Congratulation ;D

Could you please send me their number?
Hi Johan,

You can get their number from this website
www.vfsglobal.ca/canada/UAE

I am not sure if they will entertain those who have applied outside Abu Dhabi as in my case they were my direct contact and i applied on 24 April from Abu Dhabi vfs office and told them that they have exceeded the maximum recommended weeks.

4. Application Status: Under Process

When I was applying, they told me that the application would take about 8 weeks. Reason for delay in my application was the acceptance from UNB.

I am working in UAE and I would need to complete all my procedures (quit job/house rental etc.) only after the visa is stamped. Don't know how thats going to be done in time. :eek: :-\

They tell everyone that the processing time is 8 weeks. It's not true. The processing time according to the CIC website is 11 weeks.
I got mine in exactly 11 weeks and 5 days. I doubt you'll get yours in time. Have you thought about deferring your admission to the next semester?

Applying this late probably won't get you a response before the semester starts. If you're application is processed at the Abu Dhabi office it's best to apply latest by mid-June to get a response in time. Anything after that there is no guarantee.

Got rejected after 3 weeks. Reasons for refusal are; travel history, purpose of visit and not a bonafide student. I was accepted to UBC for masters.
