Thanks , looks like everyone is getting this XEP number which seems to be of no use for the moment.

I am a victim of Bill 9, I hope Federal people speed up. I am happy that even XEP was quick for me. For my friends it took 2-3 months.

Anyways, I have no option than staying in limbo. my work permit has expired. so Crossing fingers.
One quick question, I see One webpage says its 17 months for processing time and another one says its 26 months. Is there any post/thread where I can see stats for 2020 to atleast get an idea how long it will take for next steps.

Thanks in advance.

Those processing times are utter rubbish and of no use, when you call the IRCC number the IVR does say that our processing times are not up to date so its better to go with real life scenarios which we see here and on the FB page
Thanks

Hi All,
I recently sent my application to Sydney, NS. Recently MIDI has been exceptional in processing CSQ applications.
Hope this rubs off on the Federal as well. My signature has my timeline.
Had I not lost my Passport in September I could have received my CSQ in October itself.
Thanks,
Rajat

Hi All,

Quebec generally accepts about 20,000 Economic Immigrants which mainly come from Skilled worker category.
Since the start of Arrima in July 2019 a total of 2700 invitations have been issued.
So given that 2020 went for a toss, is it reasonable to assume that we might see some speed up in processing PR applications from Quebec.
I am just wondering how many applications from Quebec might be in the pipeline.
This might be oversimplification but I do hope picks up some pace soon.

Before xmas break Jan 2019 applicants got few responses. I'm guessing it would take 6 more months which is June 2021 to hear something regarding AORs for applicants since July 2019 and eventually 2020 applicants.

As we know from previous cases that it takes atleast a year for medicals after AOR, I'm presuming 2019 applicants could scream glory late 2022 and 2020 applicants late 2023.

If any policies change in the meanwhile then my guess would be as good as IRCC or MIFI which is "we don't know".

Agree. My assumption is minimum 36-42 months for January 2019 applications onwards. There maybe some cases here and there in-between just to revitalize hopes of those who crave for it.

As I can see lately, even with the Covid, some people are receiving their PR in less than 24 months.
