Hello,

I have applied GTS Visa Category A online from Singapore on April 30th,2020 with approved LMIA, upfront medical examination, upfront biometrics , and police certificates.
GTS visa processing is advertised to be 2-weeks fast processing, however I still haven't received my visa approval. In my IRCC account, it says it is processing..My job starting date is June 22nd,2020.

I have sent Webform 9 days ago to receive an update. Also, no reply so far on my Webform.

Anyone else is in similar situation? Anyone has received GTS visa approval or update recently?
Please share your own experience with GTS visa processing during COVID-19..

Thanks a lot.
 
My wife's visa was applied on 10 March under GSS, ICT. She already had valid biometrics and got upfront medical, there has been no update since, we have been waiting now for 11 weeks (it was 2 weeks processing when her lawyers applied)
 
does it say its processing on your account?
in my case, it says it is processing ,and there is no need for additional documents.
 
also, in your employment offer, when is your anticipated starting date? what date did you put as starting date when you applied gts visa?

It was 15 th april, they have extended it to June now

Did you inform IRCC on the extension of your start date? My starting date is June 22, and still awaiting for GTS visa.. Are we obliged to inform IRCC?

The emploer does that through the employer portal. Not something we have to do.
 
I am the one who applied for GTS, not the employer. Should I remind the employer about informing IRCC? Because the employer got LMIA and send it back to me along with job offer letter etc. Then I applied GTS myself..

I believe so. In my case the employer has hired a lawyer who is dealing with everything.
 
Any update from you guys? I have completed my application on August 19th and have been waiting for approval.
