[cnatar02]

can somebody give me a timeline if one is applying from india, at the canadian consulate in new delhi. i know as a rough estimate that it takes about 3-4 years now. but can someone who has applied or knows someone who has applied, give me some actual timelines for one applying in india now?

3 years.

Well, unfortunately people, who applied from India are not accessing this site much. But, I know one case, applied 1 year back. Only File # came out and process started in april 2003. It seems, it takes 3 years.

 

[cnatar02]

so one can expect atleast the file number to come in about 3 months time. is that correct?

Yes.

Appplied in November 2002, Process started in April 2003. Means, file # received in between. Around Feb 2003. Yes, yo ucan say 3 months from india.
