Please has anyone gotten approval on their visitors visa application from the UK London office. Kindly share your timeline and what you did. My wife has applied since FEB 7th, 2023 and no response., Still on background check and eligibility not yet started. Are we really affected by the 556 days processing time? I heard some applications didn't have to wait that long.
Thank you

In 2022 when I applied for the visitor visa in Paris, it took 4 months to get my visa. Infact, at a point I started sending them emails. So I can imagine that with a lot more interest for canada from around the world, they would be really overwhelmed processing applications.

you should consider sending them emails at the UK office if you find it.

Thank you for your response. They do not respond to emails. We have sent countless.

Hi, I submitted two applications. The first one was on the 25th of January, but I couldn't complete the biometric process. Then, I submitted the second application on the 15th of February, and for the biometric section, I provided details indicating that I had completed it in 2017. Now, both applications show that biometric processing is completed, but the background check is still in progress.
