Has anyone gotten their TRV approved from inside Canada and applied in 2021. If so, could you provide when you applied?
--------------------
Rant:
I understand there is a backlog of applications but Canada should really send some applications to their embassies around the world to speed up the process. It's ridiculous that TRVs are approved within 52 days if you applied from USA, but 175 days if you applied from Canada as of August 1 2021. What is the point of Canada opening the border in September if people with status in Canada can't freely travel to and from? Correction, you can leave Canada but not enter again?? What is that logic?
Also, I really do not understand why your TRV doesn't automatically get renewed when you extend your stay as a Student/Worker. eTAs to get automatically renewed so why can't TRVs? Furthermore when you initially apply for your Study Permit your TRV gets automatically issued so why can't this be the case again? In what scenario would someone meet all the requirements to be a student/worker but not meet the requirements for a TRV? None.
