Did the DHL or CSC sites tell you anything last night? Ours didn't, but our visa was only issued on Monday, whereas they told you it would be shipped yesterday.

Mine was issued Monday June 6 and nothing shows up either on CSC or DHL.ca. I called DHL yesterday and they explained that they pick the visas at the consulate during the day and the truck leaves for its destination around 7-8 PM. It's ready for pickup the following morning.

AplusJ : I know how you feel and I hope you get good news soon :)

Congrats to everyone who has gotten their visas! So exciting :)

I just got off the phone with DOS again and I am so frustrated! Its been almost a month since I was approved at the interview and nothing is happening. The DOS lady said there are no problems that she can see with our case, and that no documents are needed or anything like that, but its just being slow to process. AHHHHHH!! I am so frustrated, i feel like I could just start crying right now.

That is so frustrating! At least they should be able to give you more information on why it is taking so long. If everything is normal they should have done it by now!! Keep us updated.

I recieved an email june 6 (monday)and it says may visa was sent late last week.Till now no waybill number yet.

Wherever it was sent, it had to be there now. I would go to the branch you signed up at. DHL would take a max of two days to get from Dorval to anywhere within this side of Canada

When did u get your email, im hoping to get one too, just not sure if its too late already

I got the email around 6:50 PM last night. It was first scanned at 6:43 PM.

When I talked to DHL earlier this week, the operator told me the visas are picked up during the day and on the road to the DHL branch by 7 or 8 PM that same day. Mine transited through Dorval and has now reached its destination. CSC website has also update to show the waybill.

I hope you gets yours quickly!
