LA VAC Processing time

[Frannie2790]

I don’t think we know current timelines, given how few recent posts we have for this thread. You might be our current benchmark. Thank you for posting! Hopefully yours arrives quickly.

I just got an email stating my desicion letter for PR has been couriered from Los Angeles and will be here tommorow morning.

Any updates? My timeline:

CEC Outland
AOR - 12/4/2023
FD/PPR - 4/12/2024
Received and under processing at IRCC office LA - 4/18/2024

No updates after that.

Hey! My Passport was also received at the IRCC office on the same day. Please post here if you get any further updates. I'll do the same!

Based on some of the other comments, it looks like an average of 1.5 months to process, so I expect end of May or early June for ourselves

No updates for me still. Lets keep this thread updated if and when we hear anything

Based on some of the previous cases and my own application process from before, they seem to be operating on exact timelines: 1 month and 15 days (+-1). I expect mine (Received by IRCC on April 18) to be processed on/by next Tuesday. If that happens then everyone can expect the same

Still no update on VFS portal.

Just to confirm, Expiry date is the date before which I need to enter Canada right? (CoPR date)

Got the following update today from VAC (06/03/2024):

The decision envelope for your application, tracking ID No. XXXXXXXXXX has been dispatched from the IRCC Office, to the Canada Visa Application Centre in Los Angeles.

My IRCC profile is already showing the final decision as 'Approved' since (05/30/2024)

Got the package in mail today but it wasn't without it's share of misadventures. We opened the envelope using scissors which essentially ripped the top section of my wife's COPR

When we got over that and started reading through the document, we realized it contained multiple errors.

1. My wife's gender is mentioned as "Male"
2. Our application category is mentioned as "SW1" (On passport it is correctly stamped as IM-1)
3. Country of issue of my passport is wrongly entered as India. It should have been USA since I had it renewed and issued at Houston
4. Country of residence is misspelled as "United States of Americ"
5. My wife's medical record is not updated. It is still showing her old IME number from 2022 on COPR. Our IRCC profile has updated IME number from 2023 test results.

Please suggest what would be the best course of action to get this resolved at the earliest as we were planning to enter Canada by early September.
