[Jess24]

It seems people havent posted for a while here so I am assuming processing times have sped up. my time line
passport sent April 9
passport recieved by VFS April 15 (courier delay)
passport received and under process IRCC april 18
counterfoil message in IRCC and dispatched back to VFS April 19....

will update as it will be probably shipped on monday. but this is is relatively quick compared to what i'm reading here, so if anyone reads this maybe your case may be quick like mine. good luck folks

Hey did you received your passport? and where did you sent your passport to ?

Sure enough they shipped it on monday and I got it back that week of wednesday. I used my own USPS label. cheaper than two way service. 13 dollars total vs the 50 plus rip off prices vfs gives with their service

Wanted to add my time line to see if anyone had any info:

AOR Feb 4th
Medical/ biometrics completed April 2024

PPR - May 1st
Passport + documents received by VFS - May 15th
Document under process at IRCC NYC VAC- May 16th
Counterfoil in IRCC account and approval- May 29th

No updates from VFS after this. I need my passport to be able to travel in July so worried a bit. Is anyone in the same boat?
Have raised IRCC webform and emailed VFS - awaiting response

IRCC executive mentioned that there is a huge backlog of applications. He suggested me to create a webform with a valid reason for expediting the processing. My employment start date is March 18th, so I created a webform attaching the offer letter. Maybe because of that they approved it immediately.

Hello,

Could you please share your timeline following the receipt of a notification on your GCK account confirming that your visa has been affixed to your passport?

Thank you
