Change of Responsibility at Canadian Visa office in Islamabad Pakistan
Thursday, 22 April 2010

Applications lodged on or after April 1 2010, by residents of Pakistan for Canadian Permanent Resident visas in all economic categories are no longer being processed from the Canadian High Commission in Islamabad.



Instead applications for the Quebec Skilled Worker, Provincial Nominee, Investor, Entrepreneur, or Self-Employed Persons categories must be submitted to the Canadian High Commission in London, United Kingdom.

With the exception of applications in advanced stages of processing, applications lodged in the above categories prior to April 1st 2010 will be transferred to London for processing.

Applications and processing fees for the Federal Skilled Worker program should be sent to the Central Intake office in Sydney, Nova Scotia, and they will be forwarded to London.

Though no negative impact is foreseen for the change in processing location, approximately 12,000 files in all economic classes will be transferred to London.

Thanks for your information. Don't you think you would be difficult for making V/Calls and other security check for CHC-London due to time difference.

Any idea how long transferred process would be finished? I think it's will take more time and Pakistani applicants would be suffered.

Thanks for the info. Do you have any idea how long will it take to process the applications now from london.  I applied in in june 2009 and submitted full documents in Aug 2009 to islamabd office. I received last letter from embassy in OCT 2009 telling me that they have received my documents in processing office. after that no news?? What is AOR?

[ahmadtajwer]

Rafia, your case will probably be dealt by Islamabad office. CHC Islamabad is slow and so is CHC London. London is also one of the slowest in the world. Applicants from London have submitted their docs from 8 months or over and still waiting for medicals.
