Hi,

I applied for my mom's super visa in February 23rd, 2022, after biometrics completed, no movement till now. I used the new portal. When did you apply?

 

[pmjc]

I have just submitted an application for my mom last night. My only concern is that the intended travel date is within a month and processing may take longer than that and VO may refuse the application.

even if the given travel date is passed, they will process the application(means won’t reject it in the name of travel dates)

Hi. The processing times in the Philippines for super visa is 245 days while regular visit visa is 45 days per IRCC, this is as of March 16.

These aren’t correct processing times. Supervisa isn’t close to correct.

Hi canuck, I do hope so that this isn't correct. This is the processing time shown in the IRCC website and it's being updated weekly usually on a Wednesday. 2 weeks ago it was 287 days for supervisa for Philippines. As to my experience with regular visit visa for my mom using IRCC Portal not GC Key, it says 45 days and got the PPR on the 34th day.

In GC Key, yes, I agree it's not correct, as it says months ago that the processing time was 87 days, and it has been almost 250 days and no movement in my mom's app in there.
