Thanks for the topic!

My spouse, who is Saudi, submitted her TRV application online on the 21st. Biometrics were provided the same day but did not show up in the system until 2 days later.

Application still says 'Open'.

Unable to understand the process. Some time we are receiving emails on updates and sometime not.
 
Applied on 27th April, no response yet.
 
I Applied for TRV Online. I am a Chinese student applying from UK.

I am going to attend the undergraduate research program at Fields Institute for eight weeks this summer.

Online Application submitted on 22 April 2016
Application confirmation on 22 April 2016
Transmitted on 22 April (Processing time at the moment was 6 days)

I have not heard back from CIC. I also have submitted the webform (case-specific enquiry) yesterday and the automatic reply email said that the reply from CIC will come in approx. 10 days.

I am going to leave UK for China on 13 June and my planned visit to Canada is 2 July, so I am a little worried.

Hi,

My plan to visit Canada is 06 May, 2016 and I want to celebrate my anniversary with my spouse. But till date I did not received any updates on my application. I dont know what to do in this situation, because the main purpose of applying the Visiting Visa is to celebrate our Anniversary which is on 8th of May.
I am worried a lot.

very sorry but it does not look good. this process is a mess.
 
I don't know how accurate the processing timelines are. We applied for a TRV online (for the Bogota office) in early April and got the passport request three days later! Even though the timeline said the process should take 13 days.
 
Applied April 5, submitted biometrics one week later. Passport request April 29. Submitted passport May 1. Approval and passport ready May 5.

Total time approx 1 month. Online estimator said 90 - 111 days.

Hi All,

Just to keep you posted on our application update

1) Applied online from India on April 17 for family of 4. All have valid USA Business visa and stayed in US earlier. purpose of visit tourism
2) Request for passports received - 5th May
3) Sent passports through VFS/VAC today - Shipped from Chennai to Bangalore

expected by middle of next week.

The process is little slow , however, I guess if we have proper documentation and case, approval will definitely come.
