My Canada visa application has taken more than six months after my biometrics. I’m from Ghana. Does it mean I will get approval?

It's understandable to be concerned about the long processing timeline for your Canadian visa application, especially since it's been over six months since your biometrics. While a lengthy processing time doesn't necessarily mean rejection, it also doesn't guarantee approval.

Here's a breakdown of the situation and what you can do:

Processing Times and Reasons for Delays:

• Increased Applications:  Canadian immigration authorities have been experiencing a surge in applications in recent times, leading to backlogs and longer processing times.
• Complexity of Application:  The complexity of your application or additional checks required (security, medical) can also contribute to delays.
• COVID-19 Impact:  Residual effects of the pandemic might still be affecting processing capacities.

Ghanaian Applications:  The official website of Canada (Canada.ca) allows you to check typical processing times for different visa types and nationalities [Canada.ca]. Unfortunately, these processing times are estimates and can vary depending on the factors mentioned above.
