Alert – Strike Action
The Professional Association of Foreign Service Officers (PAFSO) union is currently taking strike action. PAFSO union members responsible for processing visa applications have been walking out of offices in Canada and overseas.
Posted processing times for both temporary and permanent resident visa applications do not take into account work stoppages.
Anyone applying for a visa should anticipate delays and submit their application as far in advance as possible.
Contingency plans are already in place to ensure all offices remain open and are providing at least a minimum level of service. Priority will be placed on urgent humanitarian applications.
CIC continues to closely monitor the situation.
Hey I applied for TRV on 20 May through VAC Abu Dhabi,UAE as a Omani Citizen and still waiting for any response from UAE embassy,Abu Dhabi.Tracking on VAC website shows only application is under processing.CIC website shows processing time for Abu Dha 17 days and UAE embssy shows 5 working days.But in the recent update on 5 june of CIC I found this new information which I am sharing above for comments and expert opinions appreciated.
Thanks
