IRCC has confirmed the processing of the paper-based PR applications
On August 23, 2020, Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) has confirmed that the department keeps processing paper-based permanent residence applications to the extent possible on its official Twitter account. IRCC also tweeted that applicants couldn’t re-submit a paper-based PR application online. IRCC also stated they are unable to provide accurate processing timelines for various applications. It is worth noting, that many provincial governments postponed the processing of paper-based application as a part of measures to reduce the risks of the COVID-19 infection. At the same time, the federal government will not process paper applications for visitor visas, study and work permits until further notice.
