Hello Bryanna, Thanks for the response,

I have two question I would appreciate if you provide Answer,

1) if it normal they don't change any status on the online portal (Submitted to Progress) and directly send email to submit passport? I was under the impression that they will update each and every step of my application on my portal.

2) In my purpose of travel and Invitation letter, it's mentioned that my travel dates will be 21st May to 4th June, 15 days business trip but I don't think I will get any update by 21st May after looking at current processing timeline. Do I want to know that is that ok if I get passport submission request after my decided plan? is it normal if we have to change decided plan because of visa process delay? My wife is also accompanying me and we have also added her NOC letter for leaves during this time frame. So do I need to get another NOC letter if the date gets crossed?

Can you tell me what is the process if above scenario occurred? will it create a problem during my landing and if they ask for this plan change?

Regards
Priyank
 
You can email the relevant visa office + send a IRCC web form to request for your passport to be returned.

Do include evidence for the US visa interview + you must state that you are not cancelling your application and you will return your passport whenever the IRCC visa office asks to submit your passport

Requesting passport to be returned is it normal, or would this be a super special request?

Updates may/may not be given for each process.

No problem at all if you get passport requests/ or if you visit after your original intended plan has changed

Applicants have requested for their passports to be returned while their TRV applications were being processed. It is normal especially if someone needs to travel to another country or for some other reason.

BTW applicants have received passport requests after their passports were returned. Case: ubfx
 
Should I email tonabudhabi office the iom paper again as i did send it to abu dhabi office the scan image of letter last week
You must send a Case Specific Enquiry to the Abu Dhabi visa office. I believe they do not accept emails any more

Hello Bryanna,

Apologies on the repost. I am trying to get a response from someone who could throw more light into this situation. I thank the person who responded prior. But, the below email which is an IRCC web form response is very concerning. I received this on 28 April and my case was submitted on 26 march.
"
Good Day,
After careful review of your application, we have determined that a decision has recently been made. Please be patient as correspondence has been sent to you regarding information pertaining to your application.
Have a nice day,"

I currently reside in the US and work full time and wanted to visit someone for 15 days. No family ties in Canada and my financials are strong.

Appreciate any inputs.

thanks!
