[navnit.lal]

Any updates? I see some of the October applicants got PPR within couple of weeks of applying from India.

AOR - Oct 25
BIL - Oct 25
BIL Completed - Nov 04
PPR - Nov 13

Applied for parents from India.

One question - I mentioned the duration of stay as 2 months in the invitation letter. Will the TRV also have only 2 month validity? Worried on this as my situation is changed and I may need them for 6 months.

Probably! But were they approved just coz I gave 2 months of itinerary? Will they get TRV only for 2 months?

Not sure based on the current restrictions, it might depend. What was their purpose of visit?

Could you please include the validity and entry permissions your parents received when they obtained their passports in this thread? Thank you! I am in a similar situation. My parents applied for first-time visitor visas to Canada for a family visit, but they haven't received any status updates since their biometrics appointment. They submitted their application for a one-month visit in December. If the process gets delayed, we are considering submitting a web form to change our travel dates and the duration of their stay. Additionally, they travelled to the UK this year.

I saw in the other thread that we can see the visa validity in our tracker after we get PPR. So, as per that I have our visitor visa's number and expiry mentioned. The expiry is Oct 2034, which is the passport expiry date. So, expecting the same to be stamped.
