My passport was received by CIC on Nov 24th. Status got updated on CIC portal as "Approved" on Nov 9th. Yesterday my return tracker got updated (Nov 16th).

The status changing to "approved" on CIC account doesn't mean that they have shipped the passport from their end. After approving, it will take some more days, in my case, a week, for them to ship the passport back.

In total, it took 3 weeks and 2 days for my passport to be stamped with visa and shiped it back.

HI All

Can everyone share their timeline so we all can have an idea how much time they normally take to process after submitting the passport.
