That is right.Agree nobody can count on processing times but they should give a more realistic picture of processing times. People looking to apply or who have applied in 2024/25 may want to consider other more realistic options.

They should also consider the ones applied before the reforms to the system.That is right.
The system change affects only new applicants, they must establish a clear and specific cut-off date and define the criteria that distinguish a "new" applicant from an "existing" one.

Bill C2 is stuck at second reading and now the government introduced bill C12 which is modified bill C2 (removing almost half of the bill C2) with the hope it will quickly pass. I agree current H and C program is not functional and IRCC should wipe out entire backlog and start from the scratch with very stringent criteria. I believe they should limit eligibility to only foregin nationals from ADR/TDR countries who have children with special needs/medical conditions, and failed refugee claimants from those countries. Also they should add clear provision that parent/grandparent/siblings/aunt cases are not eligible for H and C.If bill c2 passes it can affect all current applicants. The current system is not functional as it is even if H&C stopped accepting new applicants.

Having a Canadian-born child does not prevent the removal of a foreign national. However, the CBSA always considers the best interest of the child before removing someone. If parents of Canadian children must be removed from Canada and choose to take their children back to their country of nationality, the CBSA will facilitate the travel of the children in order to keep the family together.

Processing times may increase
The Immigration Levels Plan sets the number of newcomers that Canada plans to welcome each year. If there are more people applying than available spaces, processing times may increase.
People ahead of you:
About 6,700 people ahead of you
Total number of people waiting for a decision:
About 49,400 people waiting
People applying now should be processed in:
More than 10 years
Having a Canadian child never prevented removal. It did favour H&C in the past but that seems to be somewhat changing. The government doesn’t want to reward the idea of having an anchor child. CBSA does try to coordinate with the family so any dependents with status can accompany their parents.
why you did not reply to previous post on the forum ?New account of troll. Sent a trashy message as usual over DM. Imagine being a H&C applicant and harassing everyone based on skin color, nationality, etc.
the only thing you can do only rant and barking such a dog all the nightHe's our old troll.
