One of our family friend came to us and he also confirmed that there were some issues in may june july which cause this chaos. But he was surprised that this type of waiting never happens before.
He also sponsored Super visa for his parents in march and application is still under process which is very worried too.

You can and you can also add your expected plan in your letter for better understanding.
Hi. Thankyou so much. With your guide I was able to apply the visitor's visa today.
The average processing time they say is 18 days. Is that true?
May I know your time line and your reason to visit Canada?

Thanks

Great and most welcome.
My time line is
Appied paper based VfS Lahore: 15 Sep 17.
Biometrics: Same day.

I linked my paper base application with Gc key on 28th sep 17 and since then background checks.
My status shows updated twice but details always remains the same.

The time i applied was to attend the Convocation of my sister in Toronto on 12th oct. Now she got good job and waiting for my decision as well as her passport for approved new TRV inside canada after Work permit.

Yes processing time is 18 days and by mistake if they put application in BG then 3-6 months,

Ohhhh... That is unfair really. Background checks wasting precious time of people. I'm shocked to read this.
I hope you get the good news very soon.
Have you lived in many countries or anything which may trigger a long BGC process?
