clarification please:


My current application is "in Process" and I understand that the average processing time is indicated in the website depending on the visa office. I know that the processing time is 14 months in our case. My question is the reckoning date for the 14 months. Is it from the time when the CIC says it received the application (which is Nov 2012), or the time the Manila visa office receives the application from CIC Mississauga (which is March 2013)?

Also, if the reckoning date is Nov. 2012, do we add the 28 days sponsorship approval for myself to the 14 months (i.e. 28 days + 14 months), or is this included in the 14 months?

Hello. I'm Jenn. I'm glad i've found this forum regarding visa application requests in canada. Now, I can lessen my worries in our application. So, I want to know how long are we going to wait, until we receive our visa under Family class. We've submitted our medic files and documents including our passport last September 2013 for visa application. The email indicates that we have to wait 90 days for the processing. Then, we've received another email that asks for another follow-up document last November. And still we are waiting. How long might be the processing including the day we've sent the follow up document.

Thank you. :-*

Hi, thank you for having an interest in my post. The application for visa was sent last year September and followed by some documents needed. I'm not sure about the type of Family Class Application. Sponsorship? What do you mean by VO and the Inland/outland? I'm sorry to ask these. For my sister in canada is the one whose fixing and arranging the application to the three of us. Me, my father (principal sponsor) and my mother.

Hello Jennelyn, VO= VISA Office.
Inland is application processed in Canada. Outland processed overseas.
Sounds like yours will be a Parental Sponsorship. Listed processing times on CIC Website is 42 months.
Your father is the one being sponsored? For permanent resident?

Good Luck, Step

Yes, my father is the principal sponsor for permanent resident. So for the processing times of 42 months that will start from the day we've submitted the first documents and files 3 years ago. How about the visa application how might long will it take? From the time we've submitted the required documents last september 2013.

42 months from the time CIC received application for 80% of applications.
Some sooner, some longer. Only god knows how much longer.
Immigration works at their own pace.VISA will be issued when process complete.
