Canadian tourist visa for US stamping

[rkakani]

Hello All,

Have anyone tried approaching any visa service agencies for getting Canadian tourist visa? I live in South, and I do not have any Canadian consulates near by and I need to fly and take off for couple of days for applying one. I could do by mail, but it may take time. So just wondering, if anybody had taken any professional services who could attempt to get the visa stamped with Canadian tourist visa, in a couple of weeks time. I need to get my canadian tourist visa at the earliest, as I have H1B stamping scheduled on early next month. If yes, please suggest few.

Thanks

Kakani.

It takes a maximum of 3 weeks to receive your passport if you send it by mail. If you're too far from a consulate, my advise is to send your application by mail ASAP instead of using a professional service firm

Hi Deedee, thanks for replying. I'm planning to attend in person, at Los Angeles consulate of Canada, next week. Do you know, how long would it take, to get the passport back, if attended in person. Would it still takes three weeks ?

Hi, are you referring to E&GVisaservices in Rockville. How was their service ?

Also, I'm not sure, if it is relevant to you, as I'm not aware of your status in USA, but is I-797 original is needed or a copy of it would work. I have a soft copy, but still waiting for hard copy of it. So, wondering, if I can attend for interview with a copy of I-797B instead.

Thanks

my experience with E&GVisaservices was very good, i got the visa stamped in 1 week (rush processing). I just mailed them the documents that were mentioned on their website. For CA visa we dont need send any originals, copies are good enough

Just go to Los Angeles Canadian consulate and they will give you the visa and your passport back the next day. I had mine in 1 day.
