Did you send a Case Specific Enquiry before your application crossed the estimated processing time? If yes, then the email you received from IRCC is a standard response to the CSE.

CAn i apply for SOWP while i have this application in progress ? Can anyone advice ? I need my Spouse here by July 1st week.
No, you cannot apply for a SOWP while this TRV application is in progress. You will have to withdraw your current application first, and this could take a few weeks (if the visa office allows you to withdraw your application)

So do you think i should wait until i get a final decision on my application ?
Can i start processing my PR (province nominated) while TRV in progress ? Will that affect in any way to my application ?

It's taking quite long for your parents' applications. Do your parents work in the defense services/police/judiciary?

Hope you have sent a Case Specific Enquiry requesting to expedite the decisions

I had applied for Visitor visa (Business visa) on 27th march 2017 at VFS bangalore and it is more than a month now.
No clue on when i will get my VISA.
No chance to check the status of the VISA too.
I had submitted my Passport to VFS when i applied. I dont have any clue as of now where it is stuck or what details are required.
in VFS Portal, it is displaying as being processed in Canada Visa office Bangalore.
I am first time traveller.
When can i expect my Passport with VISA Stamped?

Got this message

All applications for temporary/permanent residence in Canada are subject to statutory requirements, including background checks. These requirements must be satisfied before an applicant may be granted temporary/permanent resident status. We are currently conducting certain background investigations.



Our website, http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/times/temp.asp, notes the processing times for the different categories of applications and for residents and nationals of certain countries.



Sincerely,



Immigration section | RA

Hi Vivek,

Here are a few things which you can do:
1. You can try to link your paper application to your online MyCIC account for more updates.

The link is:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/my_application/link.asp


2. Do send a Case Specific Enquiry to the visa office asking if they need any additional information to make a decision.

The link is:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/contacts/web-form.asp


3. Do you need your passport in the meanwhile for any other travel/reason?


BTW processing times are taking longer due to heavy volume of applications received by IRCC


Cheers

At least we now know why your application is taking much longer.

You'll just have to wait until they finish the background checks (it most probably would be criminal and security checks). My guess is this would take a few weeks (do check forum member: Nousherwan's timeline for background checks from Pakistan)
