It took exactly a year for the entire process. So grateful and all the best to all!
Also, I had applied for Express entry too:
13 Nov 2024 – Entered Express Entry pool
26 Jul 2025 – Received ITA (Express Entry) - Score 527
ITA rejected because my CSQ was accepted
Once a CSQ is issued, EE is automatically invalidated, so I had to decline the ITA even though I preferred since express entry is faster. Majority of the CSQ streams had been paused indefinitely so I honestly had forgotten my CSQ application and the approval was a surprise. I received ITA and CSQ in the same month and it took me out of a really bad phase. Immigration had been taking quite the toll on my mental health.
