Do we know anyone here applied before june 2023 and outside of Quebec? It seems like it stuck at June 2023.
The quota for general H&C is so small it would be hard to determine if there was an actual pause. Many appoints aren’t part of an online H&C applicant group. There is a significant backlog of cases who have received AIP and are waiting for PR. It looks like it may take years for the backlog of AIP holders to get PR so there is also likely a reluctance to keep issuing AIPs until some of the AIP holders get PR. The program is such a disaster and needs to be reformed. IRCC is going to get sued whether they attempt to reform the program or do nothing so attempting to make the program functional seems like the better option.
