I started this thread to find out if many applicants have had their visitor visas rejected because their expected travel dates passed due to processing delays in their applications.

You probably find none.

With the newest regulation of not providing 10 year visas as standard, how would official decide on visa duration if travel dates are already gone? I have a december travel date mentioned in the application, but now the plans are to travel in June 2025.

They’ll probably look at that .
Look at previous travel history to Canada more closely . Is someone using their visitors visa to quasi live in Canada ? Have they been compliant not overstaying in previous trips ? Has there situation changed ?
What’s the economic situation in there country ?
They could only get a one entry permit , or a shorter period . Example one year , two year
They’ll still want to have strong reasons to return to there home country versus the blanket approvals done in the past

Probably got to this point because individuals were feeling it was there right to get a visa , but all along it isn’t

The outcome largely depends on the Visa Officer reviewing the application. After exploring various forums, I've observed that there are two possible results: a rejection due to invalid travel dates or a standard approval. However, even in the case of approval, there are still concerns due to the new guidelines that have been implemented.

So, is there a way I inform IRCC that my travel dates have changed now? I also have tickets for June 2025 now to show to them.
