Did anybody submitted the passports to embassy or VFS between 20th to 30th May? Can you please share your status?
I submitted it on 24th May and there is not update as of now.
Dear Harry,

I had submitted my passport from Kuwait on 28 May 2018 through VFS Global.
The tracking ID says that the passport is being processed at CVO Abu Dhabi.
The processing duration of 4-5 weeks as mentioned in the forum is too disappointing to know.

Mine was received by VFS last June 13 and they submitted it last June 14, 2018. I hope i will received my passport with VISA as soon as possible because i need to exit before August 4, 2018.
Hello kabayan :) actually spoke with the agents there and said there was quite a backlog and cant promise anything. I need to travel by 9th of July and hoping for the PP to be released beforehand :(

Hi Harry
I had sent our passports by Aramex on 18th May and they received it on 22nd May. I had mailed them and get the reply stating
“Dear Applicant,
This is in response to your email enquiry.
Your passport(s) has been received at our office and currently on queue for visa printing. We are currently experiencing a huge increase of applications and the consequences are a longer processing times.”
So its been 30 days today. N still no update. Guess vacations may have delayed the processing.

When did you submit your passport? the VFS told me it will take 15 to 30 days.

The 15-30 days they are mentioning is a ballpark figure.
I had called them multiple times inquiring about the status of passport they repeat the same answer.
According to my understanding, during PR Visa stamping, VFS is jus a facilitator who courier the passport on behalf of you. They are not privy to any further information.

VFS Global is in no position to know whether the passport is stamped or not.

Dispatched to submit Canada Visa Office? Let us cross our finger that they will process the visa as soon as possible. Because my flight is on July 20.
