Journeys tracked

Median days AOR to eCOPR, by stream

Community medians from real applicants who completed the journey. At least 3 timelines per stream. Solid bars are observed data, not IRCC projections.

Community median, from real applicants

Each bar is the middle wait for people in that stream who have reached eCOPR (half took less, half took more). Streams vary because IRCC processes them at different offices and draws happen at different cadences. If your stream shows a shorter bar than another, it reflects what the community has seen so far, not a guarantee for your own file.

Inland vs Outland, applicant count

Count of tracked applicants by where they filed their application.

51% Inland (5,491)49% Outland (5,366)

Inland applications (from within Canada) follow a different IRCC intake process from outland ones (from outside Canada). Knowing the split helps you compare your situation to the right group in the data.

Busiest locations, applicant count

Where members say their file is, as entered on the community tracker. Some enter a specific visa office, others their province. Hover a bar to see the exact number.

IRCC routes files to different offices by stream and location. Busier offices often have longer queues, but processing order and timelines vary by file.

AOR to eCOPR duration, count of applicants per 60-day band

How long completed waits ran, grouped into 60-day intervals. The darkest bar is the most common outcome.

The shape of this chart tells you where most waits have clustered. A tight peak means outcomes have been consistent; a wide, flat distribution means waits have varied a lot. If you are still waiting, your outcome could land anywhere along this range.

Monthly AOR volume, count of AORs per month

How many community members recorded receiving their AOR each calendar month. Solid line is observed count data.

Higher volume months represent larger cohorts moving through the system together. When a particular month saw many AORs, it can also take longer for everyone in that cohort to clear processing, since IRCC works through files in rough AOR order within each draw.

Built from timelines people shared themselves. They tell you how the wait has gone for others, which can be steadying to see. They describe the past; they do not predict any individual outcome, including yours.

Community median, from real applicants

A rising or falling line tells you whether more recent cohorts have been waiting longer or shorter than older ones. Keep in mind that the most recent months may have fewer completed timelines, since many people in those cohorts are still waiting.

Median days AOR to eCOPR, by reported location

Community medians (days) grouped by the location members enter on the community tracker. Some enter a specific visa office, others their province. At least 3 applicants per location in your filtered set. Solid bars are observed data.

Community median, from real applicants

Processing times vary by office because IRCC assigns files differently by stream, category, and applicant location. A longer bar for your office does not mean your file will hit the median; individual files move on their own schedule.
