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

    Agree but with the overall H&C quota decreasing every year there will still be a substantial backlog between AIP and PR. We are also seeing the courts and groups push back on the long processing times so the government may have no other option but to reform programs. Think everyone can agree...

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

    Highly doubt IRCC is trying to get to the maximum range because they will already have to explain how they approved ~450k PRs and not 385k because they didn’t count their 1 time policy. Voters have been very clear that they want to keep new PRs at a reasonable level and reduce the amount of...

    Would visiting the Indian consulate for a Power of Attorney hurt an asylum claim in Canada?

    Is this an urgent situation? Getting asylum from India is incredibly difficult so may not actually be an issue.

    Urgent please advice! IELTS was expired at the time of ITA

    No he can’t take his IELTS now and count the score if he didn’t submit IELTS when you received ITA. If you’re able to retake IELTS in time and you receive a lower score you will have to see if you would still meet ITA cut-off. If you don’t I would not submit an application.

    Parents & Grandparents Program (PGP) 2023

    I was going to say that most 2023 applicants have non-routine applications so it would be impossible to estimate processing time.

    Changing spouse from non-accompanying to accompanying after ITA - spouse IELTS Taken after ita

    It is incredibly dependent on your scores. I would consult a lawyer about your specific situation.

    Waiting for Hearing Decision

    The 2 weeks isn’t a firm deadline but each member has their own administrative patterns. Some never give out results in person, some want to deliberate longer than others, some are more behind on administrative tasks. etc. On top of that these are people so they do get sick, have family...

    Dependant's first PR card Delay

    Every applicant is individually processed so it is perfectly normal for each applicant not to receive a piece of mail on the same day. People need to have a bit of patience before contacting IRCC it had only been 1 day. You will likely receive your PR card next week or the week after.

    Request to submit passport for PR visa processing while in Canada?

    You were required to update the address on your sponsorship application when you came to Canada. You now need to contact IRCC and indicate that you are in Canada. You will then receive a virtual landing but it may take a few months.

    FROM NON ACCOMPANYING TO ACCOMPANYING AFTER ITA

    Think the bigger issue is whether IRCC takes issue with the fact the fact that you listed your spouse as non-accompanying and had not listed your spouse’s IELTS scores when you submitted your application on top of that. Had your spouse been included on your application as accompanying without...

    Lost PR card and beiing asked humanitarian and compassionate considerations for residency requirement

    That is a risky proposition. Though to say how IRCC will treat your PRTD request if your plan is to return on the last day you will remain compliant with your RO. What if your flight is cancelled? Having no buffer time is not a good idea. Even if you return with a PRTD you will still be...

    Overseas spouse and dependents of protected person and convention refugee timeline - Share here

    Days to several weeks is likely the exception these days. Minor dependents without parents in their home countries may still get this faster processing. It is though to anticipate home many dependents will be added due to the much higher volume of protected people getting PR these days.

    Overseas spouse and dependents of protected person and convention refugee timeline - Share here

    There so many changes happening at once and variable that it is hard to estimate what processing will be for dependents. For example if dependents complete the medicals and there is an irregularity on the chest x-ray, it will take a while to get reviewed because it must be done by IRCC medical...
