With effect from 1st July 2020, the IRCC (Immigration, Refugees, and Citizenship Canada) is resuming the processing of the online applications for visitor visas (including transit visas) and electronic travel authorizations (eTAs).

 

The government of Canada is easing out the measures taken for the recent pandemic gradually as the situation has improved a lot across the maple leaf country.

 

Canada Resumes eTA and Visit Visa processing

 

Ensuring the restarting of the application processing and making the final verdict on Visitor applications will help the Immigration Refugees and Citizenship Canada to make certain that processing times in months to come are not significantly impacted. Moreover, help fasten traveling to Canada, once all the travel restrictions across the globe are lifted.

 

The government also continues to process study permit and work permit applications (online submissions) along with the PR visa applications, to the degree it is possible. However, the paper applications for visitor visas, study permits, and work permits are on hold until further notice.
