours

07 mai 2010 01 février 2010 116 jours

13 mai 2010 01 février 2010 123 jours / days



The processsing time is getting longer and longer and now they have been stuck on feb 1st for 3 weeks.

So frustrating! :mad:

Also in the section for ;You require urgent processing of your Permanent Resident Card application

does anyone have any idea what they mean by

If it has been longer than the “received up to” date posted on our website and you have not yet received your card, please send us the following information
