Final decision - July 14, 2026:Your application is in progress. We will send you a message once the final decision has been made.

Hi everyone,
I am a November 2023 applicant.

1. How long does it usually take from this update to get the P1 email (Portal 1)?
2. I received medical + police requests for my wife, and medical requests for my kids (all in-land). However, I can't link their applications. What is the best way and exact data combination to successfully link their account?

Thanks!

I believe yours is coming soon. Call them and ask about security and information sharing

I just got off a call with ircc and it says security passed but info sharing still in progress. Do you think a FD could be given soon?

Yes, I think so because security is the most critical stage!!!

Info sharing cleared on June 30, 2026. Does it mean my security is principally cleared ? Can someone please help me understand ?
