Hello,
I just want to share my application timeline to you.
Feb 20th: submitted application online and received confirmation letter after a few minutes
Feb 25th: received passport request letter
Feb 25th: sent my passport to VAC in NYC (I live in New York State)
Feb 26th: passport delivered according to USPS tracking
Mar 2nd: VAC confirmed receiving my documents (I believe they didn't open my package till then)
Mar 3rd: passport transited to visa office
Mar 5th: case closed showing approved
Mar 9th: passport transited to VAC
Mar 10th: VAC sent my passport back
Mar 11th: received my passport with a 8-year visitor visa (which expires one day before my passport expiration)
My timeline is faster than I expected, about 3 weeks in total. Hope you also can get your visa(s) soon!
PS: no one contacted me about my VAC tracking number, I called them to get it.
