It could remain pending for as long as 23/24 months. We've seen both successes and rejections at that length of time so all you can do is wait. Length of time is not an indicator of success or failure.

Hi! Just want to ask a question.

My PR application is already pending for a month. Just want to ask whether my pending application will get affected if I change employer.

I have an offer from another company, a private company. They are offering a higher position role but same salary. I am not taking any actions yet as I don’t want to jeopardize my pending PR application.

Thank you for your help. Have a nice day!

Hello! I would like to know my chances for my PR application. Thank you!


My profile:
Gender : Male
Age : 33
Marital Status: Single
Ethnicity: Chinese
Nationality - Hong Kong, China
Country of Origin: Hong Kong
Length of Stay: 2014 to Present (6 years of full year tax assessment)
Education: Bachelor Degree
Job: Supply Chain Manager
Current Annual Salary - 60K + performance bonus (pay cut due to Covid)
Previously i was drawing 85 to 95K / annual

I applied for my PR last year 7 Nov 2019, and it has been almost 1 year since i submitted my application.
I didnt hear anything from the ICA Portal while i keep checking it everyday and the status is still pending, i tried to email ICA by asking if there is further doc. needed but they replied no additional doc is needed for the time being

A lot of people tell me that no news is good news and I also understand that due to the current situation, the process would be slow while the bar to be a PR may raise.

but still it would be great if i can hear some opinion from the professional ....

Thank you so much
You may have a chance of around 40%

I just receive an email from ICA asking me to provide some additional Document.
Hope all is good :)
I just received the IPA fr ICA after 1.5 years of waiting :)

Hello all and the experts,

I know there is no definitive answer to my questions, but please share your latest experience on the following:
1. Approx PR approval timelines (Could be 3months-2years, but what has been true for MOST of the cases)
2. Will the 'submit addition documents' option definitely disappear if the decision is made?
3. How long 'usually' one needs to wait after the additional documents have been asked for?
4. Has anyone reached out to ICA requesting faster processing and got a response?

Sorry if these questions were asked and answered on the forum before.
