Applied through Mail for myself and my spouse, and my parents separately
Application Reached- May 17th
1st Email Sent -June 17th
2nd email sent -June 18th
1st reply received saying the application has been finalized -Jun 18th
2nd reply received saying that they have sent the documents back on June 18th- June 19th
Received my parents' stamped visa and documents-June 19th by priority USPS(I had sent a self addressed stamped envelope)

Our documents haven't arrived yet though. I dont know the status of my visa yet.

I had specified in the email that my parents need the passport as they have to go back to India soon . I dont know if I should assume that they sent only their documents as they understood the exigency of the situation.
All I can say is, I was wrong in thinking that they wont take any action. In fact they replied to every single mail I had sent. I had only specified that application number and they were kind enough to request me that in future, I should specify the full name and date of birth.
There are Good Samaritans everywhere as the total turnaround time was 30 days.

I submitted my Intra company transfer application and passport through mail to Canada consulate in NY. Application reached them on April 8th, its now 11 weeks and I haven't received my passport yet. Anyone who submitted their application through mail during that time? Any help appreciated.

Me and my wife applied together through "family application" for a singe entry visitor visa:

5/15 - Online Application for Transit visa. Received individual confirmations for both of us.
6/10 - Request for passport for both of us
6/11 - Sent passports to New York
6/12 - Passports received in New York.
6/20 - Priority mail tracker activated
6/22 - Passports received.

Other details. It was very hard to find these things online and I saw some post about this earlier and that post was useful to me. Hope this post is useful to others :

1. I sent both of our passports in the same envelope to NY Consulate
2. I sent only ONE return envelope
3. I used PRIORITY return envelope instead of the Express one (Priority gets you the package in 2 days and costs $6 while Express gets it to you in 1 day and costs $20)
4. I have my old expired passport and a new one. I sent only my new valid passport for stamping. No need to send in all passports.

My timeline:

Applied Online: July 13
Confirmation message: July 13

Since than I haven't received any message. I have my traveling dates set for August 12th, now I am not sure what to do. Application processing time at New York consulate is 21 days and it has already been 24 days since I submitted my application. I also want to change my address as I moved out but I waiting for the Passport request and I will update my address later.

Canadian embassies are working really slow, no replies to my emails as well.

Really depressed :( :( :(

visitor Visa:

Applied Online : 30 Aug
PP Request : 17 Sep
PP sent to NY : 20 Sep
PP received at NY : 24 Sep

No passport yet!

I used UPS to send my passport and also the return envelope enclosed is UPS.
I am not sure if they have a problem with private couriers and if they have sent it thru regular mail(w/o tracking) because of that?

Same here. Looks like its taking more than 32 days as stated in the CIC website.
Most likely I have to cancel my tickets.
