Immigration Processing Times Tracker

As of IRCC's February 28, 2026 disclosure, most Canadian Experience Class applications were finalized in 5 months and most Federal Skilled Worker applications in 7 months (80th percentile). This page records those official figures, plus ESDC LMIA averages, with the date we checked them.

Permanent residence and citizenship figures below are from IRCC's forward-looking processing times (flpt-en.json), last updated October 9, 2026, checked on this site on 2026-10-13. Study, work, and visitor visa figures remain from IRCC's CIMM disclosure as of February 28, 2026 because the live country JSON (data-ptime-en.json, updated October 7, 2026) is country-specific and has no single national figure matching this tracker. LMIA figures come from ESDC's monthly LMIA processing-times page. Confirm on IRCC's and ESDC's processing-times pages before filing. Always confirm the live estimate on IRCC's processing times tool before you plan travel or work.
