Dear Friends,

I thought of asking this question and see your view.

Do we have any advantage of applying Federal application between Mar-Aug timeframe instead of Oct-Dec. This is just to understand if there is going to be any delay in final processing(DM) when we apply Oct-Dec because of CIC quota for that year getting over. I checked the Timeline sheet and found that friends applied between Mar-July in 2016 got DM in on and average 330 days. At the same time those who had applied in Oct-Dec got after 380 days.

Any idea on processing time in Mar-July 2017 this year


Any thoughts on above questions friends

Well, maybe you're right. My application (oct 2016) took 14 months for DM.

But if I were you , i'd apply as early as i can. No point to delay this i think.
Laws can change, fees can increase. And nothing guarantees processing times.

Good luck :)

As for me I have applied in July'2016 but still waiting for the DM.

So I completely agree with @MTL2MTL that one should apply as early as possible.

So Good Luck dear @NMontD

Thank you MTL2MTL for your advise

Do you have any idea on what was the timeline before 13 months ? (not talking about recent 14 months) was that same since beginning or got changed in 2016 or 2017... In other words what was when you had applied in Oct 2016

Also, the rules get applied(if changes ) to all who applied newly or existing whose application is in process

Thanks

As I am following this thread since last 1.5 years the average processing time is 12-13 months (on an average).
However it varies on the work load of the concerned visa office.

From my point of view there is nothing changed in terms of the Rules under QSW stream (Federal stage) in the recent time however @MTL2MTL has advised in his reply that you should apply as Soon as possible because anytime the rules,fee etc. Can changed.
Hope this helps.

Thank you Sunnymks for your reply.

Firstly Best wishes with your processing.

On timeline i have mentioned was more on CIC portal where it shows for QSW PR processing. Was that always 13 months or less/more than that. again this is excluding recent changes of 14 months

Yes exactly earlier it was of 13 months then it changed to 14 months (I think in September/October) then went back to 13 months somewhere in November but now again increased to 14 months.
So it depends on the workload of the VO.

I wish you all the best for your future.

Could you please advise the E mail or the phone number to where I should ask about my file status in case of not receiving the AOR
I received my AOR about 2.5 months after sending my application. And most of the applicants receive their AOR around that time too. So yes it is kinda weird although there have been some delays. Contact them and ask them about it to be 100% sure.

I'm sooooooo excited, in the middle of the night, I got an email from CIC.... and I opened ECAS and MyCIC....

ECAS: Decision Made
MyCIC: Invitation to Pre-arrival services

I cannot express enough how surprised I was, because I'm in the states, I have to send my fingerprints to RCMP via 3rd party, hence the CIC only received my RCMP report on Dec 22 by email. The actual RCMP is still on the way and scheduled to be delivered TOMORROW!

I already told myself millions times that nothing would happen till 2018, but wow, it did happen!

CSQ via PEQ inland VO: Ottawa
APP 2016-11-03
AOR 2017-02-13
MR 2017-03-29
RPRF request 2017-10-13

DM: 2017-12-28

Best Luck to you all!!
