Hi everyone,

I wanted to start a thread for keeping track of when everyone applied and got their visit visa's - acceptance or rejection. Also would like to include passport processing times. Please do mention if you applied through the VAC or online. This is for Pakistani applicants only.

I've read a few stories on the forums, and now I'm concerned about just how long this process can take.

Based In: Lahore
Applied: Online
Application Date: 12th December, 2018
Biometrics: 12th December, 2018
Application Confirmation: 12th December, 2018
Current Status: Background Check In Progress
Passport Request Received: N/A
Passport Submitted: N/A
Passport Returned: N/A

I've made the format above so that everyone uses it. Really looking forward to everyone's responses - the official time on the processing time website says 36 days is how long they're taking for processing applications - but I've seen members get it in a week to some well over 2 months!
those who get in week are they successful applicant??

I got my passport request today - but the final decision still says in progress, likewise eligibility and background check. Given I've got the passport request, I can assume its been approved, right? @Bryanna Would love your input!

Visa approved.
Once Visa office receive passport and add conterfoil , the file would be closed.

technically, the final decision will be made after the visa office receives your passport.

Yes, you're almost there. Congrats :)

You’re supposed to fill it using adobe acrobat, not print and scan it.
