Thanks for sharing your news
@ossri
It personally gave me hope at a very difficult time!
Luckily, I learnt this week that my claim was approved without a hearing. Here's my timeline:
BOC: late Feb 2024
IRB referral and selection for file review: early April 2024
Evidence submitted: early May 2024
Security Screening: I know my GCMS notes that all stages were in progress by Dec 2025.
Approval: Feb 2026
To all of you waiting, trying to gain stability after what you witnessed in your home countires while also enduring prolonged family separation, please stay strong and keep taking care of yourselves. Thanks will hopefully get better soon!
