    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    There are doctors on WPs so the argument isn’t true. There are some jobs that do require PR or citizenship. Not being able to afford to Disneyland, like many Canadians, is not a reason why Canada should change their immigration targets. With an RTD you can apply for a US visa so there will be...

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    You always had the option to apply for an economic immigration stream. In all countries asylum seekers are a small percentage of pathways to PR not the majority. Blame the Trudeau government if you want to blame anyone. They essentially stopped vetting most temporary applications and encouraged...

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    There is no specific timeline to make the hajj. You could have technically done it before coming to Canada and you can also do it after getting Canadian citizenship. Not sure why Canada is to blame for KSA putting visa limits on who can go to Mecca.

    Based on backlogs and targets they are a lot more realistic than previous posted processing times.

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

    That is also all forms of H&C not only the general one. General H&C appears to have been allocated less than 1/5th of the total H&C target based on previous data released. Nobody can guess what IRCC will do to try to address the mess they watched happening yet did nothing to try to address the...

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    Can see family reunification as the only big issue. Asking for a pathway to secure temporary permits for a spouse and dependent children is likely the only reasonable demand to be made. At what point in the process is tough to say. This request would be more palatable to the government and the...

    Federal economic path way EMPP

    They appear to be grouped together and backlogged applications could date from the creation of the programs.

    Privately Sponsored Refugee from Turkey

    Combination of accepting too many applicants and Canada trying to correct an insane amount of immigration over the past 5+ years. IRCC created a mess. Hopefully they will pause applications to clear the backlog versus just adding to it.

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

    If bill c2 passes it can affect all current applicants. The current system is not functional as it is even if H&C stopped accepting new applicants.

    Urgent: Sudden Increase in PR Processing Times for Refugees and Protected Persons (Up to 99 Months!)

    I will be the contrarion but the main goal of asylum/protected people and refugee is safety not fast processing to get citizenship. The fundamental issue is where do you find the extra PR quota? You can call for the freeze of private and government sponsored refugees (which have their own...

    Federal economic path way EMPP

    See my previous attached website for complete information and better formatting. 12% of existing backlog to be processed this year. Not convinced they will even approve 300 given Q1 and Q2. Federal economic pilots Canada’s federal economic pilots include the Agrifood Pilot (now closed)...

    Federal economic path way EMPP

    Based on the backlog processing will likely take many years.

    2025 PR Application Timeline

    IRCC has posted more realistic processing times that are more in line with what I have been saying. https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/application/check-processing-times.html

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

    Agree nobody can count on processing times but they should give a more realistic picture of processing times. People looking to apply or who have applied in 2024/25 may want to consider other more realistic options.

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

    If you got AIP in a similar timeline to others shouldn’t make a huge difference since the yearly PR quota remains the biggest issue that determines processing time. We don’t know what the backlog is like for those who were granted AIP. We also don’t know if the target for 2025 has already been...

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

    That actually may be somewhat correct. What a mess! The PR allocation for general H&C is very small.

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

    So you got AIP quite quickly. That may be somewhat skewing the data you’re getting. This is AI generated data not 100% correct data. That said who knows what is going on with H&C these days.
