Hi. This forum greatly helped me with my work permit journey. Thanks a lot. Here is my timeline
ICT GSS Skill Level A: Marketing Research (non COVID)- I do not know the NOC code
Application Submitted: June 12, 2020, USA
Biometrics: July 15, 2020

Three expedition letter sent through employer on webform- got a generic reply saying processing times are delayed
Moved to India and updated address: Oct 1st week
Biometrics Correspondence Letter and Approval letter: 27 October 2020
I was not requested a passport as I have a valid visitor visa. Can anyone confirm that passport stamping is not needed for applicants who already have a Canada visa counterfoil on their passport?

Hello

New to this thread, and I have a basic question: has anyone here traveled to the USA with a visitor visa (B1/B2), and manage to do their biometrics at an ASC. Can it be done?
Can you provide guidance please?

Any updates from anyone? I have applied for WP on June 26 (GSS) from US. Biometry on July 23rd. I am still waiting to hear back.
Finally, I got approval for my application last week.

I have some queries regarding passport submission. Can you let me know the details if you have experience sending the passport to the CVAC?

1.
I have received the shipping labels from CVAC. Do I just need to go to the FedEx office with a passport and all supporting documents? Would they help me with the envelope which is safe to send passports and packing/seal of the envelope or I need to buy the envelope upfront and package/seal it myself?

For passport return also do I need to buy an envelop and send it to CVAC along with passport and other documents or I am good as long as I send them the return label along with my passport?

2.
Another query on TT Consent form: I think I just need to fill up Page #2 with my details and signed it. Other pages like 'Consent for Indirect submission' and 'assisted by CVAC staff' could be left blank. Also on the last page, there are biometry details. I have already provided my biometry details and based on some earlier replied on this forum I guess I need to leave the last page also blank, right?

Thanks for your help in advance and good luck everyone waiting to hear back from IRCC.

Hello All,

My ICT WP was filed from US and now I moved to India as my US visa is maxout, now if I change my address from US to India, will it impact my timelines? as India wait time for approval is more weeks than US?

Anybody whose application was filed in US and moved in India , please share your experience and suggestions.

Thanks.

I applied for ICT Visa on 10th July and biometric was done on 21st July. This week I got the request to send the passport. Can I send the passport to VFS New Delhi?

My biometric was done in US and then I returned to India as my H1B got maxed out.
