Pls don’t worry about this delay. There were lots of holidays within this timeframe. That could be a reason. They will ask applicant for more details if needed and then only they keep the file aside for reviewing on a later date. If you didn’t get any email after that just stay positive and wait for the surprise email. My friend got visa approval for their parents in 4 days. It all depends on the officer and when you applied. If the officer see everything handy and simple, and also if he or she is a fast decision maker you will get it soon otherwise they go with the flow. Keep checking emails and my cic account.
Thank you for your quick response.. hoping for the positive response ...

Hi All,

I have applied for visitor visa on 19th dec,2017. Its been more than one month i have not received any update. How much time does it usually takes?
I applied through agent by offline paper process.

Thanks.
First of all Good luck with your application. Application time varies for each applicant. It’s mostly a rough time frame that they have mentioned in website. It could take longer if they need more details. I have also read that it takes bit more time for younger applicants just because they have to make sure that applicant will not try to stay in Canada illegally or try to work on visiting visa. For older applicants like 50+ (this year mentioned is a rough number-not based on fact) they assume they won’t try to work or stay illegally. Same time our ties to the country of origin is a big factor they consider you going back to home country (like own business, house, good job, length of employment, family ties, submit a copy of leave application for job back home etc)

You can contact them through case specific inquiry system of IRCC. But doing this is not going to make any difference. If your application has passed the timeframe IRCC mentioned you can contact them by this way or even call their toll free number (not sure if it’s free when you call from outside Canada) and inquire about this. These emails and calls are attended by agents assigned by IRCC. They will notify your concern (If no update past timeframe, change in any information or status etc) to IRCC officers only if they feel it is valid and necessary. They won’t be able to tell us how much more time it gonna take or what’s going on with your file.

Hi, can I ask a question about the number 2 point - proof of fund? So far I know the visitors (in this case, your wife's parents) are supposed to show proof of fund. Did you have to submit your bank statement as well? Can you please make it clear?
Thank you.

As long as you have submitted a cover letter with valid reasons and fixed the reason for previous rejections it should be good I guess.

Hello,
It is hard to guess what’s going on with any application. If your application has past the timeframe you can contact IRCC and ask for status. What I recommend is always make sure every single possible questions from IRCC is clarified while you apply initially rather than waiting for them to ask. Always make sure we provide more than what is required. It is always best practice to try our best to get application approved by first time itself rather than taking chances and then later worrying and trying to fix errors. Even if we have to wait a week or more to get certain certificates (bank documents, birth certificate, marriage certificate) rather than applying with what we have and take chances.

Age is a big factor. More younger you are more at risk you are for the government. IRCC promotes permanent residency and Citizenship but they don’t want people staying in Canada illegally. We have to show we will always return to our home country so show more ties to home country

Hardeep,
IRCC applications are very straight forward. It is always better to submit applications by self. As you have applied through agents you would have to wait till your agent replies and if agent miss to reply to IRCC emails and follow up with requested documents there are always chances for rejection. As we all know there are good and bad agents around and no one will admit mistakes even if it happened from them. You can contact IRCC through toll free number from your country of residence and or submit case specific inquiry. If application has past timeframe mentioned in website you have the right to contact them. If your file is rejected you have the right to know why as well. If rejected you can always re apply but make sure you wait at least 3-6 months and make necessary efforts to correct the reason for previous rejection. There is no chance for luck here in immigration affairs. They admit people with no potential risk to the country.
