    Online Visitor Visa Processing Times and Passport return from NYC

    Hi! Here are my answers to your qs: The OCWP link appears on all CIC application pages, it's not something you have to click on or submit. You just have to worry about the "documents checklist." So don't worry about the transfer of eligibility link. Email: I emailed them every day once it was...

    TRV processing in NY Canada Consulate - Recent

    I replied to this on the other thread, but in case you didn't see it: I just got my visa today and the stamp did say it was issued in Ottawa, even though I applied online and sent my passport to NYC. So it looks like Ottawa might be handling online applications!

    I sent it to the NY Consulate. Has anyone received their passport since April 16? That was the last report I saw, and it was for the first week of March applications.

    Wow, that's a long wait!! Has anyone that applied in the second week of March received their passports? Last news I heard were passports received on 4/16 from first-week of March applications.

    I don't think online is faster. That's what I was assuming when I did it, and I got a passport request within 22 days. I though that meant the visa was approved, but now I think that it only means your application is not "in queue" and ready to be processed. I see others on the forum who applied...

    TRV processing in NY Canada Consulate - Recent

    You can probably go back and upload it now. After I uploaded my documents and submitted the application, I could still open the "view checklist" link and see a list of all the docs. Even though I submitted the application on March 9, the document list still said "Required by 29 March." I...

    Finally got an email reply from the consulate today saying "application is currently being finalized and all your documents will be returned to you shortly." However, from what I've read from other people this email doesn't mean much, since it could take another week before they actually mail...

    I am agonizing waiting for my passport to return from the NY Consulate and have to figure out if I'll need to reschedule my trip. For those of you who already received your visas, could you tell me roughly when your tracking number was activated (morning or evening)? Did you also receive a...

    TRV processing in NY Canada Consulate - Recent

    Congrats, jds2013!! My timeline is very similar to yours, so I hope to be receiving good news soon! Seems like 40 days really is the magic number, as someone said. You may turn in the I-94 upon coming in, but if you don't they'll just take it once you enter the country again. It's not a big deal.

    TRV processing in NY Canada Consulate - Recent

    I'm on the same boat and very apprehensive about this whole process. Have still not heard anything after three emails to the consulate. Vikram, let us know if you hear any contact from your fax/email. I also have a trip scheduled for the April 23 and am dreading the possibility of having to...
