Yeah.. when I submitted the refugee claim, the estimated processing time for a refugee claim was 23 months, now it is 30+ months. As of end of April 2025, there are over 284 thousand claims pending with IRB, which means that it will take up to 4 years to clear this backlog if 71,000 claims are processed by IRB every year.
Now that the FESS is completed, I think that I will wait for IRB to decide the next course of action.. hopefully they will not take too long. It's already well over 22 months since I submitted the BOC.
