There is nothing you can do unfortunately. There are people on this forum who have sent passports more than six months and still waiting. Some of them have been returned by chc for doing medical for second time since first medical expired. I guess we need to be escalate on this wrong procedure of requesting passport at initial stage which is very unusual. Other Canadian visa posts request it just at the time of issuing visa but new Delhi is exception to this
There should be something that we can do about this. Its really unreasonable that they request the passport in advance and don't even look at the application for months. I wanted to go away with my husband, but because he didn't have his passport we were forced to stay within India. It seems efficiency is just taken out of this process! I just hope they get moving with the applications and stop making people wait for no good reason <sigh>.

Congratulation honey...so happy for youguys.... Hey!!!!!! Did you guys miss me??? I have been away from this forum for the past 10 days because my husband came into town to visit me, and we finally went on our honeymoon- we went to Orlando, Florida. My husband is leaving tomorrow to go back to Canada  Before he came though, I was always thinking that- "wouldn't it be cool if I got my decision made while he is here to visit me?" How awesome would that be??? Panda and I were talking about it! WELL, GUESS WHAT GUYS?      Yesterday morning (May 7th) when I woke up next to my husband, I logged into CIC and it says "Decision Made" !!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I will assume that it is "approved" since I did not get any interview! Let's see how long it takes for my passport to come from the office. How long does it usually take to get the passport back from the office to a New Delhi address? And congrats SRINIVAS for the approval of your wife's visa, and everyone else who recently got their approval! I will read back on this forum tomorrow, to see what I have missed

Hi!has it ever happened that from application received status, it jumps to decision made?? It's been 41 days n I hav no travel history for then to do checks... running out of patience  ( Hang in there. I think it has to go into process and then it will be decision made. My status is still application recieved I am getting frustrated. New Delhi is sure taking there time.

Totally agree; it wreaks havoc with so many people who are residing outside India or who have to travel.

Hi guys
Speaking of travel history, my spouse has a travel history of 4 years between Saudi Arabia to India. Actually she was born in Saudi and travel between India and Saudi until the age of 4 and never travelled after that. Should I include that on the Detail Foreign travel forum? Also will that increase the processing time?
Thanks

hi fayou im not sure but i think they just count travel history after age of 18. you need to confirm with CIC and its not going to increase your processing time for sure  good luck
