Hi everyone! It’s been such a journey! Last /Summary of updates

ITA - March 29
AOR - May 24
BIL - June 14
Med passed - June 14 (I did upfront meds)
Biometrics linked - June 20
RFV - July 10
COPR on tracker - July 12
Submitted docs to VFS - July 12
Counterfoil - July 19

I used a return DHL service for my submission. It made collection and delivery to my house easier than having to go collect it myself from the VFS office.

I wish everyone else waiting the very best and God’s speed!

Congratulations! This was really fast.

Some of us still have our files at RROC VO, taking forever waiting to be finalized.

Goodluck with the Canadian dream!

Hi!
I am also applying from Brazil. FSW Outland. Your VFS Office is in São Paulo?

Could you please let me know how long will it take to receive your passport back with the visa? My AOR was in April 15th and I haven't received the COPR yet, but I have a 20 days trip planned in September and I am affraid they will request my passport close to my trip date.

Thank you in advance!

Oh! I didn't know that! Always thought we had to take the passaport to the closest VFS.

Anyways, if you feel comfortable to share how long it will take to get your passport back it would be very helpfull. thanks

Congrats to all who've been approved! My FSW-O application hasn't moved forward since biometrics were given on 2 June. In the tracker, my background has been in progress since then and eligibility is still not started. My AOR is 8 May and my PVO is Montreal. Anything to worry about at this point or is this just luck of the draw? I'm not obsessing over it yet, just checking in to see if this is expected. I requested GCMS notes on 8 July but haven't heard back on those yet. Thanks :)

No need to worry if your VO is Montreal . Only God can save you now as Montreal VO is only a building without a presence of any human being :D . They will only pick your file if they don`t have any other task to do ... FYI , My VO is also Montreal :p

Nothing to worry about. Expect your application to be processed in 6 months(SLA) - that way if you get processed faster it will be a good surprise, if they took time you won't be hurt. Also, VO assignment isn't permanent and changes too.
