August 18: application received October 18: CC charged

Any rough estimate of how long this’ll take considering I checked yes for peace bond?

I’m in Quebec.

Oh it’s you again. We literally have the same timeline. I’ve seen some from Quebec get it within a week but also some say it’s 6 months. I am hopeful for 7 days. Is yours restricted? Mine is

Restricted for me. It does probably add more time since I’m a more complicated case with a peace bond from 7 years ago.

I think it might be closer to a year for you unfortunately

Oh boy… how come? I would understand a few extra weeks or months. But a year?!

That’s what I’ve read around the sub just to understand properly, a peace bond leads to a ‘yes’ on the questions right? Also to note I was able to get through to CFP to confirm if all my details are correct, kind lady confirmed there were no errors or missing info and that currently they are waiting for my photo to be accepted. If anyone can chime in on if that’s the same as photo scanning stage.
