Startup Visa Program Timeline

[yyyyuuuooo]

The newest update shows the processing time is 33 months now.
I thought IRCC was trying to clear up the backlogs. How come the processing time is even longer now?

Sydney is a central intake office. From there they sort out the applications and send them to different Visa offices according to the stream.

Hi everyone!

I received a request for additional documents yesterday Jan 31 and a medical request today Feb 1.
I got AOR on November 9 and my application was received in July 2020.

Great News.

Mind to share what additional documents they asked for?

Hi everyone. I applied for PR using a lawyer who told me that we have to wait for the file number in order to apply for the work permit. However, I see some of you applied for WP before their PR - how is that? Is my lawyer wrong?

Nope, you don't need a file number for applying for a work permit.
I applied for PR in Oct 2022 and applied for WP Nov 2022. I have just received my ppr for wp yesterday
