H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

[Dietmar_baumwolle]

Sorry, I don’t think that’s how it works. The processing time shown at the time you apply is what generally applies to your application. Since processing times keep changing, the new timelines don’t usually affect applications that were already submitted.

If the current processing time is 23 months, then you have to go by 23 months from the day that you submitted your application. Seeing as how most of these cases just seem to be international students from sham colleges with not enough points, their applications are the lowest priority and will likely take 23 months to process.

No, I'm still waiting, and what is stressing me the most right now is my kids. I'm very worried about how to pay their tuition fees. My eldest is studying law at university, and the second one is studying cybersecurity at college

I've been waiting since November 2022, and this is my second application. The first one was refused in August 2022 after 15 months.

Will they have to pay international student tuition fees?

Guys, I know H&C applications are lengthy, but what is the good, or average amount of words you can say that is considered detailed enough? I know it's very weird question and it all depends on the context buy anyway.

In my specific case, I got around 5600+ words in my entire application (not including info in IMM5283)

I had to answer 7,8,11,12,03 questions from IMM5283, and to each of these questions (except 12), I attached pdf document with detailed explanation. And my application had in total around 5600+ words. After submitting I think it is very short and kinda scared. Can anyone, or even someone who got AIP share how long their application was?

Hello Everyone.
Please I am new to this forum and I would like to ask about timelines for H&C approval stage 2 . Did anyone get stage 2 approval recently? Please how long do you think before I get stage 2 approval? It took 18months to get AIP. I want to apply for work permit extension but I am trying to wait till September, 2025. Maybe I might get lucky and get approved before my PGWP expires in October, 2025
I am currently on a PGWP that will expire in October 2025. I applied for H&C as the principal applicant with my 2 minor dependent.
My timeline is below
Application submitted- November 24,2023
AOR - November 24, 2023
Biometrics-December 14, 2023
All Supporting documents was submitted with application.
AIP- May 8, 2025
Request for Medical - Pending

Based on others who have received AIP it could realistically take close to a year to land so you should apply for OWP and apply for study permits from your non-Canadian dependents if they are over 4 years old if not apply for visitor records.

Honestly, not a big deal. Stage 1 approvals give a work permit.

It is a big deal because IRCC will not want to accumulate a large backlog of AIPs so will likely give out AIPs slowly. Also AIPs aren’t guaranteed PRs so if there are reforms technically could be reevaluated. Until you have PR you still have temporary status.

Hello @WellWell2021 and rest of the members of this this forum... I greet you all.

Sorry I have not been active on this forum for years due to work. Time is extremely tight for me. Hence the reason you rarely see me here.

But first, allow me to introduce myself as I can see there are lot of new members in this forum. Some of the old members would recognize me tho.

I was once in most of y'all situation years. I came as student. Did not renew my visa. Remain in Canada for about 7yrs without status. Continued with my university education till I graduated. That's when I put in a H and C application and it got approved. Keep in mind I did it myself. Some of the old members like @WellWell2021 can attest to my claim and testimony.

Also, I have jkm like to give a shout to all the old members in this forum ( can't remember most of their names). This guys are immigration wizards. Even an immigration lawyer is NOTHING compare to this guys..

During my time, I have learnt a lot about h and c and can proudly say I am also a wizard in it.

Keep in mind before I join this forum, I use a lawyer and my application for refused. I almost tried and second lawyer. That lawyer almost scammed me of my money. I have wasted thousands using different lawyers. It got to the point I developed the confidence to do the application myself which for approved within 8month.

I have been a PR going to 3 years now. At the end of this year's, I will be applying for my Canadian citizenship to be a citizen.

I have also help some of the old members in this forum who today are now a PR. Shout out to @tony ( I hope I got his name correctly ). There are so many of them who I can't remember their names. All the advice I gave worked like magic....@WellWell2021 can also attest to this claim since he is an old member in this forum and was present during my time.

I decided to write this post because I notice @WellWell2021 recognized my presence in the forum today. I don't know how...but am glad he did. It been over years now. My greetings to you sir. Hope you have for your PR ?

Mostly importantly , the second reason for my write is because after reading the ordeal of so many of y'all new members in this forum, it is evident to me a lot of guys are NOT doing h&c the correctly . Also, it is evident to me that so many new members do NOT know the purpose of hand c application. They just use because it is available to them.

The core part that really for my attention the most when I read a lot of y'all comments is that a lot of you guys do not know how to approach a NEW h and c application after a previous refusal. I see lot of wrong advice on this forum which I know is a hit or miss or more guaranteed to get a new refusal.

When I see some people give wrong advice, it really saddens me because you are playing with the future of someone who is venerable.

Am free all day today. Pls, feel free to ask my any questions about h and c. I will do my best to respond .

Hope to hear from y'all..


Glad to see myself in this forum after about 5 yr
