How Much Time It Takes From Passport to Visa Stamped via VFS

[Manan.02.1996]

I submitted mine on 13th September it’s with ircc and under review since 15th September have got no reply back from them on 27th September, while people who submitted after me has their passport with them.
I went looking at other cases that I will have in 3-7 days and booked flights for 18th oct and now I am in limbo.

Stop using the word limbo for no reason. You are not in a limbo. It is very common for passports to take 2-3 weeks to get stamped. This is express entry part of the forum too, nothing to do with SOWP.

Okay calm down, new to this portal didn’t see its express entry one.
So keep your horses down too.

Saying that you are not in a limbo has nothing with me being calm or not.

Yeah I hope so, as there’s no way you can contact them, they’ll do it whenever they want to.

The time it takes to go from obtaining a passport to having a visa stamped can vary widely depending on several factors, including your nationality, the type of visa you are applying for, the country you are applying to, and the current processing times of the consulate or embassy. Additionally, external factors like the time of year, the volume of visa applications, and any special circumstances can also affect processing times.

I got PPR for spousal sponsorship from IRCC on 6th of October,2023. I submitted my passport and other required documents VFS, Dubai on 11th October, 2023 . Has my application been approved and will the visa be stamped at this stage? Also, what's the earliest expected return date of the passport? Thank you.
