My husband applied for a TRV in Kingston Jamaica on the 16th of February. We were told it takes 10 to 15 days to receive an answer. we are March 11th and still no answer. Is this normal? Can they have lost or forgotten his application?

Hi guys!
I am just wondering: is it common to be kept waiting past the expected due date. or is it just me that's overreacting?

Hi. The current processing time for your neck of the woods is 14 weeks from the time they have recieved your complete application. So if they request additional docs or a medical the processing time of 14 weeks will start from then. So dont worry be happy.

696 thank you for your response.Yes we already contacted them by email last week. the website tells us we will receive a response within one month.

It makes no difference cori123. If it is a simple tourist thingy-majig or a pr app. You must wait at least 14 weeks.

It isn't 14 WEEKS for Kingston, Jamaica for TRVs, plz check timelines, TRVs are in DAYS, and yes theirs might be delayed, but doesn't mean there's any problem, delays can happen. |

Thanks a lot, guys!
I will let you know when we actually receive a response. It might help someone else to know they can be extensive delays.

Hi There, my boyfriend has been waiting approximatly six weeks as well for a response on a visitors visa to canada and no contact whats so ever. The turn around time when he submitted had been changed on the Kingston website from 14 days to 20 days and now at 21. We have sent a fax, email, letter. and still nothing. I am wondering if you every recieved your response?
