Visitors Visa (TRV) Processing time 2016 India

[Bryanna]

Hi fari22,

Finally

It's best if you speak with VFS London and hand in your passport personally and opt to pick it up yourself. Visa stamping would take 1-2 days


Cheers

I submitted my TRV paper application on November 14th and linked that to mycic account on 25th November to receive updates. Now in mycic account, it's showing that the application was submitted on November 25th. Will it affect my application processing time ?

Did anybody got passport recently from New Delhi office ? If yes, please provide the details ? Thanks.

Hi everyone!
So im Vietnamese but I couldnt find any forum like this in Vietnam so I decided to post here... cuz i am realllyyyy confused now and i realllyyyy do need your help. please help meeee....
So this is my case:
I studied 2 years in Montreal as an international student. But due to my family emergency, I had to go home and couldn't be able to extend my visa before returning to Vietnam. My visa is already expired so my sister ( who is living in Montreal ) helped me to apply online for a new visa. I returned to Vietnam in July 10 but before that, I already applied for a study permit extension ( Cuz I am still in high school so i have to renew study permit every single year ) and I got it in September ( when I was already in Vietnam so my sister in Montreal are keeping it). My sister applied visa online for me in October 22, and I went to get my biometric information 2 days after ( if im not wrong ).
SO BASICALLY I applied visa on OCTOBER 22 while having STUDY PERMIT already but until now i havent got any email neither updating status nor any information yet. It just states " OPEN " and that's it... it's more than a month now so im so confused. Plus, i wil frequent school in Febuary 2 so im nervous....
PLEASE HELPPPPP!!!!! THANKYOU SO MUCHHH!!!

Hello everyone .. can someone please help me in this situation
My sister is applying for a visitor visa to Canada. Her case is a bit different. Her husband had a work
Permit for three years but he only stayed one year and went back to India. His work permit expired on November 16. They are now applying for visitor visa to visit me on Christmas. My sister got a refusal to her usa visa a few months ago.
My question is whether or not she should declare in her application that she got refused by USA ? Will it impact her application for visitor permit ?
Will her husband's work permit impact the application negatively or positively?
Please help

Hi Bryanna,

thanks

Yes, you can authorize someone else to collect your passport on your behalf. S/he must carry along an authorization letter from you + the VFS/VAC payment receipt + an ID proof

Hi Bryanna,

I am not getting any update from IRCC

Below is the status from 4th November till now.

Application/profile status - Open

Review of medical results - Not needed at this time

Review of submitted documents - No additional documents are needed at this time

Scheduling an interview - Not needed at this time

Review of biometric information - Not needed at this time

Final decision - Not Started

I think CIC is going to spoil my Christmas :'(

Should I go for GCMS notes this time or should send query to Delhi office?

please suggest?

Warm regards,
Rohit

Hi Rohit,

Unfortunately, there's really nothing you can do at this stage. You will just have to wait patiently for a decision.

IRCC will not respond to any Case Specific Enquiry as the processing time has not exceeded the 27 days current estimate. GCMS notes are unnecessary in your case (currently). Also GCMS notes would take 4-5 weeks to obtain

Rohit,
It seems we both are on the same boat and a few others too who have been frustrated with the way things have shaped up in their TRV process. Unfortunately, the only way is to wait till some decision comes out. This is indeed frustrating as I have incurred loss by canceling the tickets as the no of days they claimed to process a TRV has gone past. Have posted my grievance/query as well. I am sure no heed for that too.

Cheers,
Anand

Hi Bryanna,

I got my result today. Unfortunately, I was not able to get the visa and received refusal letter ???

Please review it and update what should I do as next step.

Dear ROHIT TIWARI,

Thank you for your interest in visiting Canada. After a careful review of your temporary resident application and supporting documentation, I have determined that your application does not meet the requirements of the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and Regulations. I am refusing your application.

In making a decision on an application, a number of factors are considered. These may include but are not limited to:

1. the information in the travel and identity documents;
2. the reason for the travel to Canada;
3. the person's contacts in Canada;
4. the person's ties to his or her country of residence (including immigration status, employment and family ties);
5. the person's ability to pay for the trip and to support himself or herself while in canada;
6. whether the person is likely to respect the conditions of this or her admission to canada;
7. whether the person is inadmissible to Canada; and
8. whether the person would be likely to leave canada at the end of his/her authorized stay.

To help you understand my decision, the reason(s) are provided on the following pages.

You are welcome to reapply if you feel that you can respond to these concerns and can demonstrate that your situation meets the requirement. All new applications must be accompanied by a new processing fee.

Please note that only the ground that are checked off apply to the refusal of your application.

"Given your economic establishment, employment prospects, travel history and family ties, I am not satisfied that you would leave canada at the end of your stay as a temporary resident."

Regards,
Rohit Tiwari
