Anyone here from Dubai (Filipino citizen) applied TRV online this month of May? Just want to track the processing time as I am worried I have read lots of delayed cases. Will be traveling by July 2016.

Applied for TRV on Jan 26th ; scheduled to leave in July (for summer break with wife and kids) but still no word.

UAE processing seems very very backlogged ; and I have been to Canada 4 times and wife and kids are Canadian so go figure!

I applied online on April 28th 2016 for my mom but unfortunately there is still no update (UAE online TRV processing time is 18 days).

naveedmath your case is highly unusual. Are you from Pakistan? Have you raised a case specific enquiry for you visa application?

Hopefully you all will receive a response soon. I request you to keep posting any updates so that others can anticipate what's next for them.

very strange, long waiting for you, Hopefully you will receive it soon. Btw, Canadian Wife and children are very big disadvantage for you (home ties very weak), but your 4 times visit and return to Canada is a very strong positive.

OH MY! This is alarming...do we have digits or some agency that we can call or ask to with these cases? it's frustrating as it will waste your energy and time and destroys your vacation plans. :(

Wow? That's too much! Did you contact Canadian Embassy about this?

Got an email from CIC today. TRV application was rejected.

The reasons were "Purpose of Visit" (I had attached hotel bookings and plane tickets) and "Ties to country of residence" (We are expats and my mom has been in the UAE for the past 35 years.). This was the second application after a prior rejection.

I really do not know how to address these concerns.

Who sponsored her for canada? how many dependents in UAE of your mother? It is difficult to get visit visa of a single mother, even she has dependents in home country
