How long to get Visitor visa from Chandigarh consulate waiting since Aug 25

Applied for multiple entry Visitor visa for my mother to VFS Delhi but they transferred application to Chandigarh Consulate due to new rules and our region comes under Chandigarh consulate. It has been over 21 working days now but the status on VFS website still says 'Application received at Chandigarh on 25-Aug and is currently Under Processing'.

1. Has anyone recently applied for visitor visa thru Chandigarh consulate and how long did it take?
2. Are there complications in getting visa for seniors?
3. How long does it take Chandigarh consulate to send passport back to VFS Delhi (if anyone had similar case)?

Any help would be appreciated

Hey, I will be doing the same for my parents in December at Chandigarh office. Could you share TODOs and things to remember when applying for parents visa?

Just curious - wondering if you had applied for a family sponsorship for your parents.

There was no any response & Status was "In Processing" after 40 days. then i mark a mail to CIC Chd on 11/10/2011....

on 13/10/2011 got SMS of our file Processed. Got Passport from 14/10/2011 from VFS by hand.
