How does it work that you submit Application #2 and do you cancel Application #1 and recover the application fee? Do they recognise that they already have biometrics from the Application #1 when you submit #2?
It seems really unfortunate if there's a pot luck system where an application might progress where another just stalled. We are using a solicitor so I'm now thinking whether I open up a second app myself
.
I submitted webform quoting I want to withdraw 1st Application. In response they said refund is not guaranteed but they will withdraw my application soon.
You can try applying second time if nothing is moving then. But just to let you know that I am still stuck on eligibility review and it's around a month since then.
Good luck and

The content of the letter read:
----------------------------------------------
I am not satisfied that you will leave Canada at the end of your stay as required by paragraph 179(b) of the IRPR (https://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/regulations/SOR-2002-227/ section-179.html). I am refusing your application because you have not established that you will leave Canada, based on the following factors:
• Your proposed length of stay in Canada is inconsistent with a temporary stay given the details you have provided in your application.
• You have significant family ties in Canada.
• You do not have significant family ties outside Canada.
• The purpose of your visit to Canada is not consistent with a temporary stay given the details you have provided in your application.
You are welcome to reapply if you feel that you can respond to these concerns and can demonstrate that your situation meets the requirements. All new applications must be accompanied by a new processing fee.

Hello everyone,
I applied for my spouse's Visitor Visa on May 5th, 2022, However, I did not get any response. While I applied during that time processing time is 120 days and now the processing time is 158 days from the INDIA location. My question is whether my file processing time is considered 120 days or a new processing time of 158 days. Please advise so I can take action accordingly as it has been already 3 months and not had any response.
