Approved Online TRV Processing Times - 2016

[greatadi]

Hi Experts,
It would be of great help if you can post the recent processing times for online TRV approvals along with sequence/date of events. This will give a general idea for many people who have applied recently and waiting for approvals including me(I have applied for my wife's TRV on Feb 19 and still waiting)

Hi It's quite an annoying wait.. Here is a link that can help you estimate based on country:

http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/

I applied on Feb 17, 2016 thinking it would take 16 days. As it now, it will take at least 35 days according to that page. It certainly means that before my passport finally goes in and I get it back (if approved) it could be another week or two minimum.

I'll post the entire timeline here once I hear something.

Thanks papasi, Hope we all get approvals soon for the TRV's submitted.
By the way how did you calculate as 35 days?? it is saying 17/18 days from past 2 months - For Paper applications...

Hello! I am a Filipino citizen who is applying for a TRV (visitor visa) together with my mom and my brother. My mother is the main applicant. If you asked why my father isn't coming with us, he didn't want to go for he couldn't leave our family business.

We plan to go to Quebec, Canada, on April 15, 2016 till May 15, 2016 for we are visiting some of our relatives (my mother's sister and her family) , for we haven't seen them in years and we plan on travelling there for it seems like a nice place full of adventures. We applied for this last Feb 10, 2016. We have been receiving emails from CIC that there are new updates in our application status, but when we look at our MyCIC acc, there is none. We are still waiting till now, March 16, 2016 for the final decision CIC has made, and we are getting worried and we couldn't think right for they say that the normal processing time is 12 days, its been more than one month now and still no decision. When do you think we'll receive our application? Because the longer it takes to get the final decision the nearer we need to leave. We're leaving on the 2nd week of April and still none PLEASE HELP
