Methodology & limitations

What these numbers are - and are not

Who is countedApplicants who created a timeline in the GetNorthPath PR Tracker with an AOR date in January 2026 and the inland stream. Each applicant counts once.

How milestones are recordedApplicants log each stage manually after seeing it in their own IRCC account or PR portal. Nothing is read from IRCC systems; we have no access to any application file.

Sub-check denominatorsCriminality, security and information-sharing rows use the 43 members who report sub-stages, because those statuses are only visible inside an individual's IRCC status tracker login.

Refresh cadenceAggregates rebuild weekly. This page was last refreshed on October 28, 2026.

Publication thresholdCohorts below 25 tracked applicants are not published to search engines, because small samples produce misleading percentages.

Known limitationsSelf-selection (people who track tend to be actively engaged), reporting lag (a milestone may be reached days before it is logged), and uneven program mix mean these figures describe this community, not all IRCC applicants.

Common questions

About the January 2026 inland cohort

Where is the January 2026 inland cohort right now?

As of October 28, 2026, 47% of the 92 tracked applicants have logged the start of a background check, 68% have passed medicals and 15% have a final decision. The cohort is 300 days past AOR. These figures are community-reported and refresh weekly.

Am I behind if my cohort is ahead of me?

Not necessarily. Spreads of several weeks per milestone are normal even within one AOR month, because visa office, document completeness and background-check depth all differ. A useful rule: if you are more than one full milestone behind the cohort majority and past the typical day for that stage, check your IRCC account and consider a follow-up.

What are the self-reported sub-checks?

Criminality, security and information sharing are visible only inside each applicant's own IRCC status tracker login, so members log them by hand. Percentages for those three rows use the 43 members of this cohort who report sub-stages, not all 92.

How do I join the January 2026 inland cohort?

Enter an AOR date in January 2026 with the inland stream in the free tracker and you are placed in this cohort automatically. Your milestones then sharpen these numbers for everyone who comes after you.

How often do these numbers change?

Aggregates rebuild weekly; this page was last refreshed on October 28, 2026. Older cohorts move slowly because most milestones are already reached; newer cohorts change fastest in their first three months.
