Hi guys,
I just wanted to have an idea on how long an application takes for a TRV to Canada from Philippines. I submitted an online TRV for 5 months for my mother (widowed but common law since 1994, husband staying in Philippines). We would like to spend Christmas and New Year's with her and she's always wanted to see snow. We made it 5 months because we figured we can accompany her back to the Philippines in April/May since we are also going to the Philippines for a family reunion. This was noted in her letters (except for the reunion part since it was just recently decided)
She is retired, no bank accounts, as we are supporting her fully and no land titles under her name (still under my father's family name). She has 2 brothers in Canada, 2 children and grandchildren. She's leaving behind 3 brothers and 1 sister in the Philippines along with 3 children and grandchildren. I believe her ties are stronger in Philippines since her common-law husband is staying there and the rest of my siblings are still there.
We made support and invitation letters for her and opened up a bank account with her name and put money in there as our Christmas presents for her. We reserved tickets for her and got insurance.
What do you think are her chances? I'm seeing alot of quick approvals on here.
Oct 31 - submitted online
Oct 31 - notification application status "opened"
Please share your timelines...approved or not approved and reason, etc.
Thanks!
