Hello all,

I have been enjoying the forum before it was deleted. I can see that people are getting so pessimistic due to the long wait for both IRB hearing and then the long march to PR. I am one of you who have been through these seemingly endless processes. Patience is the one big thing I have learned here in Canada; this is a waiting country, alas! But I still hope and have a bit of optimism towards my recent PR application since December 2019.

I was granted a convention refugee status in November 2019 after three years of waiting as refugee claimant. Below is my timeline for PR application.

I am wondering how relatively fast my application is going (as you can see from the timeline below, I and my dependents oversees completed biometric, medical and police certificate in almost one month) but at the same time I feel lost because I haven’t received any update regarding eligibility requirement even though I submitted all the requested documents four months ago. Note: I have received a letter from IRCC that I am selected for Centralized Concurrent Processing Pilot, whatever that is.

I would be happy if someone with the same experience shares his thought about when I will get eligibility requirements updates and what should I expect in the coming months.

Permanent Residence

  1. We received your application for permanent residence on December 18, 2019.
  2. We sent you correspondence acknowledging receipt of your application(s) on December 21, 2019.
  3. We started processing your application on December 20, 2019.
  4. We sent you correspondence on December 20, 2019. This is about me being selected for Centralized Concurrent Processing Pilot
  5. We sent you a letter on December 20, 2019. This is about the forms my dependents oversees have to fill and send it to Mississauga
  6. We sent you correspondence on January 9, 2020. This is about biometric and police certificate for both myself and my dependents oversees
  7. We sent you medical instructions on January 9, 2020.
  8. Medical results have been received.

I am so pissed right now!
I am may 2019 applicant
They started my criminality check since october 2019,receive my last correspondence February 2020 and since then not a single update.
I contacted my MP this week. They just call me and tell me that my application is at Winsdor and they stop working on my app because it's not urgent. I am so mad that i am crying right now.
Is there anything i can do? Should i hire a lawyer?

I’m July 2019. This is ridiculous how they are treating people. I’m so mad also. I have 30days. If nothing I’ll contact MP and send couple of mail all around Ottawa people. Just can’t believe this. How we can live here normal life.
