The lawyer does not make any difference, applying yourself is better because you get to check status anytime you want. The processing time for applications from Qatar last April was 449 days and varying every week up and down. Currently it is 322 days. However, that is an average of all TRV applications they processed including student and work permits which are prioritized in addition to delayed visitor visas, so the wait continues. Looks like I am on the way to a record waiting time for a visit visa !
Bro whats your application status now?

I applied from Qatar too on 31 july 2022 and got BVL ON 13 April 2023 and no OPR yet but there is Visa number and expiry on Tracker though.

i realized that most dudes from your region have to wait for too long with no responses after bvl. yours seems unique having a visa number. clearly the stages sequence are different. but in my opinion, having a visa document number is a win. regardless of the gckey delays.

First of all there is no update which is directly effecting to ircc and secondly we are have to apply from outside of Canada which fully operational.
We'll see... since nothing csn be predictable with their processing.

One of my friend applied from Qatar just few days before me, as usual he didn't receive any update, so he sent a webform and he got reply in 2days and 3rd day he got OPR in December 2022.

Strike dose not leave impact on our applications.
not necessarily true.
the ircc office within Canada is affected for sure.
while those outside of Canada aren't fully affected.
i say this because, take for instance - you were sent ppr.
or you are in a process that requires the head office in Canada to certify or approve a document.
if the foreign office(e.g ircc Kenya) makes a request to the home office in Canada, they might get indefinite delays.
...which in turn affects the applicant(s) outside of Canada.
