Because MANY people log on here to see timelines, not discussions, lets keep THIS thread ONLY for timelines. Then people don;t have to sift through to find out how long they are taking. I was trying to amend the old one but it got deleted, so I saved the last page, and added a bit to it. My apologies if you were looking for old info. The page was getting spammed all the time and had a lot of comments on it.

As for the timeline......when the fees went up the backlog slowed these applications down. That backlog is GONE. They could get every application they have done by Thanksgiving if they want. They do NOT want then done quickly. If this seems like "why would they do that?" then you aren't paying attention. Notice Canada has tariffs for made up reasons, and we have been threatened by Annexation. Notice Russia has not a SINGLE TARIFF. Notice Trump met with Putin in Alaska and got embarrassed. And STILL his "friends" have tariffs and the Russians.....nothing.
@The CHI he’s lying lol all lying timelines he’s not a lawyer talks to himself lol
Just to re-establish the timelines for people looking for that. Here is a recent post.
We have a "troll" who is having a mental health issue, so please ignore him if you are looking for information. This is current timeline information which is still recent, less than 2 weeks old.
Hey Joel. These are EXACT timelines of waivers that are completed. I "cut and paste" the actual timeline.
The website hasn't been changed in over a year.
This one is from yesterday. He went to the border "10/27/2025, 02:02 PM : Status changed to Submitted to ARO"
and his Waiver was granted "01/26/2026, 12:03 PM : Status changed to Completed"
This is EXACTLY 91 days. This is a REAL person. I do waivers for a living. That's where I get the data, I have been recording data for years.

Here is some OLD data. Top one took 99 days. Middle same. Bottom, 100 days. So even in 2022 Waivers took more than the "usual 90" days.

So you waited a whole hour and then complained that I didn't respond to you? Also noticed you were Stansfield then suddenly Stanfield. Show me your "cut and paste" from eSAFE, because i actually now think you might be a troll. NAd why would you refuse to text me for a direct answer? I sense bullshit.
I don't usually o on the forum on the weekends, mostly at work. (i coach basketball on the weekends so too busy usually) But that's ok, yes not sure why a 2015 possession would still be pending 12 months later, should have been done by now. They should not be considering to deny it unless the waiver was poorly done. I guess we will see what the results are when you get it. Don't bother with emails, a complete waste of time. Just keep checking eSafe, I assume you used eSafe?
@J Rogers weird tells me to text him but won’t respond on the forum he made very odd maybe these remarks are right about you
@J Rogers filed at border Feb 9 2025 possession charge from 2015 first offence first waiver don’t understand what’s going on I figured I should have it by now they havnt asked for more info nothing no updates as I’ve tried countless times thru emails
[ Chris stanfield appended this reply on February 7, 2026 @ 11:57 am ]
But I was warned by everyone that it would be MINIMUM 12 months guess they weren’t joking
If you want text me a little more info and maybe I can tell you why its taking longer than usual.

@jrogers serious question never been on this forum tried to scroll down seen non sense but hey I hit the border February 11 I havnt heard anything wonder what’s going on am I still in the timeline range as I’ve heard nothing and can’t get no updates form there email
@J Rogers lol…I agree it’s kinda lame talking and replying to these lames… let these keyboard warriors be. Don’t get discouraged Just continue posting timelines since there’s more people like me than the 350lbs dude that actually find this forum so helpful.
Thank you and I’ll be checking in when I do my renewal.
Not that this guy would ever meet you, but he is like 350 lbs lol. Heavy smoker and Ken says he couldn't sit too close to him during the radio show because he has some "condition". I don;t want to "shame" him anymore than he is already doing.
He is just a sad man, probably a bit lonely. If you saw him, you would actually feel a bit sorry for him. Just ignore him. I sent a message to the admin who is going to look into it. It is a shame, but we will continue to share information and he can do whatever. Honestly we are probably doing him a favor by giving him any attention at all. No one does stuff like this unless they have some issues. Hopefully he can get the help he needs.
