I have applied for visitor visa for my parents from outside Canada(India) on August 10th,2017. After regular processing time (34 days), I have submitted a web form on Oct 05th, 2017 but had not received any response for the form and there is no status update for my application.
Any advise what needs to be done. Please help.

Aug 10th, 2017: Application submitted
Aug 15th, 2017: Confirmation on application received
There is no update in CIC account after that.

No, by mail. But i sent my passport together with the application too as one of the CIC officers advised me to do to save time. Did you send your passport over already and waiting for it to be shipped back?

So, I got the passport request on October 14th. I sent the passport the same day. The passport arrived at the embassy on October 16th. I enclosed an empty xpresspost envelope for the return. The trackign number has not been activated, so they haven't sent it back. Also, no news on the online application.
Hi, My case is similar. My passport reached IRCC office on 30 Oct 2017, i got online application update that my application has been approved on 16 Nov 2017. I am afraid they might have lost my passport as the expresspost tracking number i sent along is still untrackable.
As far as i know it takes 2 days to reach..
Any idea how can i know whether my passport is lost / anything else ?

if the xpresspost return envelope you sent has not been activated, they have probably not sent it back yet.
