Hi, we are an Indian passport holder family of 3 (me, husband and 7 yr old kid) staying in Singapore since 7 years. We both are working hence no question of not coming back. Applied for visitor visa in Singapore on 16 Feb, biometric on 22 Feb. Since then no progress. My sister is PR in Canada and our sponsor. Anyone can think of any reason or have experienced delay in such situation?
In the same boat as you applied TRV for my dependent child on 17th Feb - both me and my partner and PRs. No updates since then have raised a webform with the Singapore visa office - hopefully they respond.

Hello all. It has been 45 days since it's showing Biometrics Completed and no update after this. I have applied for my mother in Law trv visa on new IRCC portal. What should I do next? My mother in law lives in Russia. It was showing 40 days in processing times at the time when we applied.
When I contacted IRCC though the web form, for some reason they replied from Warsaw:

Also planning to apply for my FIL. Would it be a good idea to add their 16 year old son? They both had Schengen visas in the past
Or should i apply for them separately?

Hi! I'm looking to apply for my sister in law (wife's sister), her husband, 12 yrs old son, 8 yr old daughter to visit us in Toronto for summer vacations of kids. I have invitation letter showing i'm taking care of all expenses including air tickets, my ITRs, bank statements, savings statement, job letter, T4 for 2021, and all their info showing property in india, both their company's confirming jobs and NOC for travel during holidays and reporting back date, bank statements, letters from schools of both kids confirming their admission and that they have no issue travel to Canada during vacations. Marriage certificates, birth certificates, passport copies of all, and her husband has travel history he travelled to European countries via company business trips. Is all this sufficient or we need something else?

first thing ircc will be pointing would be you funding their trip…they should show their own funds for trip(including airfare)
it will be good if u also include the properties in their name like house/land etc

in visitor visa application, the financial statements of person inviting is not considered

Hmm there should be biometric fee include there as well, did you choose no when filing the biometric section as you haven’t give biometric previously? Because it should shown up in the end when you gonna finalise the application and payment

Thanks for your feedback. Looks I got carried away from my previous canada visa that biometrics already given. After checking my biometrics validity through the IRCC tool , found no biometrics info . Can I submit new application including biometrics option and do IRCC accept 2 applications , thanks
