Congratulations! From India, the average processing time keeps increasing every other, so when I applied it was 30 days, now its 45 days. I believe its due to reduction of staff in Canadian Embassy in India due to the diplomatic row. I also gave them all documents, bank balances (mine and my...

I applied e-visa yesterday evening. Got approved today at 9:30am. 1 year validity.

how long is e-visa processing time? anyone applied today?

Has anyone submitted Entry Visa application from Walk-in Montreal-BLS? or Ottawa Jurisdiction? Would like to know the timeline for it. Thanks!

Does anyone know how long does it take from Embassy website's "Printed" status to Purolator home delivery? I have visa appointment on 15th Montreal BLS. Wondering if thats enough time to receive SC.

When I called and asked, they said it CANNOT be done. SC is mandatory for OCI applications.

Status changed to Printed today. Will update when I receive it from Purolator.
