Hey there,

I am on closed work permit and applied for my spousal open work permit and visitor visa for my kid on May, which seems like would take time. Is it okay to apply visitor visa for both as per the Sep 7th announcement?

Any lead? Appreciate your help, thanks in advance!
 
I applied today for my newborn son's visit visa for first time on IRCC portal. Me and my wife are PR. I'm in canada, my wife is in Pakistan. Any idea which visa office is handling visit visa applications for pakistanis?
It's Abu Dhabi. All the best. Also raise webforms every 2-3 weeks to remind them it's family reunification. They don't seem to care really but you can try.
 
Same!
I reapplied the second time through GC Key but now Im having second thoughts.. Maybe should have applied through the new portal.

I will still wait until 30 business days are over. Hopefully will get some response

I am in the other side of the second thought.. I applied first via GC key (DEC 2020) and 2nd via new portal on 13 sep 2021 but no update till now.. I am thinking i should have applied 2nd time via GC key :) I believe its all about luck and not about how we applied.

Yup I got UCI number and application summary (the standard emails ) right after applying and my biometrics were also linked on. Application's eligibility has still not started. UCI number remains the same for my old and new application

how much time did they take to link biometrics? looks like once you get the biometric validity letter you will get approval. did you receive that yet?

I never got any letter confirming my biometrics. My biometrics was completed on first application and they are reflecting in my application/s. When I applied 2nd time it instantly took UCI number and that also had my biometrics info.

Strange i got a new uci number after 3 days, at least it's way faster for you. And biometrics are still not linked for me.
