It's because most of them are with a family/dependent minor as part of the application and there was no online option for adding minor to the application until few weeks ago.

Takes about a 7-10 days for it to update. Hang tight...

I believe they asked for the petition number so I sent a copy of I-797 anyway..

It was sent to Rep email address since that was the one given at the time of application. They just forwarded me the email.

I am curious to know if anyone has done dropbox after recently landing as well. I was able to show just COPR for a In-Person interview after my landing several years ago but when I did dropbox recently just with COPR the consular officer emailed me asking for copy of PR Card which I sent after...

Thanks for the detailed observations here. Most of them already might know this but one thing I would like to highlight is that until back few years ago CBSA didn't track exit records by air or by land but I guess they started it eventually, although when I looked at the CBSA report there were...

Just a little bit of background - I've been a Canadian PR for little over 5 years now and had to apply for a renewal of my PR card after it expired few months ago. I gave it couple more months to just add buffer days since I had extensive work travel between US/Canada for last 5 years. Fun fact...

Fastest way really depends on your country of birth - Assuming you are not born in visa backlogged countries such as India or China Employment based Visa EB2 or Eb3 shouldn't really matter - They both are current for Rest of the world. Technically TN isn't a dual intent so people have tried this...

It shouldn't really matter much but yeah filling everything and getting confirmation right before travel sounds like a good plan.

These were the instructions I was given. I believe they are pretty standard for all drop box applications. Apart from these sent copy of LCA and Offer Letter. I don't think they are needed but I just added them since I had them from my employer. General Required Documents - For All Visa Types...

Tax is one heck of a grey area - check IRS guidelines and apply the best fit scenario to you.. https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc851 Check this part at the bottom of that page - Assuming you are on H1B with I-140 approved which technically puts you in a scenario of taking steps towards green...

Yeah I don't think they are doing this anymore. At least Vancouver didn't have this option. Either you get it delivered with premium service to your location or pick it up at Canada Post location with DL. If you choose pickup at the time of application completion it gives you options for...

Well the processing time seems to be standard text 4-6 weeks across Canada as I remember seeing same text at the time of my submission at Vancouver but I guess it really changes on which consulate is processing faster based on their staffing capacity and amount of applications that are coming...

You can choose any location but make sure you fill DS160 accordingly as you will need to decide on location where you would like to submit while starting your DS160

Here's my take on this.... 1. As far as I know its fine with Indian and US addresses on DS160. Have done that with my previous stampings in Vancouver. But for pickup of passport from Canada Post Office make sure to give your same address on US Drivers License as they are pretty strict about...

Thought it might be helpful for someone who might be in similar situation and posting my timeline and recent experience with H1B dropbox at Vancouver consulate. Just a little bit of background I have been on H1B for over 6 years and had to move to Canada sometime ago as my role got transferred...

Thanks, the wait was insane though.

It was about 3 hours ago at 8:25Am IST

Just received the "dispatched from the IRCC Office, to the Canada Visa Application Centre in CVO-NEW DELHI. " It was in Process since Feb 3rd at IRCC and this is for PR Spousal Category with dependent Child. Can anyone let me know how long will it take from here to receive the passport? Thanks!

Anyone still waiting with Feb 3rd processing at IRCC? We haven't received any updates since then.
