Does one of your parents have a defense background?

It was police record for my father-in-law. He is a retired police officer

What type of docs did you submit for the quick processing? I’m wondering because most applications of this nature are taking more than 6 months.

I’m on the same boat. Submitted for my father in law

Hi everyone,

Is there anyone who applied is June 2025 and still waiting to hear back? The webform I submitted on March 10th received a generic reply providing no meaningful update. Application Status Tracker show Biometrics, Medical Exam, and Eligibility as "Completed", and Background Verification as "In progress", which has been the case since Sep 22, 2025. My FIL worked for Military Engineering Services in India and my guess is that's the reason behind prolonged processing time; but I am just guessing.

We invited them for our son's first birthday in Sep 2025. Needless to say, we think they'll miss the second birthday too.

I am considering applying for a regular visitor visa. Is that an acceptable thing to do in IRCC's eyes? Anyone with experience succeeding in obtaining a visitor visa while waiting for a super visa?

Is there anything else we can do to request an actual update? The current processing time is 138 days as of May 13, 2026. We applied 323 days ago.

Any help or information would be appreciated.

Thanks.

If he has a military background then he will have the same issue applying fro TRV as he undergoes the same background verification. You can contact an MP or an immigration lawyer about next steps. This is with the Indian government to provide the military background information.

Thank you for the info. Full disclosure, his role was civilian with zero involvement with the security apparatus or access to any sensitive information. But of course, verifying that would take time too. Hopefully the Indians can pick up some pace in this case then.

I will contact our MP and see if they are able to help.

Thanks again.
