Thank you for your email. If you are enquiring about the status of your visa application or wish to withdraw your application, please use the online IRCC Webform, ensure to add your application number and provide the email address listed on your MyCIC account.
IRCC’s processing times tell you how long it took us to process most complete applications in the past. It starts the day we receive your complete application and ends when we make a decision. It may vary depending on the number of applications we receive and how complex they are to process.
The processing times found online are an estimate only, and are not a guarantee. Every application is handled on a case-by-case basis, and there’s no one simple explanation for how long each one will take to process. Applications can be further delayed if they are not complete when submitted.
These processing times estimates may not reflect new or emerging global migration trends, operational challenges faced by the department or recent changes to departmental priorities—all of which will affect processing times.
We understand that longer than expected processing times can be stressful and apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. We are doing our best to respond to volumes of applications that are much higher than normal and we are working on new measures to address these issues. We appreciate your understanding and patience
If you have completed your biometrics and medicals as required, please be patient and routinely check your online account for updates.
Once your application is finalized, IRCC will send correspondence to you through your IRCC secure account and/or email. Until then, please continue to verify the status of your application through your IRCC secure account to find out if any additional information has been requested.
