Waiting times have now been updated as of Feb 12, 2026.

I applied for PR as a Protected Person in August 2023 and now it says that's Estimated Time Left is 4 months!

Same for me, Aug 2023. Last month said 5 months, so now 4 months... Time passes.
Hopefully now it will be only 4 months. I applied 30 months ago and last time I called, officer said "you are still within timeframe", ...because wait 30 months is not much, rigth :/

Processing times mean nothing! Just some random numbers. I’m hopeless af now. They’re not moving the files at all!

Folks, Applications received on 2024 Protected Person’s PR are receiving final decisions already and yet applicants from 2023, specifically March to December aren't s receiving any Final Decision. This process is unfair and ridiculous. When IRCC will finalize the 2023 applications before making decision on 2024. Why this process frustrating. I applied November 2023, it has been 26 months and no final decision yet.

Look in the 2024 thread. Plenty of them have received final decision already and we are here stuck in limbo.
