Canada Visa

I have applied for Canada Intra Company Transfer work permit visa
Visa Applied online on Nov 20 2020
Biometric Done on Dec 11th 2020
Request Passport for Visa Stamping on Jan 11th 2021
Passport sent it to IRCC Ontario office on Jan13th 2021
Visa approved on February 8th 2021

Question: When I will receive my Stamped Passport? how many days it will take for stamping and send passport back?

How do I contact Ottawa IRCC office to get more any information on when I will receive my stamped passport?

I got my work permit approved but my son’s passport request is pending any one experienced the same , it will be helpful.If yes when will I get his approval ( 6 year old ) .

Thank you .

Hi,

I am from India, staying in the US on an H1B and my wife is on H4. We have a kid who is a US citizen. My company is applying for an ICT transfer to Canada. My company sent me the letter to submit my passport (both for me and my wife) for me for stamping.

I plan to move to Canada in April and was wondering what visa would be required for my son (us citizen)? Does he need a visa to go to Canada with me given that only essential travel is being allowed currently?

Thanks,
Ankur

We are a family of three (daughter is a US citizen), planning to travel to Canada by road

Following is our timeline as of Jan 21, 2021:
1. Biometrics Completed - Dec 1, 2020 (at NYC ASC)
2. Medical test results - Dec 19, 2020 (at NYC Albert Levy)
3. Medical Result approved - Dec 22, 2020
4. Waiting for Passport Request letter - checked Jan 20, 2020 (portal says: reviewing eligibility, no additional docs needed, background check being processed and application is in progress)

I was reading that the next step of receiving the approval letter is to request a two-way shipping label from VFS? Is there any way we can request a label before receiving the approval (assuming that the application is approved?) as it may save some time.

Your help is really appreciated. Thanks

Has anyone recently travelled from USA to Canada on Work Permit(intra company trasfer via land or airline)?

Below is my experience on getting Canada WP.
1. 15-Dec - Biometric completed
2. 12-Jan - received letter to submit passport
3. 15-Jan - Submitted passport
4. Waiting for passport

Please let me know if you need any info on approval process. I am looking for info if anyone travelled on WP from USA To Canada

Hi All,

Do we have anyone in this group whose WP was filed in GSS category from US to Canada and can suggest average processing time in these current delays? I have seen some posts where regular ICT WP has taken around 2 months to get passport request. So probably GSS ones can be faster, any suggestions would be helpful.

I applied Canada WP from USA, here are the dates:

1. Application sent - October 8, 2020
2. Biometric completed - October 20, 2020
3. Approval and Passport request received - Dec 21, 2020
4. Sent request to VFS for shipping label - Dec 29, 2020 (Delay on my end as I went down to NY CVAC office but they declined in-person dropping of passport)
5. Payment link received - Jan 7, 2021

Completed payment and now Waiting for shipping labels.

Can someone suggest that shipping label is sent via email or by post? And how much time could it take for passport to be returned with stamp? I am sending it to New York CVAC. I heard they are quite slow, already experienced delay in providing payment link.

Hi All,

Need your suggestions, my WP is applied at NY office on Dec 18th in GSS category which gives 14 days processing time, lawyer also said that this might not be entertained due to COVID and normal 15 weeks processing time as per CIC website might apply. My US max out date is April 30, 2021.

Do you guys think I can get the WP ready to move to Canada before that based on current processing times? If it delays further do i have option to stay back to wait for a bit to avoid unnecessary travel to India in COVID times.

Thanks in advance for providing inputs.

Hi, I'm travelling with my family to Canada from the USA. Would like to check if there are any additional support / exemption documents to be carried for my kid who is a US passport holder. Anyone who travelled from the USA to Canada in the recent COVID situation with their US born kid... pls share your experience if they asked you for any additional documents/ exemption letter for your kid at Canada POE.

Thank you for your inputs!!.
