15k for 2025. Which means processing will likely slow down.

So if I already got an additional doc request does that mean I’ve been accepted as part of the 2025 Que? Or not guaranteed until I get the AOR?

I think ADR doesnt mean its in the que , its just that they opened the application. I believe AOR is what matters and also now saying 15K for 2025 will it be first come first serve kind?.
Rest of the eligible will go to 2026 , its very unclear.

But they gave a deadline of 30 days for ADRs that might mean they are part of the Que? Also an application number is assigned. I have not heard back yet after submitting the ADR items requested.

Those that they haven’t opened yet makes sense to put them in the next years Que.

Thats the temporary number, to my knowledge . I also got the ADR request early dec and submitted on 31st. Others who have got ADR and AOR might comment did the application number changed after getting AOR.

Lets hope for the best .

I heard from someone (I could be wrong) that the temp number is just the real number with the “xf” added behind it. I have the same timeline as yours. ADR received Nov 27 and docs submitted Dec 12.

this is the wording on the ADR letter
“When you submit your documentation, please ensure that this letter is also included. All
documents submitted must be in English or French or accompanied by a certified translation. If
your application meets the requirements for processing, it will then enter the processing queue
based on the receiving date that it was determined to be complete”

I bet they still send out AORs BUT don’t process it until 2026 if the 15,000 cap is met for 2025

This is not an official IRCC website. And I cannot find anything about this annoucement on any of the IRCC official media page, twitter, news release, so just curious how reliable this news article is??? Thank you.

IRCC said they would accept 20,500 complete applications before this announcement came out today. Now they are saying they will process 15,000 in 2025. I’m trying to determine if someone already got ADR they will be processed this year or not

Yeah, Annoucement does not answer that specifically. Hope for the best!!!

Could be , so if the AOR comes then that means atleast documents are good and it will be processed ..
Now whether that will be in 2025/26, we need to wait and watch how they will determine 15K for 2025.
