Yes, they gave me the passport when I walked into the consulate in LA. But BEWARE and do not expect this happen every time. LA policy is that if you walk in and submit your documents, they will give your passport back the next daY. If you submit on Thursday or Friday, they will give your...

I wanted to give a quick update on my status. I did not get my visa in the desired time frame (that is, before Aug 9th). I started sending out emails from Aug 1st to the consulate. I did not receive any responses until Aug 7th. They asked for the applicants name and DOB and after that I received...

Leico, Thanks for sharing your experience. I have sent several emails to the consulate (over 10) and only yesterday, I received a response asking for the applicants full name and DOB (as if I have not provided that in any my email communications). I also opened an enquiry at thier website 3...

When did you get the application number in email? Does that mean they touched your application and that it will be processed soon? I received an email asking for applicants full name and DOB but there was no application number in it.

No updates on my visa. It looks like the only way is to go in person and ask them to process the visa. They are completely ignoring emails. I even attached travel documents in my visa application and they dont bother about checking anything. Unfortunately I am not in a position to travel to LA...

From what I noticed, you should be able to do that. Just let them know the passport has been submitted and you are waiting for the visa. Most cases, they will give the passport the same day. Go there in the morning and they should give the passport in the afternoon, unless they find something...

I do not have any of these to check the status of my TRV. How do i get this. I checked the application I submitted (pdf), there is a VALIDATE button on top, and it has some bar codes generated at the end. I do not see any application number here. Is there any other way to expedite the process...

Good to hear that they actually respond to emails. Did you send only one email or several emails? The visa was approved on August 1st so you are still waiting for the passport, is that correct? Not sure what i should do as the travel is on Aug 9th. If I or one of my friends stop by at the...

Not sure, but please let us know what you find out. I may have to do the same thing at the LA consulate. This is just terrible. Did you get a response to your email? You are very lucky in that regard as I have not received any response to any of my emails. We have travel arrangements made for...

So what are our options? Just wait patiently, cancel the trip, lose the money on airline and hotel reservations? I went ahead and booked the tickets because the processing time indicated 14 days. wOULD it help if I walk in? Has anyone done this at all? Thanks

I have applied for a TRV visa from LA consulate on July 3rd and I have not heard back from them yet (yes, they wouldnt respond to emails, fax etc). I have travel arrangements made to Canada on Aug 9th. How long is the processing taking? Should I walk into the consulate and find the status? Has...

I mailed my application with passport and all necessary documents on July 3rd and it was delivered to LA office on July 5th. I have travel planned for Canada for Aug 9th and so far I have not received any update from the LA office. I sent a couple of emails and also faxes them enquiring the...
