[hnhssn]

Hi, what option did you select in the webform. Did you use select application status or a different option.

Selected “other” as it’s not really application status.

Not sure. But for some it worked.

I am sorry to post this here as I understand this is not the right group but everyone over here is discussing about the passport stamping that means you have surpassed the approval stage. Please help me for the below thing if anyone can.

Visitor Visa – 3rd Attempt for My Sister-in-Law | Feedback Welcome

Hi everyone,

We just submitted a 3rd visitor visa application for my sister-in-law (Indian citizen) and would love your thoughts.

Application History:

• June 2022: Applied with my in-laws → her visa refused (in-laws approved).
• Sept 2022: Reapplied with medical background (Disclosed that she had meningitis, was fully dependent) → refused again.
• GCMS Notes: Refusals cited “lack of ties” and “weak finances” (LUCKLIY - no mention of medical reasons).

We waited over 2 years before reapplying.

What’s Changed:

• She’s now working full-time (Sales Associate since Aug 2023, ₹35K/month).
• Has ₹619,000 (~CAD $10K) in her account.
• This time, we did not show full sponsorship - positioned her as financially stable and working.
• Visit purpose is clear and focused: to attend the Ganesh Festival (Aug 27, 2025) and reunite with her twin sister (my wife) - we avoided generic tourism reasons.
• Intended stay: ~2 months.

Current Application:

• Applied: June 29, 2025 via new IRCC portal
• Note: No IMM forms or photo upload requested (IS THIS NORMAL?)

Documents Submitted:

Sister-in-law:

1. Cover letter (focused on family visit + festival)
2. Bank statement (Sept 2023–present, ₹619K)
3. 6 months’ pay slips
4. 2-month employer leave letter
5. Doctor’s note (seizure-free 2+ years)
6. RIMI travel insurance ($500K, $0 deductible, 2 months

My Wife (Host):

1. 6 months’ bank statement (CAD $21,500)
2. 6 months’ pay slips
3. Letter of invitation (for Ganesh Festival)
4. Birth certificates (proving sibling/twin relationship)
5. Mention of our new home purchased in 2024
6. Copies of our passports + Canadian citizenship certificates

Looking For:

• Honest feedback on her chances this time
• Similar reapplication success stories
• Any advice on how IRCC may view this improved situation

Thanks so much in advance!

Dispatched from IRCC today. Most probably will reach VFS in my city by tomorrow. If not by Monday.

Got it. If we paid for 2 way courier service, can we still go and pick up the passport from VFS to avoid the delay by the courier service?

The eligibility got updated and now it says final decision has been made on the IRCC portal but the vfs tracker still has no update. How much time it took in between these 2 steps for you.

You should be getting the dispatch message by today. For me, the eligibility got updated after the dispatch message

Next day of submission I think

I didn't get the message today. Still waiting. Nothing on vfs tracker also. Once you got the dispatch message, did the status update on VFS tracker also?
