They won't even admit that its their failure to keep up with the applications and processing times that's causing the delay.

Sure, here's their reply:

No further action is required on your part at this time. One or more of the following could delay the processing of your application:

your application is not complete;
you need a medical exam;
you need a background or security check;
you have a criminal record;
you need an interview;
we need to verify your documents; or
other external factors beyond our control.

They are working on Nov. 11th. I still got no updates. Soooo worried.

When you say " they are working on Nov. 11th case", then what are your sources to validate that. I have seen ppl who applied later than date and got the result days back.

I'm not a lucky person. I applied TRV on Nov. 8th online from US. The online application from US is processed in Canada. I checked the processing time there, it says Nov. 11th.
 
Yes you were correct. I have realized that online application are processed from Ottawa office and as of Dec. 27th they were looking at applications as of Nov.11th 2013.
I am however confused as when i went in person to Canadian Embassy in Los Angeles on 27th Nov. 2013, i was told to do it online as they had people who applied online as latest as 11th of the same month and they are sending the approval. So it seems there is huge confusion among the Consulates as who has the correct information.

I applied online for Visitor Visa on Nov 15th 2013 from USA (I'm an Indian origin person working at US).
The website shows 'updated last on Nov 30th'.
But still haven't got the approval/email notification...more than 50 days! :(>:( :o

No replies to the multiple enquiries sent to CPP Ottawa email address.

Is there any CIC contact number where someone can provide any info?
 
@AKumar1 - "I have realized that online application are processed from Ottawa office and as of Dec. 27th they were looking at applications as of Nov.11th 2013."

How did you get the info about Nov-11 date?
Is there any site where we can look up to?
Or did you get any email?

This forum doesnt allow to post links. But check here:

Just out of curiosity, did you apply alone or was it a combined application for more than one person?
I too applied online from US on November 9th, and haven't heard yet! They should at least update their processing time so people can plan ahead. Their website says the current processing time is 38 days but they are processing November 11 applications! How does that make sense?
