Two Webforms. Both complaints are about the delay. The seconds one is more desperate. One answered (October 15):

Good day,

Thank you for contacting Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.

We thank you for your patience and understanding regarding the delay for answering your enquiry due to the ongoing situation in Afghanistan.

yeah the thing is if you contact ottawa that's what you get. i tried it a couple of times, and that's what I always get.
I would suggest raising a webform directly to your visa office.

ask them about the delay, and also apply for your GCMS notes.. there might be something going on..

mine is stuck at security checks! its been there for 3 months since I applied from a third country (apparently)

How can I check for sure that my office is in Moscow? I applied online and only was in the Moscow visa center once to receive biometrics. Ahh, I guess these GCMS notes are the answer, which is + 1 month.
