Let's not forget that the main cause of these delays is not the inefficiency of the Pakistani government, neither the inefficiency of workers at the Visa office in Islamabad. In fact, most of these people are probably the same ones who were dealing with cases in 2008 or earlier which were being processed in 6 months or so.sponsor of applicant said:my dear pakistan and pakistani system hating friend
how long did it take you to get all the documents for the application
i know the weight of my application was like 2 to 2.5 kilograms
all the documents where 100% authentic and true
95% of the documents were made in pakistan by pakistani government officials in their paid duty time paid by government of pakistan
and it took my wife and I about 2 moths to put together the application
the waiting time that coffee sipping pakistani official took was way less then 1 month for all the documents
i did not pay a single pakistani rupee to any official to speed up the process for the documents
ALL OF YOU HAVE BEEN THROUGH THIS PROCESS SO YOU MUST KNOW ALL THAT UNLESS MY PAKISTAN HATING FRIEND HERE HAD TO PAY BIG MONEY TO SOME PAKISTANI OFFICIAL TO GET HIS WIFE'S DOCUMENTS FROM PAKISTANI OFFICIALS
the part of pakistani government was done in less then a month
now when i sent my wife's application to MOST ACTIVE WELL TRAINED, EFFICIENT, WELL-ORGANIZED, DISCIPLINED, PROFICIENT, GIFTED, SKILLED, RESOURCEFUL AND CAPABLE ..... CHC-I
THEY ARE TAKING ALL THAT TIME
BUT NO NEED TO PANIC ......... because the time is well under the normal processing time
still i am not complaining there are systems everywhere ..... AND THE SYSTEMS WORK
so my friend it is totally ok if you hate someone but when you start pointing finger ....... try to be a bit fair
if you have a shred of decency please please tell the forum how long it took you to get all the supporting documents from pakistan
and we all know how long the process is taking right now
In my opinion, the real reason for the delays is the change in policies of the Canadian government. Allah knows best.
