Afghanistan committee For those who are here, we would have to go back and look at what kind of screening was done at DND at the time. I think it would vary, depending on other things. With regard to the families of interpreters who were resettled in 2009 and 2012, that definition of “family” in the

Afghanistan committee I have some, but I don't have it all. We have moved temporary duty officers into the region. We do them in rotations now to keep up that work. We have reprioritized staff from other lines of business to work on these particular lines of business, but for the exact number that we

Afghanistan committee We would have that number for the applications that we have on hand, Minister. For those extended family members of interpreters who were resettled in 2009 and 2012, we believe all but 250 are still in Afghanistan. For those remaining SIM applications, Ms. MacIntyre—

Afghanistan committee Of those applications, we have approved more than 10,000. Of those, 5,644 are here in Canada and resettled. We have another almost 5,000 in our landing inventory, which means they've been approved. The rest of those applications are at various stages of review and processing.

Afghanistan committee With the exodus from Kabul, we were able to resettle about 3,700 initially. I'll have to double-check whether all of them fall into that same category of special immigration measures that we put in place, but the majority of those would fall into that category.

Citizenship and Immigration committee I think there will probably be more that comes through in mains and supplementary estimates around this in future years, but I believe that's covered.

Citizenship and Immigration committee That's part of our backlog reduction strategy, to be able to bring the timelines for that super visa way back down into our service standards. Now that the border has reopened for discretionary travel and parents and grandparents are able to come on that super visa, we need to ge

Citizenship and Immigration committee Actually, it depends on the country of origin. There are different approval rates for different countries, but we're looking at the same things when we go through this. Can you support yourself? Are you showing us an intention that if things don't work out for you in Canada, y
