Dear All,
I applied TRV on 9th May, 2014 and still not get my passport back from embassy.
I also mentioned in my covering letter that i am going to USA in the first week of August to attend an exhibition.
Now i need my passport till 30th July to travel to USA. I sent an email to embassy couple of weeks ago and they said my application is under process and review.
I need your advice what i should do know? I have three option as follow.
1- Send an email to embassy to expedite my case as i need to travel to USA.
2- Send my passport back for two weeks and continue your process i will send back to you after my trip to USA.
3- I can also withdrawn my application to get my passport back?

Please advice what i should do know i wish to travel to USA on 03rd August 2014.

Application files: 08-05-2014
Almost 67 days gone.

Hi everyone,

I want to understand the timeline - someone with experience please correct below:

1- Online application
2- Biometrics due next day (exact time - request will be via e-mail)
3- Medical due in one week (average time - request will be via e-mail)
4- Passport asked within 60 days (average time - request will be via e-mail)

Is there anything in details that I missed or did I get the time frames wrong or the method of request deliveries? The reason I want this is because my mom leaves far from Islamabad and she has to fly every-time they request something. So, I want to plan her trips properly.

Thanks,

I would say include evidence addressing all the issues mentioned here in notes and write a cover letter pointing each of them out along with supporting evidence.

Show proof of your business as well as that it can be taken care of in your absence. Also if you intend to visit real brother provide his details, preferably an invite from him as well showing his willing to attend you, even if you are bearing the expense of the trip yourself.

VO's make mistakes as well and i know it is frustrating. But your best bet is to reapply fixing all the issues. As much as i know, there is no provision to complain for a visit visa application.

Keep in mind that the next time a new visa officer will see the notes and the explanation and documents that you would provide.

Salam fkl and other senior members,

Our spousal application is being processed in London UK. And at the same time my spouse is here on a visit visa from Pakistan.

Does anyone know what the PPR process is from London if the spouse is already here in Canada on a visit visa? Upon receiving the passport request, would it be possible to send the passport to London directly from here in Canada and have the PR visa stamped on it?

Any suggestion or advice would be greatly appreciated!
