Applied for visitor visa from USA on Sep 24, 2021
Request for Biometrics - Sep 25, 2021
Gave Biometrics - Oct 15, 2021
Biometrics Update - Oct 18, 2021
No update since then.

Anyone who applied around same time got any updates? I see average processing time is 40days for USA. Can I raise a web request now or have to wait until the end of average processing time?

No point in raising a request as focus is on Afghanistan processing. I assume you meet eligibility requirements to travel.

My wife submitted TRV from India on Oct 10th, gave biometrics at VFS on 18th Oct and updated in portal on the same day.

No update since then, BGC is In Progress and Eligibility check not started yet. Please let me know if there is any update on your application with dates.

Thank you !

I got the same email too. But its a technical glitch as told by many in this forum. Can you share the link to the new webform? Also what did you mention in the webform?

Not sure why you sent in a webform. IRCC has indicated they are still processing your application and you haven’t been waiting months for an answer. You will likely get an approval/refusal before you get a reply.

I really hope so that I receive a final decision before getting a reply honestly. I submitted a webform because I intend to travel in 3 weeks time and in case of an approval, I want to ensure there's enough time for me to send my passport to NY for stamping and it coming back to me, because there are quite a few holidays in this month too.
