Hi everyone!

I'm applying with PR and I want to know what will be timeline for applications with PR right now, as I read some information that will be speed up after FEB 2024.

My eldest son will be returning from Belgium to Ottawa to attend Algonquin College. He would like to join the PR in a local unit. Does anyone have POC's/first steps handy. Can he start the process whilst still in Belgium? Any assistance would be appreciated.

I'm in the process too.

Applied Feb 2024, did CFAT & fitness eval end of March. I know the recruiter contacted at least one of my references and they had asked me for a few extra documents, which I've sent.

Haven't heard on the next step yet but only 2 months into the process so it's very early. I figure to wait a few weeks then maybe touch base every other week with an email to make sure nothing is missing and I haven't missed any other requests.

Also PR, but have been a PR for 6 years or so and in Canada for a decade now.

There are three levels. For the most part, applicants are not normally required to obtain level 3 prior to enrolment, but there are rare exceptions.

Level 2 will take a long time. The people who are doing our security screening are working on some improvements, but right now they are backlogged by more than a year.

Above level 2 is level 3. Beyond that, and you get into some pretty complex need to know clearances in specific areas that aren't "levels" per se.

The timeline for a level 2 clearance is "it depends". If you've been a world traveller all your life with years spent in countries that Canada has little diplomatic contact with, it will normally be much longer than if you've spent your life in Cape Breton and the only "big trip" you ever took was to Moncton.
