Supervisa applied in Aug 2020 & then traveled to Canada on visitors visa

[misstchopra23]

Needing some guidance here:

- Supervisa application submission done online in Aug 2020 (applicant was in India). Biometric request received

- Applicant travelled to Canada later on valid visitors visa

- Applicant submitted biometrics in Canada in Dec 2020

- Applicant's 6 month stay period was nearing end. Stay extension request was submitted in Feb 2021. Visitor record granted in Jun 2021

- Applicant received medicals request in June 2021. Done and uploaded for stay extension request application

- Applicant assumed both biometrics and medicals should show up under both applications automatically- stay extension and supervisa. That wasn't the case as both pieces of information were not updated on supervisa application... only visible under Stay extension application

- Applicant contacted India VAC office through webform. Was told that biometrics was received (although not updated) and not medicals. Applicant submitted the e-medical confirmation form received from panel physician through webform. No response since

Ques 1: If biometrics and medicals were done in Canada, would the India VAC process the application or not? If yes, then why the respective information is not updated under application?

Ques 2: Can the applicant's current presence in Canada affect her supervisa application negatively (submitted when she was in home country)?

Ques 3: What can the applicant do when a PCC request is received?

Ques 4: What should the applicant do if still biometrics and medicals information is not showing updated? IRCC number keeps busy and calls are not getting transferred to the agent due to high call volumes.

All inputs are most welcome. Thanks!

Just booked the biometric appointment using the expired letter and visited Service Canada center on the day of appointment with all docs. They took biometrics.

1. Yes the Supervisa will be processed in India although the system doesn’t usually recognize that you have done the medicals or biometrics for another visa.
2. could. Depends on their ties to India
3. Submit required PCC
4. Send in a webform after around 2 weeks indicating that biometrics and medical has been recently done for their TRV and can be used for the supervisa

 

[misstchopra23]

So, a PCC request comes for supervisa as well?

I did the webform thing and just got the reply that the biometrics and medicals have been received by the concerned office.

Last update on the supervisa was May 12th medicals were passed and running backround check since then... do you have an update?

Nope. Still a waiting game despite raising webforms. Did you have to submit Travel Exemption form?
