Time line for Permanent Residence application for Refugees

[Sword_fish]

There are no defined steps in this process. Everything depends on some factors including who your case officer is. If you have gotten pre-arrival and eligibility letters, it could be portal invitation next if you have passed background and security checks. I hope it’s portal invitation for you. Best of luck buddy.

I still haven't got anything else.and,do I need to do biometrics again?I had biometrics when I arrived in Canada. But when I check now, it has expired.

Congratulations! I believe the medical you submitted to them is still within 3 years. That’s why they didn’t ask for another medical. When did you do your medical?

Thank you, I think I did it in July 2020

Hello Everyone,

I applied for pr as a refugee in March of 2021, I got my wait bar on 60% and my medical exam was passed last week according to my account. Eligibility and background remain not done and my estimated date of completion is Feb 2023, what should I expect next from your experience with respect to waiting times?
Thanks and good luck to you all.

Same here except that I got elegibility accepted and pre arival letter. I think for us we are waiting for criminal record and I assume portal invitation is next.

Not to worry, you will soon get eligibility and pre-arrival. Once this is cleared up, next will be portal invitation. Good luck.

Not necessarily. You can only do biometrics if you’re asked to do so by IRCC. Most times, they won’t ask you to do biometrics because the one you did previously is safely in their database and stays there for up to ten years. Just follow up heir instructions and you will be okay. If they ask for biometrics, it’s easy to give them that as you will be directed on what to do. Good luck.

You’re in your house and IRCC is working on your application.

You have to check the eCAS-Client Application Status to know if the processing of your application has started. If it has, you may have to try linking your application to your GCKey account to enable you monitor progress and respond to their requests if any. I hope you added your wife and overseas dependents in your application. It’s a long journey but I hope yours will be short.

Wishing you all the best.

Hi everyone,

I have applied for PR in March 2021 after being accepted as a protected person.
When checking my application status it says "Medical results have been received"... I guess they are referring to the medical exam results I did in 2020 when I applied for refugee status.

However, yesterday I got a message requesting a new medical exam. Is that normal? Because I thought the refugee medical exam is valid even for the pr application.

Background and eligibility are still being processed, my bar shows 57%. 10 months is the estimated remaining time according to the application status.

Hi - How did you linked your PR application and where to link the PR application?

Hi - How did you linked your PR application and where to link the PR application?

Create an account (GCKey account) and when you sign in to the account, you’ll see the option to link your application to the account using details you already know like UCI Number, your family name, date of birth etc. Try it and you may be lucky. I am not that lucky but many here are. All the best.

I submitted Online PR application on Sep 2021 , after that Just only got a status change mail but nothing changed on my application status in PR portal. So i called IRCC on their automation phone system +18882422100 and followed the instruction .
Here is my application status:

" If we needed more information from you or a Final decision has been made , we will contact you .

we are reviewing whether you meet the eligibility requirement .

We do not need additional documents .

you do not medical examination .

you do not need an interview.

you do not need your fingerprint .

We are processing your Background Check "

I have overseas wife & dependents.

Can any body explain where i am now ?

Same situation with me my application since 2020 and IRCC doesn’t care about us and No right for us . Canada sucks

Congratulations! Your journey is approaching its end. I believe that once you do and pass your medical, portal request for photos and address confirmation would be next. Kudos.
