2025 PR Application Timeline (Protected Person)

[redwing88]

Hello, I am 28 Nov 2025 applicant and today I receive the letter from IRCC to submit the requested forms. I have submitted just now. When can I get my AOR after submitting the documents? Anybody experiencing kind of my situation and timeline please!

I would consider your file to be entering an important processing stage now.
However, that IRCC doesn't issue a separate pre-arrival letter and instead moves directly to further background/security processing and eventually the PR confirmation process.
I would estimate August–October 2026 as a reasonable window for pre-arrival, but it could come later or IRCC could proceed without a separate pre-arrival letter. Good Luck.

Thank you so much for your insight. I really appreciate it.

I called IRCC again and they told me that my criminality has passed, but eligibility and security have not started yet. They also confirmed that they don’t need anything else from me at this point.

Do you think I could still receive eligibility/pre-arrival soon? I’ve noticed that many applicants from April and May 2025, and even some from June 2025, have already received eligibility or pre-arrival letters, so I’m wondering if my application might be getting close as well.

Is there anything you would recommend doing at this stage other than calling IRCC and waiting?

Thank you again for your help!

It's not a war country, but I came to the country with a visa.
