This process is ridiculous. Canada needs to work on their process because this is not right. People have been waiting for years even after approval. How pathetic. My sister in law applied for norway visa. Got it in 6.months and passport received 3 daya after her approval. No medical bs.
Why cant canada be this quick? I hate our sponsorship system
I know it’s hard, and while Canada has a lot they can improve on, it isn’t in many ways realistic to compare other countries to each other. While there are definitely cases in Canada that take two years (or more) there are also cases that take three months, just as I doubt every case in Norway is six months. It’s so case by case dependant.
Canada can be strict, but there are others that are, as well. I remember lots of controversy with people having a hard time in New Zealand, even being refused and delayed for being overweight. (They seem to consider that a strain on the health care system, according to my NZ spouse) and one poor guy from NZ I know is still fighting the system trying to get his American wife who has kidney problems over there.
I’m sure every country has its own stories, even though I know that’s not much of a comfort.
Hopefully all the tests go well and it’ll be clear sailing from there to give you some hope again!
