TLDR : Answer Summary
Recent discussions indicate mixed experiences with visa processing times for applications from Ottawa, Canada. Some users report faster approvals, like one individual who was approved in just 9 days after applying at the end of August. In contrast, others have faced longer waits; one person mentioned applying on October 10 and still awaiting a response. Overall, the conversation highlights the variability in processing times.

Search the group... several posts about Ottawa and Vancouver. Someone recently posted that it's taking longer then expected.

thanks, I’ve searched the group and that recent post is the reason I wanted to get more info from others. Perhaps others were approved quickly in October, and only that individual got delayed. Thanks anyways.
