I have also raised webform and it’s been two weeks they haven’t budge. This is pathetic, i haven’t seen a lot of decisions from Abu Dhabi office

This is very unfortunate that despite having the High Commission of Canada in Islamabad, applications from Pakistan/Pakistani are processed at Abu Dhabi
What we can do now. They are not even picking up call.. If I order GCMS notes it will take one more month. DAMN! Sometimes I felt why I choose Canada. I would go for another option. Australia and U.S are so efficient in handling Visas application even in this pandemic situation.

I am a postdoc and I will be supervising 4-5 postgraduate students(both master and PhD students). According to my employer there is no way they can speed up the immigration process. We are left to the mercy of VO's abilities/capacities/efficiencies
Any Idea. How many applications Visa officer handle at a time?

They didn’t take long after eligibility review to refuse him. For us it’s been over a month and nothing :(

Absolutely. If its rejection then release. At least it will save our time. And we can plan accordingly for next intake.
