it is advisable for people to apply ahead of their trip, infact for Canada i usually suggest two to three months before application, but then the ECOs are unpredictable, some work faster than others so it all depends, also in case of eventualities or should the applicant need to retrieve his or her passport they do give 2 - 3 working days and your passport will be returned although they will stop processing it(i will confirm if they still do it but they used to). Anyways just want you to know that some of us are not just talking but actually have hands on experience. [/i]
