VIENNA OFFICE

[strength2]

I will definitely post an update here. Last note the security screening wasn't started yet...

If under activity it says new value: Not started, Updated Date: XXXX/XX/XX it actually went to CSIS on that Date.

Hi guys;
It's an update from me I just received an email from Vienna to send an updated schedule a background declaration so they can finalise our application.
Do anybody know how long from this to DM and PPR?

Hey,
Do you mind sharing what exactly they said? Did they really say that they need this in order to complete your application?

It could mean 2 things, they either need it just to update & complete your application since it's been a year or they want to do comparison to your original declaration/more research.

They refer to schedule A for security check. I don't know if they have already started your security check or they are going to start it now. So not really clear if it is a sign of getting DM soon but lets hope so. At least they are actively working on your file since May. If they just start security screening again it can just be a one day job or if they send it for intensive security screening and to CSIS it can be a 8-9 month process.

Thank you, sorry to hear it is taking so long for you. It doesn't seem fair that some applications get approved a lot faster than others. Looking at the forum it is very hit and miss. I am very lucky and grateful to be approved this quickly. Mine was a spousal application, the husband and our two children are Canadian citizens, perhaps that is why mine went faster? Hope you get decision made soon and wishing you good luck in Canada

I see they requested medical almost 2 months after they started processing your app, and that after medical was passed you got DM pretty fast. I uploaded my PCC and Schedule A and am now awaiting medical request, hope after thats done i will also get DM fast. Anyway, congratulations!

Hi everyone,

I'm not an applicant to this visa office, I just have a question for a friend. They are October 2016 common law applicants from the Netherlands. What is the average processing time for them, based on people's recent experience? Thanks!

It depends how they access your case, average processing time of this office after receiving the AOR is 8 months.

Great! Thanks for your replies! Another question, have you found that your visa office has slowed down over the past couple of months? Some others are saying the summer has kind of effected processing times.
