Have you checked your cic portal to see if any additional documents were requested? You can email delhi consulate and check.

was there any change of circumstance on your end, did you get married after submitting your application or something like that
the application was submitted from a Canadian address by my relative however the passport submission was from India and delivery address was also Indian. would that be considered as change in circumstance?

so it was a paper based application? what was the residential address you had in your application? did you move after applying?

Thanks. Any tips with respect to job search? During which months do companies hire? Is it easier to get contractual work first and then gradually move to a permanent position?
