2023 PR Applications Timeline (Protected Persons & Refugees)
- Thread starter jinglebell0123
- Start date
I think it shows us.because it says protected persons and convention refugees in Canada. that is us. refugee claimants are not protected persons. and did you see they only messed up with our timing system not with any other category
Unfortunately, you’re right—my previous comment was incorrect. I don’t understand: the numbers say there are 7,300 cases from 2022, with 1,000 from January 2022 alone. Something seems off. it is funny who apply now have to wait 8 years
But u can’t trust them anymore guys whoever closest do anything u can do to get PR example March April or may.
They says 6 months but it could take more or increase cuz initially now it’s 8.6 years who apply now. So good chance is whoever processes done or almost they might get even before 6 months. Dont take chances contact immigration minister or mp or good lawyer. Every time and money every thing worth spending now to get ur thing done. U see if u wait they can hold u even another 2 years or more.
The thing is, either everyone in this group is lying — because based on the timeline, most February 2022 applicants haven’t received it — or IRCC is not being transparent. How come so many January and February applicants claim they already got it? Most of those people seemed really nice, and I trust them, so something doesn’t add up
No they not lying January and February people got PR couple of them I knew personally in other telegram group and they r here too and got PR card and ecopr. Yes it should process like they did to them but all of sudden this doesn’t work for US.
I should receive update but now this and showing more 6 months, and I can’t trust them too. It could take more and more. Since everything done on my file.
Why the “9,400 people ahead” does not affect your file
1. Many are still in earlier stages
• Of the 9,400 people ahead of March 2023 applicants, a large portion are still stuck in security, eligibility, or medical checks.
• some files is already past all assessments, so those applicants are actually behind you in terms of real progress.
2. Tracker counts everyone, not your personal stage
• IRCC’s queue number is a national average.
• It includes complicated or delayed files that may take longer, so the number looks large even if your file is nearly complete.
3. Finalization queue is separate
• You are already in the finalization stage, which is usually just administrative: final decision, P1/P2, and e‑COPR issuance.
• Being in finalization means your PR is very close, regardless of the total number of applicants ahead.
4. Backlog inflates perceived wait
• The “people ahead” number includes files with issues, missing info, or other delays.
• IRCC processes these on a priority basis; your clean file will be processed faster than the average.
5. Real-life timelines prove it
• March 2023 Protected Person files, like some are completing in ~31 months.
• Many of the “9,400 ahead” are still months away from finalization because stuck in security or info sharing which will take maximum 6 months so its good for people to know that it will happen in 6 months.
Some people position is effectively at the tail end of the queue.like all assessment done file waiting for finalize.
Key Takeaway
• Don’t worry about the 9,400 figure.
• if ur file is already in finalization, and the remaining steps are administrative, not dependent on the other files ahead.
• In practice, you will get your PR well before most of the other applicants counted in that number if all assessment done.
The new IRCC system shows your real position in the queue and reflects current backlog, not just an average. The long wait times it shows for new applicants are AI estimates, so in reality it won’t take that long once older files are cleared. Adding accumulation number every month so AI generated months.
Having the privilege to apply for PR, be eligible for domestic tuition at college/uni and have a health card is not identical to claimants. These are great benefits that we dont get as claimants
17 more months for august applicants? What is this lol
Nope. it is 100% correct. they approve 13000 every year which means 100 months.
