This is posted at Vienna's main site!
Does anyone know if they will transfer outstanding files to Belgrade? Any idea?



Important announcement


The visa application centre (VAC) in Belgrade, Serbia, is now open and ready to accept applications! Find out how to submit your temporary resident or permanent resident travel document application through the VAC. Visit the CIC website for more information on VACs.

More VACs coming to the Balkans

VACs will also be opening in Sarajevo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Pristina, Kosovo, Skopje, Macedonia and Podgorica, Montenegro, later this year. Updates will be provided when available.

Sorry to disappoint you - but they won't transfer PR applications there. Vienna might get a little faster at PR because they won't have to deal with everything, but the PR applications can not be processed at VAC - Visa Application Centers.

they only deal with temporary residents (study permit, visitor visa etc.) AND travel documents for PRs - but that's not the same as PR applications. Travel documents for PRs are if a PR lands in Canada, is from a non-visa-exempt country, go outside of Canada and needs to travel back to Canada. If the person doesn't have the PR card (since it takes a little over 70 days to get one these days), he will need a travel document confirming his status so that the airline will let him board the plane (pretty much the same way non-visa-exempt applicants get a visa and a COPR).

Good luck!

Hi Sweden

My disappointment would have been if the opposite happened. Vienna is the slowest VO on record hehehe ( at least in my record) but I would hate to have my files transferred to anywhere now. That's because of the problems a move like this would bring.

Thank you for clearing this out dear Sweden
