Hi everyone from Mexico. I have applied for IMP international trade agreement march 20, no need to give biometrics. Its been 2 months now and I havent heard any update from ircc. It still appears "checking your background" from day 1.

Does anyone knows the estimated process time for it? I thought I was elegible for 2 week processing but it is clearly not

Thanks in advance.

We are seeing the process take 4 months or more in some cases. Some people get lucky and manage to get an approval in a few weeks. Unfortunately it's a bit of a dice roll and the two weeks is not guaranteed. So had to predict how long you may be waiting.

Hi, thankyou for your response. Are talking about general programs or IMP specific?

International Mobility. Processing times are all over the place right now and we are unfortunately seeing lots of longer wait times.
