ICT Work Permit (GSS) India Timelines

[wpkc]

Guys My application details for your reference:

Application: ICT GSS LMIA exempt - India
Application submitted: Aug 5
Medicals: Upfront with application.
Biometrics: Requested around Aug 14-16 (Submitted same day since I had my biometrics valid from prev application)
Dependents Included: Spouse -OWP, 2 Kids
PPR: Aug 31st (for all)
Passport picked up: Sep 3rd
Stamped Passport received: Sep 10th

All the best for the folks waiting!

I have the message saying, "The envelope for the decision on the results of your visa that has been processed has been received at the Canadian Visa Application Center at New Delhi OC, on the date. We will then send this to the Canadian Visa Application Center New Delhi OC. Please note that this is an automated email"
What does this exactly mean, did VFS open the envelope and verified all required documents present and then is it sent to CVAC? or what else

I have applied for Canada ICT GSS LMIA Exempt Work Permit.

Date of Application : 15th July 2021
Medical: Upfront 14th July 2021
Biometric: 26th August 2021
Centre: VFS, Pune. India
Job NOC Code: 2173 ( Software Developer)

My application is still not updated after biometric completed. I can see people getting PPR who applied later than me. Is the processing random?

Once you receive PPR, you will need to submit courier service form. You will get the payment link. Pay the fees and your passport will be picked up within 1-2 days of payment

Is this a single applicant ?

Is this a single applicant ?

Whoever I heard were with dependents. However, I don't think it has to do anything with single or multiple applicants

Hope I hear soon from them.

Hi @sandy89
My company has applied for my ICT from India . I have already got my biometrics done for my PR FSW application earlier this year.
My question is how did you share your biometric for ICT application to you company . Did you share the PR biometric receipt with your company ?
Or you had to go to VFS again for formalities ?

It means a decision is made, 99.9% it means your passports are stamped with a visa and is in transit

Was your Premium lounge or normal service?

Normal

Normal

Great! It seems your passport stamping was processed much faster as compared to other normal applications. Because many other normal applications are taking around 14 to 20 days to get passports back
