I have seen people waiting for 16-18 months for COPR under PN. Not sure if I am understanding the time-frame correctly.
On CIC Processing Time website:
when I choose " Economic Class" > Provincial Nominees > Yes, Applying online via Express Entry
The result is: 6 months
Quoted from CIC Processing Time Page (Updated May 13, 2018):
" These processing times only apply to the federal part of the processing (at the visa office) once we have received the complete application. It does not include the time it takes for the province or territory to process the nomination certificate. "

Can anybody please clarify?
Also as a side question, how does ONIP select candidates? Skeptical about their approach of selection (some people have low scores but still got selected). Happy to all those who has been selected, but can they shed-light on their own experience?
Thanks!
