Same. People are travelling less so hopefully that means faster processing of prtd applications. I applied for myself and my 2 daughters. We meet the RO by a margin (had only been out of Canada for 30 days in 2018). My planned return was this Monday but I guess not anymore. Usually it takes 8 months or more for those with H&C but I have some normal cases in 2018 taking that long. Lets see
PR CARD EXPIRED IN PAKISTAN AND PRTD
- Thread starter Sam91
- Start date
Let's see. Less people traveling but I don't know how the situation in Afghanistan will impact all of this.
Did you mean Residency Obligation? Yes
I am going to send an email to IRCC again with my application and supporting documents.
IRCC will not do anything. You have to apply through the vfs in your city or online if its not open. Then it gets sent to the high comission in Islamabad, if it gets processed there (which I believe is very veryyyyyy rare) then it should take about 4-5 weeks. If it sent to abu dhabi from there then it can take upto 2-3 months
You have only been waiting around 2 weeks. This is a pretty common waiting period and resources may also have been reallocated to deal with emergency applications in Afghanistan. Would wait for another week or two and email if you haven’t heard anything by then.
Hi guys I had put in an enquiry to the abdbi immigration via their webform yesterday and this is the reply I got
“This is in response to your email enquiry.
You shall receive your passport request letter shortly.
We trust that this information will be of assistance”
Does this mean they have reviewed my application and approved it? And it is no more in queue? Also how do people receive the letter usually, through mail or email?

Unfortunately, I won't be able to be of any assistance to you for your question but it does sound like your application is close to completion.
How did you know your application was sent to Abu Dhabi? I applied last week and the status update I have received is that it was received by IRCC. It doesn't tell if it's Islamabad or Abu Dhabi. I applied in Lahore so the application was first sent to VFS Islamabad.
You should email the high comission at Islamabad and they will let you know where it is. This is the email where I sent my email and got my response from: ISBADIMMIGRATION@international.gc.ca
Thank you! I will definitely wait for at least a month before I start sending in queries.
Try mailing vfs Afghanistan (if that's not possible then I suppose vfs Pakistan) first and ask them what steps you can follow. Also if you are a PR who meets RO then try contacting the Canadian embassy or IRCC or your MP in Canada and explain them your situation, since you are stuck in Afghanistan your case could be a priority case due to the current affairs.
