Does anyone know if you can submit passport in a VAC in a country other than the country you applied from? I applied from the US but I'm afraid it will take too long to send my passport to VAC in NY and get it back. I haven't received BVL yet though. (I noticed I have the biometrics number now. What does this mean??)
Did you receive approval?

Yes once your visa is approved you can submit it to any VAC in the world. Someone posted recently that they applied for ICT work permit and submitted their passport at VAC NY and got it back within 2 weeks

Dear All

I have an approved GTS LMIA and done with my biometrics on 9th March 2020 for closed work permit outside Canada from India.
The Application shows under processing due to the current circumstances of Covid-19.

Has anyone received work permit approval recently when applied for closed work permit during time frame of Feb-March.
I applied around that time no reply
