News From Canada Today brings a major update for Indian travellers as visa processing delays continue to grow. The average wait time for a Canadian visitor visa for Indian citizens has now reached 99 days, making it the longest among all major source countries.
The Super Visa, which is primarily for parents and grandparents of Canadian permanent residents, has also been hit with significant delays. Its average processing time has now stretched to 169 days, adding to the frustration of many families hoping to reunite.
According to Immigration News Canada, visitor visa applications from India are currently facing the longest wait period, reaching 99 days. The Super Visa processing timeline has also increased to 169 days, reflecting widespread backlogs.
IRCC data shows that these delays are mainly due to heavy application volumes, country-specific security checks, and limited processing resources available at visa offices.
For comparison, visitor visa processing times stand at 59 days for Pakistan and 67 days for Bangladesh.
This developing story continues to affect thousands of families, making it a key highlight in News From Canada Today.
