I applied June 28. Eligibility review just started. I logged in and saw that.

I applied on the same day but still wait for any update

It will come soon. My eligibility is still being reviewed. How long does that take before approval?

Hope so T_T According to cases I saw before, the final decision will usually be made within 3 days.

I applied with a dependent on June 8 and still nothing. Should I be worried?

No dont worry. In my case also if applied with dependents it takes forever. Please be patient

Nope, I applied on May10th and we have lot of people applied in and waiting. The processing speed has slowed, last time a person got after 197 days.

Most likely by today or next week you should get a decision.

Hopefully. I have already created my trv application in the portal. Once I get the PGWP approval, I will pay for my trv application immediately. Far fetched but I have a flight booked for december 23rd.

If you get your PGWP approved tomorrow, for example, you would submit the TRV application the same day, Nov 19. TRV approvals are taking around 30-40 days. Then you get PPR and you gotta send your passport, which would normally take a couple of weeks to come back. I don't think you would make it for Dec 23.

Sure, I agree. I wasn't trying to bring you down, just being a bit realistic. You might want to be ready for any travel date changes.
