Less Complex File Review (No Hearing) – Timeline & Decision Waiting

[Morale]

Hi guys quick one pls I submitted my case since Dec 2023 and my background check as being completed since last year March 2025,but am yet to get a hearing date from irb and anytime i called to know what is going on with my file its only answering machine picking up telling me to leave a message.and I spoke to my lawyer about it her response is I just have to wait pls anybody with a similar situation?

My situation is worse, I applied in January 2023, background check completed in July 2023, didn’t hear anything from them until last month April 2026 when they sent me a less complex letter. I was told the wait time after receiving the letter was 6-12 months and now turns out they’re pausing the file review process. Looks like it might take me 5 years before I get a hearing, and hopefully get my PR by 2032
