Sister and her Son's Visitor Visa - No Major Progress Since Mar 22nd March 2017

[ajay95]

Applied for my sister and her son's tourist visa to Canada; I am a Canadian citizen.

21st March 2017 - Your processed passport has been forwarded to the Canada Visa Office, NEW DELHI
22nd March 2017 - Visa application, tracking ID No.XXX is being processed at the Canada Visa Office, NEW DELHI

After that no updates till now

It's not unusual. It's quite possible for a visitor visa to take a few months to process. Unfortunately there's really nothing you can do but wait and hope for the best. Good luck and hope you get an approval.

Oh ok; I heard if it crosses timeline of 19-20 days chances are more for rejection; is it true ?

I have booked tickets for them in early June; I hope by that time decision is taken !

Bryanna,

Is above timeline OK or there are chances of rejection as it's delayed by a day than usual timeline of 19-20 days

Hi Ajay,

The amount of time it takes to process an application does not indicate whether it will be approved/refused. Both approvals and refusals are possible within a few days or even after a few months of processing.

Perhaps processing is currently taking longer due to a high volume of applications received by NDVO.

You can check for more updates by linking their paper apps to their online accounts (like you've asked in another thread). After you link it, you will be contacted only through MyCIC.

You can send CSEs if you don't hear from IRCC by Week 1 of May. They will most probably get decisions before that


Cheers

How can I send CSEs ?
