Hi,

Good day to you all!
I submitted my electronic application for PR after being invited to apply. My question is this. Does it always take 6 months for processing? Are there people who have received approval or rejection before the 6 month target? For example, do some people get a decision in 3-4-5 months?

Thanks.
 
Yes,but some people wait over a year. CIC states they TRY to process an app within 6 months. This is not a guarantee.

To sum up, express entry is like buy a lottery where the price will be another lottery. There is no guarantee or anything similar. Some people will be transferred right away to local visa office after submission where as some will go to CIO and stuck there for 3-4 months before go to local visa office. At local visa office, some will get PR approval in 3 weeks some will be 9 months depend on the officer kindness. The whole process is random and the call center agent is useless. Just get it done and forget about it, what come will come. By that time, if you already move on to some other plan then just forget about Canada.
