I think they are calling through Skype. We made a subscription for Canada so they could call. The problem is that when they follow the instructions (I tried it myself as well!) there is no option for visitors, only for students, workers and express entry.

No I am not but that's an easy fix. The thing is, that every time they try to call they either cant get through, or they are told that there is nothing they can do because their application is being processed outside of Canada. Thank you so much for your help. I really appreciate it.

They have been living in Greece for 20 years. They have the residency. They have showed employment letters for both, and their rental property contract. They included a travel plan, reservations for hotels and restaurants to prove that we only wanted to spend my birthday and my mums birthday...

If its normal to wait, we obviously cant do much but wait. All the webforms they have sent , have been case specific but -as you said- have done nothing. Do you think they should update their file with my pr card? And also do you think if we hire a consultant to take it from here, they can do...

they are both Greek residents but their passports are albanian!

Thank you so much for your reply. Current processing times are 112 days. So we are actually at almost double that time. They sent a webform when we passed the processing times and again nothing happened. Their eligibility hasn't started, and their background check is in process. From the GCMS...

Hello everyone! My parents applied for their visitor visa on March 1st and after submitting their biometrics a week later there has been not a single move in their file. They have contacted the consulate in rome multiple times but they only get back automated replies or the same answer that is...

Thank you so much for your answer . I really appreciate it. I forgot to mention, regarding the gcms notes, I ordered them for my parents visitor visa application, as processing times are 127 days and it has been 170 days since they applied. I have tried to contact the visa office in Rome a few...

Thank you so much. Fingers crossed for me !! Generally if you see an update on the application status tracker but no change in your gckey or in the tracker does it mean something? It only says updated 9th August? Can the order of gcmc notes probably indicate that update?

Thank you so much. I think I have come across that one in the past too. Very useful. One last question. How can my biometrics be in progress ? IRCC told me its part of the criminality check, and since that is in progress too, thats why my biometrics show in progress? Does that make any sense to you?

Oh I see ! Does it happen to know why for some people background is completed so fast and for others it take 2-3 months? Are they also requesting information from our countries too?

May I please ask wchi country are you from ? My partner and I have applied for PR and our Background check is in progress since June 26. Maybe it has something to do with our country? I am Greek and he is Albanian but has been living in Greece the last 20 years.

I was on the phone with IRCC and they said that criminality is in process and security hasn't started. Same for eleigibility, hasn't started either. I guess you guys are right. Maybe i just have to wait.

Oh that makes me feel so much better. You guys are the best.

Hello everyone. I have a question. I got my medicals passed on June 26th and since then nothing has changed. Both my background and Biometrics are in progress. How can my biometric be in progress when in the gckey account i can see them linked? Also Eligibility status is "not started". My AOR...

Thank you so much for your reply. Surprisingly Visa office in Rome has been extremely helpful throughout the whole process. They helped me fix my email issues, and guide me how to do it and informed me about the status of my application without even asking. I sent a webform and an updated...

Hey guys. Rome Office Visa process do glad there is a thread going on. Its insane how long a tourist visa is taking. Last year my partner got his in under a month (maybe because we had already booked tickets and we were sending a webform every 7 days.). Who knows. For my parents we submitted...

Oh my God Thank you so much for your reply. What a terrible mistake. Now I understand what you mean. WE might have though that my dad is the principal applicant, but by using my email IRCC thinks that they have used a representative (me in this case) without completing the form. The weird...

Could this be the reason their application has not been processed yet?

But we didn’t lie. I just helped them complete their application. We just used my email because my dad never checks his. Maybe they think this is mirepresentation. All the web forms my dad sent, sent them using the email we used for the application, his name and everything. I don’t understand...
