Hello guys!!


From 12th april onwards, IRCC has changed the "automatic deadline extension" rule.

its saying that the IRCC wont request passports if the local VACs are closed.

Anyone getting affected by other issues, will need to manually raise the issue with the IRCC and get another 30 days extension for submissions (including passports).

IRCC is asking to raise an webform and get the extension for these issues.

Does it mean that Indian applicants(who r affected due to closed VAC) need not worry about passport submissions now as 30 days deadline is not valid for them?

Hello guys!!


From 12th april onwards, IRCC has changed the "automatic deadline extension" rule.

Now, anyone getting affected by covid related lockdowns, will need to manually raise the issue with the IRCC and get another 30 days extension for submissions (including passports).

IRCC is asking to raise an webform and get the extension.

Guys help me on how to apply for this extension.

Hi, even I’m in the same situation. But I’ve not yet raised the webform. The links for webform is not working. What shall we do now? :/

Link is not working for anyone since many days as they have suspended the 2 way courier service.

Hello everyone,

Has anyone been affected by the above change by IRCC? My 90 day period for biometric has expired by the time I knew about this change in the process. I have raised a request for an extension after 90 days. Will this be a problem?
