That's great. you can call VFS and ask if your passport has been dispatched. I guess you should get an email from them. But calling wont do any harm.

hi ifymeme, every application is different and on its own merits.with a simple request, the VO already knows about your US history and may have foreseen this plan you just concluded on. you mentioned you applied via paper route meaning your passport is included in your application. the VO will see the US visa and note that. however, a US visa will not guarantee a canadian visa(should influence but not guarantee) whether used or not. i know people personally who have valid US visas, traveled multiple times before applying for a canadian TRV and it was refused. dont stress it, VOs understand plans change. last year, i had planned in an application to visit saskatoon and Calgary international as my POE. work happened and i didnt have any space. eventually traveled november via Pearson intl in Toronto on egyptair because lufthansa wanted to kill me with pricing on the calcary route.
my opinion is, your application has already been made, you cant really change it. just keep your fingers crossed,regret nothing and pray it goes well so you can cross over and over in Niagara falls and chop life.
alternatively, you can email them about this new plan and its details and see how that goes. best of luck

Hello all, and congrats to everyone that got approved. This waiting is really tiring, I can't even apply for my study permit cos I'm scared that if I apply for it, we might be denied the visit visa. Really wish I knew circumstances or reasons for delay.

dear deejay102, ties to home country are what VOs are looking out for. it is good to be honest here but a VO is specifically trained to weigh your connection to your home country and the reason for your visit and judge if the applicant will come back. i neither know how they're trained nor how they judge circumstances around an application but you already have doubts. this means your application will most likely be refused. your ties are limited and apparently the most important thing/person in your life now is in canada. the VO knows about this.
why would you want to stay back on a visit visa anyway? this is the 21st century and things dont work easily that way anymore. you cannot work legally on a visit visa and canadians are too loyal as they will ask to see a work permit even for the flimsiest of jobs. you dont have medicals covered as a visitor and as an overstay, if you get into a situation and end up in a hospital, it may be from there to detention then airport for deportation. if you hear police siren, you heart will skip. you cannot open a bank account or dive a car because once you get pulled over its a problem and if you eventually get deported, you can kiss Canada, US, UK, Australia and Newzealand bye for at least 5 to 10 years as they use a very cooperative immigration history system.
my advice is to clear your doubts before applying. if your nysc is significant, use it as a tie. if the land can be yours or shown to be yours in the future, get documented evidence. maybe finish nysc and get a job, preferably in line with what you studied and work for a while. maybe have your wife visit again and take more pictures with a camera that imprints date in pictures. also have pictures from her previous visit and the wedding. you have a great burden to overcome so throw at it all the evidence you've got. relevant evidence i mean.
best of luck.you need it.
