Applicants applying to a PNP application will often receive a decision on their candidacy within 6 months if applying through Express Entry and within 1-2 years if applying through a non-Express Entry PNP program. Normally, processing times will largely depend on the program and region where a candidate is applying.
In general, most people wait between 15-19 months for both their PNP application and permanent residence application to be processed.
