    The mass approval I mentioned in different topics was something like this.

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

    When you get ecoPR, your social insurance number changes from 9s to 1s, 3s, and 5s. A friend of mine was recently given a social insurance number that starts with 1. After these extensions, it would be more fair to grant convention refugees a permanent social insurance number and an indefinite...

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

    This is a good question. There's the problem of constantly renewing your work permit and not being able to change your Social Security number. Because you can't change your Social insurance number like a PR person, you can't access certain banking services, and for example, it makes it more...

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

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

    When I say mass approval, I don't mean TRV or anything else. However, the backlog in the protected person category, which already has been in Canada for years and has an approval rate of around 95%, can certainly be addressed. What's the point of making people wait longer in this category, which...

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

    Some friends are looking at this issue from a very unfair perspective and are probably revealing their conservative political views. The issue is not about returning to the country of origin, a real refugee would not have such a concern anyway. The issue here is one of predictability. The...
