HELP! TRV from UAE (via VFS Dubai) taking toooo long

[ziadelbaghdadi]

I have a Palestinian Authority passport (with UAE residence), I applied 4 times before and I got the TRV within maximum of 10 days.....
This time I applied on the 24 of May and until now there is no word at all!!

I emailed the embassy on the 24th of June, but no reply.

Is this normal? or should I reapply?
Please help!

PS. My wife and kids are Canadian Citizens and this TRV is a family invitation.

Anyone please?.....

mr. Ziad

I wish you are doing well

I think it's very normal for this year special after 15/05/2015 they have peak season

I have apply from 18/05/2015

But till today I don't hear anything back

I wish you will get it very soon but the delay are general from UAE this year

What is strange Abdullah is that this is not the first time I apply...
I applied 4 times before and I got the visa within 5 to 10 days only!

My wife and kids are Canadian and I am going on a family visit like I said before and it seems to me that there is some mix up or something....
I hope going to the embassy next Monday will give me some answers....

wish me luck

It seems like the same situation for all countries. I am from Colombia and I applied since 17 June and I am still waiting.
The past year I got the visa in 3 weeks but this year is different. I wrote an email to VSF and they replied that I should patient because they have a lot of applications and it is high season.

I was really worried and inpatient because my husband is Canadien and I want to travel ASAP.

Only.. Patient.

I have been reading and many people is in the same situations.

Good luck
