Inland APR Eligibility Decision Letter

[charbs]

Hello, i got the approval in principal letter (Inland APR Eligibility Decision Letter) 4 days after the pre arrival letter. It has been 5 weeks since the AIP and nothing yet. The application tracker shows medical and biometrics as completed but background is still in progress and eligibility is not started yet. How is this possible although i got the approval in principal? And any idea about the timeline?

That’s completely normal. Only now December and January applicants are receiving background check completion and portal invites +eCOPR, and they had AIP in like February or march. I’m a February applicant and I received AIP in march, very fast. Haven’t heard anything since. Rn inland applications (outside quebec) are taking around 11 months.

QC applications take longer than non-QC applications. Since you just got your AIP, you have months left until your background check is completed. The average processing time for QC Inland applications is currently 2 years. Unfortunately, the only thing you can do now is wait.

PS: the Application Status Tracker is not working. It broke in mid-June.

It might be a good idea but not needed until your current status is closer to expiring. Maybe wait until one month is left on your current WP? I am not familiar with QC timelines.

I checked the processing time it says 119 days. Also, can i apply for a TRV with the OWP? Or will I have to wait for the OWP to be issued so that i could apply for a TRV?
