Any visa approval will depend on your + your parents' circumstances, your/their financial situation, etc

Hi,
My GF arrived in the US last Sep. and started a graduate program.
She appled on 17th Nov. online for a visitor visa (in order to visit me in Vancouver).
She received an email asking her
- The enclosed Supplementary Information Request for Students form
- CV/Resume

By experience, anybody know how long it takes to get a final decision?
How long it takes them to send back the passport? She applied to the VAC in NewYork.

Thanks!

Guys, I applied for my brother a visitor VISA from Lebanon on Nov 09th.

Until Dec 03, 11:21:34 PM EST :) no update under CIC Account. They did not even say they received his bio-metrics (did them the 10th) . Should I be worried ? :'(

Hi,

I sent out my passport to VAC - Los Angeles on Wednesday 7th and according to my USPS tracking it arrived on Friday 9th

The thing is I am flying out to Vancouver to visit my cousin on Tuesday 20th
Will I get my passport back before that? I am genuinely worried.

Thanks!

Hi,

I have the same situation. Does CIC withdrawed your application and asked you to submit a new application? Or you can update the form using web form.

Thanks
