Turnaround Time: Visa and Time

turnaround time: At the time you applied, the turnaround time for a decision was 90 days, but the local bureaucracy does not honour its timetable, according to NOW Magazine. In fact, Ontario Immigration website now says that processing is taking "longer than usual due to the large number of applications in our inventory."You are here on a student visa. While your application is being considered, you must maintain legal residence in Canada. You have made your application in good faith well before your visa is due to expire. As a law-abiding individual, you want to make sure you maintain legal status. However, while Ontario takes its time, your visa expiry date is getting closer. (www.immigrantscanada.com).
