I got into a situation here and will be grateful if anybody can help me with the information!
I have valid work permit for almost 2 years from now. But my visa is going to expire in this July. So I applied for TRV stamping in April 1st week from IRCC online while staying in Canada and that is still pending for any confirmation to send my passport. Meanwhile, due to some medical emergency I had to travel to India at the end of April and just after one day of my travel, the travel ban was imposed on Indian flights and that ban is still continuing as we know. As a result I cannot go back to Canada before my visa expiry in July.
I already have submitted the webform to expedite the processing as I need to go back soon to save my job there. So if IRCC responses with a confirmation and ask for the passport to send, then what would be the next step that I can take from India.
Is it possible to stamp visa from India(my nearest VFS office is in Kolkata which is not operational for visa stamping right now) considering that I applied TRV stamping from inside Canada?
If it is possible, then what are documents I need to provide and how can I send those document?
Do I need any special approval from anybody to stamp it from India or do I need to intimate IRCC that I need to stamp it from India?
I have already paid the visa stamping fees of CAD 100 when applied for TRV. Do I need to pay any fees to VFS again in case I need to do stamping through VFS?
Also please note that I don't have done biometric as I applied from inside Canada. So biometric is exempted as of now. But if I get the approval from IRCC without biometric as per current rule, will be required again if I approach to VFS for stamping?
Any lead will be highly appreciated!!
