Avg time for Canadian Visa - NY Consulate

[kaushika]

Hi folks,

If you have mailed your Canadian Visitor visa application to the Consulate in New York, please respond with how long it took you to get it back. It has been about 2 weeks since I mailed them and havent heard back yet.

Thank you,

Kaushik

Their website states 15 business days i.e 3 weeks plus add few more days for mail so I would give it a month approximately.

Hi Koushik,

we are in the same boat. i sent it 2 weeks back and still waiting for the passport. I heard the processing time will take littlebit more(3-4weeks) in newyork consulate when compared to other consulates.

I sent a email to consulate yesterday requesting status of my file. i didn't get any reply back. still waiting :(

I hope we will get it by middle or end of nextweek.

cheers

Just be aware that the Canadian consulate in NY took about two weeks to process my temporary visitor visa. I received my Canadian visa this week.

Hi,

I have submitted my TRV application at the Canadian consulate in New York on Monday, 20th August 2012.

I was told that the decision will be announced on Thursday, 23rd August 2012.

The only reason for me to come to New York all the way from Iowa was to get the passport as soon as possible. I'm now concerned about my passport as I do not have any track of it. I was not even given any receipt at the consulate after submitting my application for TRV.

I have submitted a paid USPS return envelope to be mailed to me as I cannot go to the consulate on Thursday.

Even I am planning to visit consulate in New York to get my passport, as do not have any proof of my application (like receipt #) what should I say there? What all details or documents they may ask me to provide?

Any Help truly appreciated.
