How long will it take to process my application?
Processing times are difficult to predict. They vary depending on the type of application you submit and the number of applications currently being processed.How are processing times calculated?
Citizenship and Immigration Canada (CIC) calculates processing times from the day CIC receives an application to the day it makes a decision on the application.When estimating how long you will wait to receive a temporary visa, you must also take into account up to 10 days of transit or delivery time on top of CICβs processing time. The time your application will spend travelling to and from CIC will vary depending on where you live.
