Dear nSukan,nsukan said:Dear Thommo,
Looking at your medicals completion, I am kind of very positive that you will get it in few days or at maximum, by Tuesday next week. Hope you have requested to return pp only after stamping with CHC, since you have waited this long and its too close.

We can't tell visa office to expedite issuing of visa. They invariably reply that they can issue visa only after completing all checks. And they have no control on duration of completing security checks, etc, as they are carried out by other agencies. I have requested them to return my passport as i need it. Why put present job in peril? Isn't a bird in hand worth two in the bush? Even if they return my passport unstamped, they won't take months for issuing visas next time around. Yes, it may delay my case. But that is not going to make any difference as i don't intend to land in Canada during peak winters.
Thanks for your concern,
Thommo
