Hi there to Filipinos living in Canada.
I would like to sponsor my parents to Saskatchewan. I read on the Citizen and Immigration Canada website that the time it will take to process the application is 23 months. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/canada/process-in.asp#sponsorship
But on the website of the Canadian Embassy in Manila, the processing time is 8 to 12 months. http://geo.international.gc.ca/asia/manila/visas/servstan-en.asp
Does this mean the application will be process in Canada for 23 months before it will be sent to the Canada Visa office in Manila, then it will take another 8 to 12 months in Manila before my parents will get their visas? For a total of 35 months?
