“You’ll hear from us within 14 to 30 business days”

Just a random thought: IRCC guys could have simply written “you’ll hear from us within 30 days”. So thinking why did they mention “14 to 30”, I am beginning to guess portal might take a minimum of 14 and maximum of 30 business days. Again, my random guess and this might not be correct. Only the person who wrote it and the person who approved it might know.

My exact thought. Let's see what happens after 14 business days. BTW, I think those who had applied before September 7 are being prioritized because I haven't seen any fresh applications being approved

No it’s not there in gckey .. it’s only available in IRCC portal ..
I wrote that they are reuniting with immediate family member in invitation letter and letter of explanation ..
I chose gckey because I see most of them got approval Using gckey ..

What happened to your first application sir if I may ask you, do you still see it as active or does that cancelled because you applied a new one

I can see the new application as well as old application .. it’s not cancelled … I had this type of experience 3 years before for my work permit .. I submitted two applications .. IRCC kept two applications active and then they approved old application and automatically withdrawn the other application ..

Congrats!!

I applied in the following order:

First application via gc key in Dec 2020
Biometrics done on 29 july 2021
2nd application via New portal 13th Sept 2021

Waiting for eligibility check and PPR. Till now no update

*Reason to file a visa: got married in May 2021 and want to visit my wife since we cant file spousal sponsorship due to 5 yr ban rule in place for 2nd marriage. I attached the old application details, a 20k CAD Bank statement, my marriage certificate & my spouse's PR card.

I dont know what's their criteria to pick up applications. I was under the impression that its day/date wise but I see people from 11th got it and now I see yours from 15th Sep. but somehow mine got lost or missed??? Someone please tell me if they know the process how they are picking applications.

Please let me know if I missed to attach anything? I am anxiously waiting for PPR since my wife's bday is near (in oct) and I mentioned in the new application that I am planning to travel on 1st oct.

Hello dear
I know it's really hard when we come across to these kind of situations. But my case is little different. I'm 8 months pregnant living alone in Canada. We applied visitor visa with doctor's note for care. And on other side, my husband's PR file is in process which is almost 80% completed. I think that's the reason of positive outcome.
But never know , maybe you will get it soon too. Stay positive.

So if I dont have a condition like pregnancy my chances are weak??? in our case we are not able to submit spousal PR due to 5 yr ban clause so I am left with no choice but to file a TRV to atleast spend some time with my wife.. I just hope that I get it..

Unless im mistaken if you have been given a 5 year ban that means you cannot enter canada. Visitor visa or not you wont be able to get in... Overturning the ban is the only option but would be impossible if valid and would cost a bunch of money.
