Hi. I received the “Ready for Visa” email in the first week of August asking for my spouse and my passports, photographs and a filled up personal details form known as Annex B.

The documents were received by the Canadian High Commission in Singapore on 07 August 2017. It’s been over 30 days and I have not heard from them yet. I have a business trip planned in the coming weeks and it’s really important for me. They said not to make any travel plan for the next 30 days but they are taking more time now. I have also emailed CIC using the web form and the High Commission in Singapore but have not got any response. Any idea on what happens when they take this long? Is there possible anything else I can do? I am really worried now.

Thanks.

My wife got interview letter today through mail & they sent just photos back which is really weird because they don't usually return photographs. Anyone received letter like this?
Please advise. Not sure what was lacking because we did provide everything to prove that relationship is genuine.

With regards to Federal Skilled Worker (FSW)

My passport has been sent to Singapore visa section and it has been 31 days, but I didnot get any response yet. Does the embassy usually call for interviews once passport has been sent for visa? Can anyone please help me out here. Thanks!

Have you try calling them? I saw some other forum mentioned we can call them if it has already passed the timeline given.

Thank you for your message. Yes I called them but no point. The visa officer took my UI number but cannot tell me anything over phone. She told me to use the online inquiry applicantion to write me query. Not only have I done that, but I also emailed them separately. Seems like I just have to wait now I don't know why they wrote processing time is 30 days when they take so much longer.

Hello everyone, I'm a July 2016 application. My application has passed the standard time of my country. They haven't started background check yet, however, they requested my background check in March. Can you suggest me what to do now? I'm from Vietnam and it says 13 months for standard processing time; and does anyone from July 2016 applications still waiting like me?

This is pretty odd, sorry to hear about your situation. My spouse and I applied in April 2017 and we will collect our passports today as a decision has been made I think you should contact the visa officer at the embassy.

one month ago, They came to my home in Vietnam for a surprise interview, no news until now. They had interviewed me back in the beginning of December and requested for our house ownership in Canada (we'd lived there before I had to leave Canada for my interview, and couldn't come back). After we submitted letter from lawyer for home ownership, medical changed to in progress; and they requested for my household booklet in Vietnam and Criminal check in Vietnam(even I'd never lived in Vietnam for more than 6 months since I turned 18). We submitted everything they asked in March. No news until they came to my home in Vietnam for a surprise visit in early August. i actually don't see any redflags in my application. What they were talking was I couldn't remember my wedding total cost and we didn't apply for PR right after we got marriage certificate. And they didn't say if the interviews has been passed or failed

Hi guys . Can you help me, what should I do? I already received a letter from CIC that the Singapore
Office already had the application. but that was almost a month ago
I am just wondering if there is a problem in the application because
I havent received any message since then. SUpposedly i should have receive the AOR2 or Request for documents for my
medical and police certificate. some of the applications takes days or week only.

After they transferred our file to Singapore, we didn't receive the medical request for 6 months. There is nothing to be concerned with, only having waited 1 month. Singapore seems to wait 4 - 6 months before requesting medical/police certificate for those that applied first few months of 2017.

Please add your information here! And you can also look at the timing of other Singapore applications and compare it to your timeline to help you see the trends.

Wow!! That is so fast!!! Only 5 months until DM. There was another Singapore application several weeks ago that was also 5 months! There is hope for the rest of us! What country are you from? Could you please add your information to the spreadsheet, so that it helps other Singapore application see the trends in processing times? https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dJsaLvHra4173xPfRwZbXo73hsxoXaLSJ5-tcm7qnJI/edit#gid=360667438 Thanks!!
