there is only one person that is saying 2-3 years. I have not heard it anywhere else or by anyone else.
what qualifies these remarks? is CIC offering this data?
Before we all go jump off a bridge, let´s get our information straight from a source we can verify.

It´s really pathetic that CIC is so quiet on the issue. A basic courtesy would be to send a letter to all applicants (after all we paid hundreds of dollars as fees) explaining the new court verdict and its potential impact. Keeping people in dark will only hurt Canadian goal of inviting best skilled people.

sure, but one thing. As far as i know; every cic post has its own quota, and buffalo doesnot have much of pre 2002 cases still pending. and for example if 200,000 cases are pending in asia.... they r not gonna take the quota from the rest of the posts and issue visa´s there. So i think ppl who applied to Buffalo will be fine and will not be affected to a great extent by this.
Cheers

Wakipaki, there are only so many visa´s granted each year, if place "a" has 50,000 applicants and a quota of 10,000 then they will get from place "b´s" quota. They HAVE to grant these visa´s, they have no choice, there is a time limit, and there has been no legislation passed to raise the total immigration levels.
As things stand RIGHT NOW it is very likely that Buffalo will have quota taken from them and also any other areas with a high quota are the most likely to suffer. Buffalo, london, etc.
Every Visa office will be affected unless they pass legislation to help speed up the process, more workers and a higher quota.
ME, I agree with you but they don´t have to send letters. A website with a link from the CIC main site would be enough and would cost almost nothing.
Sharon, The court case isn´t conjecture and neither are the number of applicants or the yearly targets. Unless they change something I think the estimated timelines are about right, the math works. But I don´t think it´s panic time, all they have to do is raise the yearly target to match the applications (and dependents) and it´s a non issue. Or they can do nothing and leave people to panic and have no way of planning their lives for the foreseeable future, for some reason I think we´ll get the second option.

no each region has its qouto, if this was not the case, the application processing times for all regions would have been the same.

Brian reread my post, I said if a region has more applicants that their quota. This has nothing to do with the past processing times it has to do with daling with the huge infulx of cases.
They have to process these cases, read about the court decision this is not a maybe they have to do it and they have a time limit. Regional quotas are 100% irrelivent! Unless they raise the overall yearly quota the current quota will HAVE to be redistibured to the areas with the biggest backlog.

do we actually know how many applications are still in the system from the lawsuit? a million years ago when this all started they had a number. how many dropped out, how many will still be refused, how many have re-applied to avoid the wait? we don´t know. I agree that will take some time to get those lawsuite applications through IA again but most of that work was already done before! Remember they were declined against the new passmark so someone obviously looked at them.
How many actual PR´s are issued from that group is likely still unknown. We are only 6 months post settlement.
I am not suggesting there is no impact at all, but I think we might save ourselves a lot of heart ache by waiting a little bit longer to see what is happening. Perhaps those target dates already factor in the lawsuit applications...
nobody knows. 2 years of lawsuit settlement will not add 10 years to your application time. lets be a little more sane about this.

normally CIC will raise the pass work if they have to regulate the number of applications , just like they did 2 year back from 75 to 67, since this has not yet happened I am expecting all those who have applied from Jan-March 05 , should get their IA by March , 06.

Quota in Buffalo (in reply to: Huge Delay in Buffalo office about 2 to 3 years m)
I hope the current application has less priority than old applications. I hot my IA in March medical, documents in April and medical in Aug.
I wrote an e-mail to Buffalo office describing my case and requested to update my current status.
Got a reply within a week and says that ase will be reviewed in early next year (2006).
So what it means? No processing is done on current cases.
