Hi everyone, I had my hearing on September 26, 2025, and thankfully got a positive decision. How long does IRB usually take to send the NOD to my consultant, considering that Tuesday, September 30, 2025, is National Day for Truth and Reconciliation in Canada? Since the Minister wasn’t at the hearing and made no comments on my claim, should I worry about the 15-day appeal, or can I relax and move ahead with applying for PR and a travel document? Thank you

Congratulations. Would expect it to take from a few weeks up to a few months depending on the member and whether they are up-to-date on their admin work.

If You got the decission same day of hearing, so the paper Notice could take 2,3 weeks.

Its different when they don't give decission and say You Will receive by mail. But looks like it's not your case.

Good luck!

Yes, I got it the same day. I also have a consultant. I read on the IRB website that they no longer send the NOD by mail to consultants, only through the portal. That’s a good thing, especially with the Canada Post strike. Do you think it will take less than 2 weeks to receive the NOD?
