Ignore the eligibility letter date. Count 29 months from the date you submitted your application. However, the 29-month timeline may vary by ±3 months.

So expect longer processing time than those who applied out of Quebec.

Hi everyone,
I haven’t seen many updates from February applicants lately. Did IRCC stop processing February files, or are there just very few February applicants here?
So far, I’ve only noticed two February applicants who received their final decisions.
If you're a February applicant, please share your timeline.
We are March applicants and are still waiting. Hopefully, our turn is coming soon!

Im February applicant, nothing received so far after eligibility and pre-arrival
