I applied for visitors visa to restore lost status when inland application was returned, feeling anxious

[dual2canada]

Hi everyone. I applied for one more year because I wanted to be completely honest that is how long it would take to send my application a second time if it got sent back. Did I ask for too much? Should I send CIC a letter asking for less? Thank you

Hi - I applied for restoration status for my visitor visa too. I applied December 31st 2020 & received my restoration June 2nd. On my form I asked for a year and my current visitor visa is valid until December 31st 2021.

Same here, I hope it is okay. Are you a principal applicant on a inland application?

My husband applied for his extension February 14th. It just got approved today for 1 year from the date he applied. He is PA inland. They are very backlogged right now. When did you apply?

I applied for my OWP with my inland application, which I sent in April. So far I have only received AOR1.

I cannot believe it took them 6 months to process your restoration! And they only give you restoration for 6 months when you asked for 1 year?!
