Im February 26, 2023. No final decision yet. Some January and February applicants haven’t received decisions yet.
The processing time is 29 months and Im over 30 months already. Its approximate time they took to finalize previous decisions in last 6 months.
Maybe we should add additional 6 months to the processing time. This year they have 100,000 more permanent residencies to give by the end of the year and they already gave almost 300,000 till now. This is the reason the process is slowed down for everyone. Probably we will notice a spike in processing times as well. Im not discouraging anyone but trying to figure out what’s going on. Its unfair they dont go queue wisely. All the applications are all over the place and hard to understand the whole process. I have been reading people getting approved from the same month I applied since last 4 months, But im still at the same spot. I called IRCC and they sent a message to my officer a month ago. And in reply I received that my application is in queue and the officer acknowledged that I am past my processing time. It wasn’t much of a help. We are only 4 months away from next year and there will be new quotas. Good luck.

Go to MP or if u went then no option rather waiting
 
Do you think contacting an MP will expedite the process? I haven’t contacted them yet. I am wondering whether we should reach out by email or visit their office. To be honest, I feel hesitant to contact them because I am just a refugee.

Bro it’s really helpful my mp is trying to contact them every month update since this July.

Atleast they won’t forget u, there is conservative issues going on about immigration so they balancing it it will bounce again. Thats y they paused.

And its depend on ur MP too some are not helpful some really are.

Try it!

Thanks a lot, I will. Did you arrange the meeting via email? My concern is that I live in Ottawa, and my MP probably has more important matters than contacting IRCC for a refugee case. By the way, I am a March 10 applicant and I am not sure if my background check has been completed. I requested ATIP notes on June 20th but haven’t received them yet. I also sent them three emails and haven’t gotten a response.

Just email them find ur MP online by ur postal code, they will do everything by email send u one form consent one, first write very strong email saying ur delays effecting ur life or job something, and I guess u will get prompt help as ur MP is in Ottawa.

Hope it works for u and we march applicants get good news this month.
