i am not a person who envy others, but i hate to state the fact that indians get priority over Pakistanis in immigration process at least for Canada, i was just browsing some other threads , and i was amazed to see their 95% applications got approved with copr in hand in maximum 1 year mark , good for them but i mean really? i saw someone from april 2020, have their decision made and copr, so much for equality, so much for covid, the racism, the favouritism. I wish my wife moved in here with me, and i didnt have to go through this crap where clearly there is so much discrimination.

I wouldn't necessarily agree with that. Where did you get the 95% number here? I am looking at the tracker + NDVO thread, they still have cases pending from 2019. The number of applicants is so many from India that you are bound to find some cases reaching the finish line sooner. ( these are mainly cases that were transferred to Ottawa not NDVO because of the number of applications ). If you feel they go by country or prioritize a country, I would love to know where you get that information from ( so I can be better informed ) and not just one-off cases because I also know August 2019 Indian applicants waiting.

How about Sponsor Aproval(SA) ?
Wait for PA(principal applicant ) approval
Include Medical request , Eligibility check , background check -> May ask Police report again
After PA approval wait for passport request
With photos
Insha Allah

Hi, I am feb 2020 applicant
it has been 20 days i am waiting like crazy, counting days, it’s so difficult For me now. 20 days since many others feb applicants got AOR2 from LVO But I and some others didn’t, it’s so frustrating. Please if some one has any information why they selected only some Of us, even some March applicants got it. Please share it. I have been only thinking about what possible reason could be for That. i have sent a web form but no reply. Is there any way to get information from them, any way to know the answers. Please share with me. Also all feb 2020 applicant who didn’t get aor2 like this so we know how many of us are there. They are literally killing us slowly

thanks but no need for the large font

It’s okay, it’s good information and he bolded the main points. Just thank and move on. No need to worry about the size of font...

I'm not commenting on this aspect BUT for those who want to remove formatting, large fonts, strange colours, etc., when pasting text:

-the upper left of the edit box for posting from a browser has a symbol (sort of like a rubber eraser, just to left of the B for bold) that removes all formatting. Select the text and click the button and viola! normal text.

It does make reading text a little less disquieting when in a normal size and formatted font.
