Applying for tourist visa from Canada
 

Applied for a tourist visa through the BLS office in YYC yesterday and was told it will be 10-12 business days vs the 5-7 on their website. I fly out in 14 business days so I'm a little nervous that this is cutting it too close. Does anybody have any recent experiences applying for tourist visas in Canada to know what the realistic timelines are or how I could expedite the process?

little more info in the thread below although its about the us & not canada....however, you should get an idea of the timeline from this thread....the second half of the thread is about bls....
