I been reading a lot of similar comments in regards to when people can expect a response after applying for the CPP. It seems some people are under the impression that you should expect a response or invite to interview fairly soon after you apply.
I think it's fair to assume that the vast majority of applicants will not receive any response at all. If you can appreciate that everyone and their dog from around the world has likely applied for this new program, there are probably thousands upon thousands of applications on file.
Traditionally for the DESO/DEFO routes, some people have continuously applied for years and still not had a response.
This isn't meant as a rant, rather to add some perspective and perhaps ease some stress from your life. Don't bank on receiving a response, continue living your life and pursuing your goals. If you do indeed get a reply, consider yourself in the extreme minority of applicants!
Best of luck.
