After being in "In Process" status, how long will it take for decision made?

My Visa Office is Beruit.

It really depend on the visa office... I am not too sure on the processing of you VO... It took around 5 months for us...but then again, they made a mistake so my husband’s could have had it earlier... I would say 2-4 months...depending on VO... try looking for a thread talking about your specific visa office as well cause that is more accurate than what we can inform you here...

Guys!!!! Especially MANILA VISA OFFICE. My husband got a call from embassy. He's going to Makati tomorrow to pick up his passport, they're gonna give him his visa today.
They were asking him about his passport, it was only received yesterday at their office as they required for it to be renewed. And they gave him an option to either pick up his passport tomorrow or they will send it via courier. He chose the first option.
God is sooooo good.
I hope you all get yours soon. Patience really paid off. And my never ending emails at the embassy surely helped a lot too.
I wasn't bugging them for the first few months after my husband first submitted his passport but after awhile I realized I really should get something from them. And so those emails really helped out ever since.
Soooooo happy.

Hi guys! This forum has been of great help ever since I started my application. I just want to share the good news. My ECAS turned "Decision made" at around 8pm(Calgary time). Around 12 noon it was still "In Process". Wishing more good news for those who are still waiting! God bless us all! ☺☺☺

Are any April 2015 applicants still waiting? :( It's almost been a year now.

My timeline has changed a bit.

2015:
April 13 - Did Medical Exam
April 15 - Application Received
April 23 - Applied for TRV (Rejected)
May 7 - Started processing in Mississauga
May 8 - Sent an email acknowledging receipt of application
May 22 - Decision Made for sponsor
May 28 - Case has been moved to Amman
July 2 - Case started processing
November 12 - Applied for TRV, Again. (Rejected)
December 24 - Additional Documents Requested
(Schedule A, Family book from Syria, Updated police checks x3, his degree AGAIN, all repeats of things we sent with our additional file)
2016
January 16 - Sent Additional Documents
March 25 - Sent an email after received notes seeing that the IO was STILL confused as to why my husband didnt enlist in military
March 28 - Additional Documents Requested, Again.
(More military information (sigh) and another updated Scheduale A + Supplmentary Travel form)
April 3rd - Sent Additional Documents, Again.


As you see, our medicals expire today. Im so scared they're gonna ask for a re-medical which will delay is further. I hope not since in our notes Medical says no surveillance required and that he passed everything.

I received my notes on March 22nd and saw that eligibility, criminality, and medical are passed, Security was in process.
Im going crazy, I just want to go home and start my life.

Hi Everyone. Haven't been on this thread in awhile - I see some good news - congratulations to all of you that have your passport requests, visas, etc.

For those of you waiting - it is hard but it will be worth it in the end.
