    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    If not part of the table not really part of the levels plan. This was a sneaky way to say you reduced PR targets but ant the same time adding a few one times programs. The 115k should have been included in the 2026 and 2027 targets for PR for protected people. The issue becomes that dependents...

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    The issue is that this doesn’t account for dependents. Those who are already in Canada won’t change pressure on housing/schooling/healthcare, won’t lead to additional spending, etc. but once you add the dependents of around 250k protected people over 2 years it has a significant impact.

    Quitting on maintained status

    Partially depends on whether your employer has an approved LMIA and you qualify for a CWP. Is the LMIA and WP for your current employer? When does your WP expire? Were you on a CWP?

    PR card delivery tracking number

    Still could be a canadpost strike issue. Nothing you can really do at this point but wait.

    Quebec pausing new family sponsorship application until June 2026

    Where do you live and work in Quebec? Can you actually permanently relocate to another province and cut ties with Quebec?

    Privately Sponsored Refugee from Turkey

    The backlogs are already incredibly long. IRCC really needs to pause new applications for multiple years to try to clear some of the backlog. Having people apply with processing of around 5+ yrs is not a functional system.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    The writing has been on the wall for quite some time. Hope the government is at least honest after bill c-12 or amended version passes. Not ripping off the bandaid and making some very tough choices has only lead to more problems and dysfunction in the whole immigration system. We need a more...

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Yes but this is clearly performative from a MP in the government currently in power. This MP could have had direct feedback about their concern to caucus, immigration minister, PM, etc.

    Question regarding Procedural Fairness letter

    How much you earn and your savings amount is what counts not whether you are PT or FT.

    CEC application- T4 income higher than months of claimed employment.

    You need a lawyer’s advice at this point because not listing your complete work history could be a problem.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    Which is why I think the most likely option and what has been used in the past is to cull the program and start from scratch with much more defined criteria. Not a perfect solution but none exists. The fact that we may soon have a liberal majority may move things along faster.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    This is extremely odd from a Liberal MP. Do they realize that the Liberals are in power? That they have been trying to pass bill C-2 and now c-12? Agree that many parts of Canada’s immigration need clarity but they should know that bill c-12 Iikely what is delaying any announcements about H&C...

    Question regarding maintained status for calculating physical presence

    Applying for PR did not give you status in Canada as a visitor. If through spousal sponsorship an OWP does give you implied status if you had a valid VR when you applied for the OWP. You were likely out of status for quite some time but in those days there was minimal vetting of applications.

    H&C Humanitarian Ground with/or Without Failed refugee claim

    The current system is not functional and it appears as though IRCC is trying to make people want to leave because of long processing or try to deport them while waiting. We’ll see what happens after bill c-12 or amended bill. Many will no longer have strong H&C case as time goes on while...
