I’m also on a depandent settlement visa. Having UK/USA visa does help for showing Travel History to VO. However, it does not play a big role in decision making, I believe. I have seen people with several visa to US, UK & Schengen getting refused on other grounds. Lets hope for the best and see if any update comes next week. Please update on this thread about any update and IRCC webform reply.
Hi just an update, I got a response Vida email that I sent to the London office last night (none from the IRCC web form enquiry yet). Just basically said that the online time processing thing is only based on 80% of applications!!! And that our application is under "active process", whatevrer that means.. any progress from your end ?

Hi I have submitted an online application on 22nd June. Haven't heard anything from them since. Travelling on 3rd Aug!

Sent them an email and got the same reply about 80% of applications get done within the estimate processing time which currently is at 30 days. Using that maths 100% should be done within 36 days?! I guess I will give it 4 more days...

Just some background I'm a UK permanent resident with valid 10 year US visa and a few others

15th of August. I don't think I'll be able to make it.
You applied 8 days after me but travelling 12 days later... hopefully we both make it...

What was the estimated time when you applied? On the 22nd it was 22 days. Then 27, 28 and now 30!

Hey gathering from people's posts on here its likely that they consider travel dates when processing applications so fingers crossed they do yours this week. Its very strange that even with the US visa its taking this long!! Good luck, keep us posted..

I was just told today on the email that's currently a two week wait, which is highly inaccurate..

It was 27 days when I applied.
I was hoping for CAN+ as I already have US 10 year visitor visa. However this CAN+ scheme now seems to be just waste of time. I also hold valid France multiple visa for two years plus expired tourist visa from Germany & Sweden.

I don’t think they know what visa we have until they start the process as they were all attachments right?

I’m married to a French American citizen. Been in the UK for 13 years. I have Australian visa, US, Irish, at least 5 expired Swiss, French, Spanish schengen visa.

Thinking of going to Canada House on Thursday or Friday.

I think you are right. It does make sense about visas being checked after they open the file.
I’m not sure whether they let visa applicants to enter Canada House. But you can try and see how it goes. Please let us know about your visit as it might also help other applicants like me.
