2023 PR Applications Timeline (Protected Persons & Refugees)

[moref1988]

In my experience, there is no fixed timeline between a background check changing from "Not Applicable" to "We are processing" and receiving the Final Decision (FD). Even if an application is tagged as non-complex, the remaining security, criminality and other background verifications can take different amounts of time. One important thing to remember is that a change in the background check status does not necessarily mean that the final decision is just around the corner.
I would suggest checking your GCMS notes to see whether eligibility, criminality and security have been completed or are still in progress.
Hopefully, your application is approaching the final stage. Good luck, and please keep us updated!

These answers are helpful, and I value your information, but they're not very relevant right now. There are people who receive their P1 email one day after receiving their pre-arrival letter. So we see that PR can be granted very quickly when needed. I received my eligibility and pre-arrival letters in March 2025. Therefore, IRCC should stop making excuses and do its job, approving my PR file. It's clear they can finalize the file very quickly when they want to.

Congratulations on receiving P1 as the principal applicant, even though you have overseas dependants included in your PR application!

1. Have they completed their medical examinations, biometrics and background checks?
2. Has IRCC overseas visa office requested their passports for visa issuance, or are they still waiting for further instructions?

They’ve booked the appointment for next week.
We’re done with biometric,eligibility and pre arrival letter email
As far as security is concerned,I don’t know if it’s completed or not.
