This thread is about people applying for visitor visas in the new portal after September 2021. Find more threads under Express Entry or ask questions there.

When someone reapplies for TRV using the new IRCC portal, do they withdraw their application under the gckey or is it done automatically?

As I saw on other posts on FB groups, it will be done automatically when IRCC starts to work on the new file..

My mom's application through GC Key in July 2021 still has no movement, wasn't automatically withdrawn.

She reapplied via IRCC new portal in January 31, 2022 and got approved in March 2022.

She has not touched her old application in GC Key. Anyone here who had to manually withdraw an old application and asked for a refund? Kindly share your experience please. Thank you.
