Parents and Grandparents Sponsorship 2019

[IheartCanada]

Just received an email from IRCC with:
Update on IRCC processing capacity for your Family Class – Parents and Grandparents application
Due to the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19), we’re experiencing longer than usual processing delays. Rest assured, we are still actively processing your Family Class – Parents and Grandparents application, but it will take longer than usual to get back to you....

Same as here. Its shameful... I dont know untill when they will use Covid as an excuse... every body can work with the new normal except these guys

My progress bar, been gone for almost 2 years now lol

I dont know which progress bar they are talking about our file stuck stuck stuck even not approve the sponsor yet .... its shameful ....

Received one too. This is just another example of the ministry's incompetence. How can they be starting to process the 2020 applications before completing the 2019 ones.

And the big lie here is "we are still actively processing your Family Class "... but we just wanted to let you know : even when you all are working so hard during the pandemic we are not because we want to use Covid as an excuse ... Juts another BS

Why is Hong Kong getting priority processing?

Because of :
Global News: Hong Kong residents transfer billions to Canada as China clamps down. https://globalnews.ca/news/7720628/hong-kong-canada-money-china/

Is it definite that they have already started on the 2020 applications? If so, this does NOT seem right. Sigh.

seems like all the applicants in 2020 already received their invitation letter. Soon they will submit theirs. This is so ridiculous when CIC start on 2020 applications and we are still being stuck.
At least they have to give us a result before doing anything next, no matter what the result is. I also received this delaying COVID excuse letter and I did not even get my sponsor approval yet.
This is so disappointed! like they never know which year come first, 2019 or 2020...

Parents are waiting with hope and my parents are 80+. Wish I had got the supervisa for them.

They hogged the passports for 2 months?! That's crazy! Is this the New Delhi office? How long do your parents have to enter Canada?

I feel as the letter says they have not paused the processing. They have sent this intimation as IRCC might cross 20-24 months time in processing PGP applications. Let's wait and watch for couple of weeks to see any process activities on this forum. I may request from all members to post if they receive any updates from IRCC. But one thing is for sure who received this email that their application is in que.We know no body can do anything except wait.
Have patience & all the best for everyone
