Hello Guys,
I have a question. I had applied for Global Talent Stream Visa for Canada 3 Months ago. We all know that the processing time for GTS is 2 weeks but now it's 3 months after biometric I am still awaiting a response from Embassy. Is anyone have an idea that how much it will take to process my visa or due to Covid the processing time will also increasing?

------------------My timeline--------------------
Application submitted online: August 04, 2020
Biometrics Letter: August 06, 2020
Completed Biometrics: August 10, 2020

Can anyone tell me how much time it will take?

There is a whatapp group, based on the talks there, currently there is no 2-week processing for GTS anywhere because of COVID-19. A couple of months processing is the most lucky case, it is common to take 3~4 months, even 1 year for extreme case.

Hi All,
I got the approval letter, but not the hard copy in the mail yet. Do you know how long it will take to arrive? I may need to travel in a month or so, but the visa processing time takes 50days. So I want to apply ASAP.
Can I apply for a visitor visa with uploading the Work permit extension approval letter? Or I have to wait the hard copy and then apply for the visa?

O man ..I am exactly in same position . Applied bowp on oct 6. My work permit expiring end of Jan 2021 and I am flying back home 2nd week of jan 2021...so all in all have 3 months 1 week from date of application. ( oct 6)

I called ircc yesterday and asked if I can apply for trv in advance before bowp approval she said yes you can. I asked her to email me the link. But honestly that was something else .end of story we can't.

Another question I have is if I apply for trv after bowp approval from my backhome what processing time will apply?? 51 days as for in Canada or 340days as for my country, Pakistan?

True, one must be really careful. While on implied status, you should not take chances.

If you have received the hard copy so that means its already approved online. You might not aware because you've applied through immigration consultant. If you really want to check then you can ask your consultant for the same or get an online account credential from them.

hi gaurav ,
Yes i know that i didnt get update becayse it was not applied from my gc account.

However i have some queries

1.do i need to get my passport stamped or any other formalities i need to do after getting my wp??

2. I applied for new TRV online from my GC account by myself. Now when i applied it 1 month ago while filling the form, under current status i mentioned implied status and now i want to update it with new work permit number...so how can i do that?? Do i have to use webform or something...because i dont want to get my visa rejected and i dont want to pay consultant because i already paid lots of charges for PR application and WP application also i applied it in advance to save the time because i want to travel to india in december and i wanted to save time

You should not have applied without having an approval for WP, AFAIK.

Can you update your inflight application? I don't know. Its not in SoP. I don't know what IRCC will think of it.

Well. Thats not true. I am in work permit status till now, to apply TRV you need valid work
Permit or visitor record to get stamped. These are mandatory docs while submitting application. Since my status in Canada is work permit, i need to wait till my extension is done. Now, with my extended work permit I can apply TRv and probably i will get stamping till WP validity.
