OCTOBER 2025 AOR
- Thread starter Whofears
- Start date
Received P2 today (on a Saturday). That's lovely.
They thought I used an Immigration Consultant with the way my application was packaged, and I didnt declare it. They want me to explain why..... I told them I did all my applications myself, but did an extensive research using various publicly available guides....
Starting to see December AORs getting FD while mine is probably not even having reached anyone’s desk yet... Eligibility still not started after ~140 days. Should not have paid the RPRF from the start, so unfair and inefficient way of working from IRCC end
And mine is not even the worst case, there are even Aug and Sept AOR with no updates since their medical

That adds more wait time to your application. Paying RPRF upfront is better.
>Starting to see December AORs getting FD while mine is probably not even having reached anyone’s desk yet... Eligibility still not started after ~140 days.
SLA is 80% applications in 6 months of time. Rest are going to be non-routine, yours could be one too.
>And mine is not even the worst case, there are even Aug and Sept AOR with no updates since their medical
You've to take all of this data as very anecdotal. IRCC has been processing people faster than what most would expect. They've not done a bad job of it.
Please make sense to me why on earth an application can go completely untouched and not even be assigned to an officer for nearly 5 months. What kind of "fast" processing system allows that to happen?
Of course, there are actually folks with 6-7 months too and it's just a nightmare to imagine being in that place. It's not even reached the c-check, ADR or anything, just pure incompetent workload distribution/backlog management.
Again, if you are marked non-routine and aren't going to be 80% SLA - your application can be untouched for >1 year too. There's no need for that to happen and the expectation for that to happen knowing SLA isn't right.
>just pure incompetent workload distribution/backlog management.
I disagree. Maybe, I've way more patience there than most, but I think processing 80% of applications for a "PR pathway" in such a short time, at that volume is quite good. They are overspending on immigrants fwiw. They were literally 65% overstaffed to provide faster processing and even with layoffs, IRCC is doing quite well.
Try order GCMS or contact your MP? Or do something distracting yourself… I am sorry for what’s happened to you, and honestly this is a game of luck at this point. Someone get their p1 when they submitted their documents in December, but someone applied in 2024 is undergoing comprehensive security checks
Non-routine based on what? For me being young, single, and grinding on a stable job since graduation?
Or for having a minimal to zero travel history with just a study period of a little over 6 months in a 5-eye country, all to avoid having a headache filling out the travel history later?
Even my GCMS note shows info-sharing has "Ready to Review" for more than 4 months now, and posts about having this status are countable on this whole forum. How did it end up sitting untouched on some officer's desk this whole time?
Non-routine because I submitted everything almost immediately after ITA since I prepared in advance?
While there are people with decent CRS who submitted at the very last day to obtain their missing docs such as PCC, got their FD already.
While some guys journaling their travel diaries of 40+ countries on Instagram got everything completed under 2 days at max since eligibility and security screening started?
And do not let me bring up the whole PGWP horrendous delay since last year
It just feels incredibly unfair that a straightforward - for whatever system they are banking on
Honestly, I never wanted to go this far with the current rant, and I truly hope no one will receive this treatment as I'm going through.
Thank you for your response - I'm outland so MP is never an option for me
For GCMS - I'm about to order the 2nd one, or I'd rather say: a duplicate with just a different generated date.
And how can I have the c-check when my security screening has not even started? At least for the c-check, things will be crystal clear for me so that I won't have to check my tracker hourly.
Contacting MP won't help, they've no control or jurisdiction over your application and can't speed your application up.
Again, your are complaining like the many others that I've seen over the years and these rants make no difference here.
Truth is, your application is different, your officer is different, your VO is different. If you are marked non-routine (end up going beyond SLA), what the comparison will even do? That too, extremely anecdotal comparison.
>And do not let me bring up the whole PGWP horrendous delay since last yea
What does that has to do with PR? IRCC has been objectively doing better(read the parliament briefing when it comes EE), at a time when landing more immigrants isn't a better choice, they are still landing outland and in-land applicants. If you want to go by logic here, most of these applications should be deferred for a year or two till the infrastructure and job market catches up - but, when I take you there, like the many million whiners I've seen before, you'll deflect elsewhere.
> Honestly, I never wanted to go this far with the current rant, and I truly hope no one will receive this treatment as I'm going through.
You need to sit tight and think through this. 5 months isn't unreasonable amount of wait or "treatment" that looks bad. There are literal judges reviewing Mandamus that decide that. Hyperboles are the mark of an ignorant.
