Dear LVO buddies,
I think we are mixing two things here. We were discussing the delay in processing which according to me, is caused by submitting less than perfect application while few other fellows believe due to nationality. Awai Ali discussed the factor i.e. high IELTS band, which can enhance the possibility of a bit fast processing but it has nothing to do with if the submitted application is perfect or not. An applicant with high IELTS band can also submit a bit weak application such as non-compliant supporting documents, improper certified true copies & translations etc.
I believe that the first step is to submit a perfect application, exactly in the way or even better CIC expects for. Once this is done, then other factors may boost the chances of fast processing. These factors may include education from well reputed and good ranked university, high IELTS band, work experience with well known multinational organizations, experience in multicultural environment, ability of spouse to get settled professionally incl. his/her education, IELTS result, work experience etc. and ability of relative in Canada to help principal applicant to get settled easily etc. I consider these factors important for the reason that along with basic parameters & criteria, Visa Officer/CIC also assesses that what is the ability of PR applicant to get settled in Canada and add to the economic growth of Canada.
