Hi Everyone,
Webform was raised on 15th October after 216 days of application submission and got replied to today. Same answer:-

Dear Applicant,
Visitor visa (or Temporary Resident Visa) processing capacity has been reduced as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, with resources diverted to priority lines of business, such as study and work permits.

IRCC is working to deliver quality client service across its global network by making our programs and services more efficient, clear and consistent.

Despite our considerable efforts, we know that some applicants have experienced significant wait times with the processing of their applications, and we continue to work as hard as possible to reduce processing times. We thank you for your patience and understanding at this moment.

We appreciate your patience and we will contact you with the next step in due time.
SAME FOR ME
I RAISED WEBFORM ON 14 OCT AND RECEIVED THE SAME ANSWER AS YOU
SUBMITTED ON 22 FEBRUARY FROM DOHA (ONLINE )

Submitted on 11th of March and Review of eligibility started on 28th March.

After that, no update so raised the webform on the 15th of October.

I read some threads they got TRV before the processing time. Why some got approval and some are waiting for more than 8 months?

Really do not understand the procedure.

July Applicants for Visitor Visa from Qatar , anyone got PPR ?
New Portal
July 5: Submitted
July 12: Biometrics Completed
From then its shows review of eligibility and background check under processing.

Its been more than 3 months, have raised multiple web forms and send an email to Abudabi office.

Travel date is due for October last week.
I emailed ircc on September 22 and this response I got from them regarding Abudabi office.

Departmental records confirm that this application is in progress at the Canadian visa office in Abu Dhabi and is in queue for review with immigration officials. While I’m not able to give an exact timeframe for the completion of this application, please be assured that you will be contacted regarding the next step in processing as soon as circumstances permit.


As anyone got an idea how long will it take for them to process application after this?

Just for the information, 8 countries applications as processed in Abu Dhabi, Afghanistan, Baharain, Kuwait, Oman, Pakistan, Qatar, UAE, Yemen. All the applications from these countries are processed in Abu Dhabi and imagine the work load they might have. Also I've got to know that IRCC will clear all 2022 application within this year only they have taken strong step to clear all the back log, around 30k new employees had been hired at IRCC. Hopefully those who applied earlier this year will get the response by Dec 2022.

If what you're saying is true regarding clearing all 2022 applications by December than you've given us all a lot of hope.

Hi, when did you apply and from where?..what is the status of your application? And how did you get to know all this?

Because if whatever your saying is true, then it really gives us a ray of hope.
