Hi every1..
How much time it takes generally to process a paper application. I applied in first week of July at Vfs Delhi and recently linked it online. Can any1 give an estimate because the processing times keeps on changing. Can i contact anywhere to get the update about my status ?
Current processing time is 14 weeks so you fall in that.
If the processing time is passed then you can send CSE.

Hi friends ,
I am facing different case here.I got my SINP nomination in May 2016 and I applied for Work permit on based of SINP in the first week of July 2016.
I applied online and its been 13 weeks and i never heard anything from CIC regarding any inquiry or medical request.So my concern is that is anybody here in same situation as mine ? and how long it'll take them to finalize the application ? My application will be processed at Chandigarh I guess ?
Thanks in advance.

Hello guys,
I've applied for SOWP from Ahmadabad on Aug 16. My passport status has changed today from " Your application is being processed at VFS Bangalore' to "Passport has been collected from the Canada Visa Application Center". What does it mean ? If anybody knows here. Thanks for your time.

I think its generally indicate when passport going to return.Do you submit your medical before or not?
If yes then good news and if not then might be bad news.
Wait couple of days more.
Good luck.

I would suggest never go to this Overseas. Literally bunch of dumb ass there. They will keep asking you new docs each day you make visit instead asking all at once because they are not knowledgeable and do wok same like doing in Govt job. No customer service at all. It was just terrible experience!!!

Same like me and I need to remind them which documents were remain in file etc etc. They took more then 1 month to prepare whole file. Hope we get good response.
