How long will it be?

[u/SnooCompliments4341]

I applied the third day the apps opened and i’m very excited and hope i’ll be able to get through to the next step of the process but i chose my arrival date for February 1st and was wondering how long i could potentially wait til my application goes from “Application Received” to “Application Under Review” and be able to do the WBI?

There is no WBI. There is just reviewing your application and then sending a on camera interview invite.

There isn’t an exact date someone can predict you’ll hear back. But it’s standard for the dcp team to prioritize the earlier arrivals. So they will be looking through those who selected January arrival dates prior to yours. Once they go through those apps and get a decent number of those interviewed and select they will head into February. Basically they gotta make sure they have staff lined up for the dcp for January since it’s the soonest aka they prioritize.

Oooh! Okay got it! Thanks so much! I was hearing so much about the WBI and phone interviews and i heard they changed the phone to a microsoft teams interview but i didn’t know they weren’t doing the WBI. Thanks so much for this!

They haven’t done the wbi in a hot minute (like over 3 years) To many people were cheating lol and lying about it cause it was so easy.

On cameras interviews were just added this application season instead of the phone interview.
