How much time has it been since it shows this status? and which country are you applying from? if you don't mind
You can’t even travel until September 7th if you are approved so there is no rush. You will need to show very strong ties like a longterm job, property in your name, savings, etc. because there will be concerns that you will not return to Lebanon considering the current economic crisis.
Thank you for your reply,
If it is a clear refusal you may hear quite quickly. How long it will take to get an approval or refusal will depend on the backlog of applicants. Currently you don’t have priority processing because you don’t meet the travel restrictions. The travel restrictions change Sept 7th. If you have been vaccinated with one of the approved vaccines in Canada and have an approved TRV you’ll be able to travel. Processing times in Lebanon for TRVs is 184 days so you likely have quite a wait ahead of you.
It is usually when they actually start reviewing your application. You should hear from them soon. When did you actually apply and did you submit any web enquiry?

Are you fully vaccinated with a vaccine approved in Canada (Pfizer, Moderna, J&J or AstraZeneca). If approved you need to be fully vaccinated to travel. Obviously it may be difficult to get access to covid vaccines in Lebanon but if you aren’t vaccinated and can get vaccinated you should or you won’t be able to travel to Canada even if approved.
