We are candidates of Express Entry for Canadian Permanent Residency (Federal Skilled Workers and Provincial Nominee Applicants) which have been transferred to Vancouver Visa Office for months now and we have not seen tangible progress on our applications for over 3 to 4 months. This petition is an appeal to the relevant authorities to encourage Vancouver Visa Officers to start processing the outland applications. The delay is worrisome for the applicants who are patiently waiting to receive their approvals. By comparison, other visa offices such as Sydney, RROC, Ottawa and Montréal are processing applications at a much faster rate. Applicants who submitted their applications in January 2022 are currently receiving their approvals from these visa offices. Whereas, there are applicants waiting to receive approval from 2020 and 2021 from Vancouver Visa Office. Is Vancouver Visa Office a "parking space"?
