I understand from the comments that it takes up to 5 or even 6 weeks but does anyone know on what basis do visas get stamped? Is it first come first serve? Also, does it matter if you've lived there before and have had a Canadian visa issued in the past? I mean would that speed up the process, if anyone's aware? or is that redundant
PS: thank you to those who helped me with my previous queries. I was away for nearly 10 days and didn't get a chance to log on to read any of the messages or say thank you. So, Thank you.

I submitted my passport to Dubai VFS on 06/09/2015. Passports reached the Abudhabi office on 7th September. I am currently on day 30 since my submission to VFS. Anxiously waiting :'(
