New Instructions from IRCC for applications before 7th Sep 2021

[Robotisict]

It is not,

the general one is "Your application is in progress. We will send you a message when we start reviewing your eligibility."

Thanks. I though the default status you noted is that of the IRCC account (GCKey), not the portal. Can you please explicitly confirm that both defaults are as what you said?

 

[Robotisict]

Your eligibility check has started, it's not default. It's a good sign.
From which country are you applying?

Thanks.
The visa office of ours is Ankara, Turkey.

Processing time is 42 Calendar Days after 7th September, So let's see if they keep their promise. I submitted mine on 8th September for Spouse.

Are the waiting times provided on the GC KEY webpage accurate?(https://www.canada.ca/en/immigratio...vices/application/check-processing-times.html)

Good question because for some offices they seem to be increasing to even more than 1 year!

Cursing IRCC has become one of our daily chores. All I needed was stupid TRV on an approved Work Permit

Someday We all will get there... Stay positive

Guys, my wife's TRV was approved just now! I applied on Sept 6th and if you look below, it says the eligibility is under review but application is approved and I also received the PPR email! So, there's no guarantee these statuses will change often.

Do you think the “ghost” update you received two days ago might have something to do with this approval? My sister got the ghost update yesterday, so I’m really hoping her good news is on the way as well
