Passport Submission at Canadian Embassy Abu Dhabi

[Shijukabby]

Congratulations Shijukabby. Now it seems like average is between 30-40 days.

Thank you so much. Yes the wait time is usually longer than expected. And the process is very slow in abudhabi office...

As per the PPR instructions file they asked to contact CIC if it is takes more than 4 weeks. Likewise I got in touch with CIC and surprisingly they asked me to contact Abu Dhabi instead for the PP follow up.

There is no point in calling the abudhabi office as they don't answer our calls. The best thing is to forget the passport and do our work as they will surely come back within few weeks..

I am seeing messages where pp was submitted on 16th July, received back by 27th July....and here passports submitted on 5th July...still no response. Good you can visit personally...are you in the UAE? All the best to you. I cannot even visit since I am staying in Qatar.

yes its not application processing anymore which can be different for different applicants, it is just mere visa stamping which should be done in orderly manner but when u see people receiving back passports who submitted weeks after u its annoying. yes i am in uae and will definately visit them and will raise my concern as well.

Guys,

We need patience here, just bec we travel to the embassy they won't give the status or our passports soon. I understand without knowing the status it horrible, but min 40 days is required, I submitted it on the 28th June and got it back on the 3 August, 37 days in total.
Mean while I called vfs 50 times and also the embassy 100 times.
Nothing helped... As long as u know ur passports are with the embassy nothing to worry..
So relax people

Guys.... Somebody wake them up and I am ready to offer them hot cappuccino to stay awake. If this is the case then they should not really mention 10-14 working working days in the information file. There is an only oneoption for us guys !!! is just to WAIT WAIT WAIT ...

Guys!

I'm glad to receive the passport submission request from London Visa Office, in the instructions they've mentioned either i can submit the passports in person to Abu Dhabi Office or else i can send the passports through Aramex courier with return airway bill. The whole process will going to take around 4 weeks.

Well, I opted to visit embassy Monday morning, and will submit the passports in person. And I hope to get back stamped passports at the earliest from the embassy.

Cheers!
