Fishies ! Has anyone been to Canada for visa stamping recently ? I’m worried about “admin processing” delays as I don’t have any friends in Canada to stay with if I’m stuck waiting for my passport..

Yeah it’s very likely. So you should re-think about this plan.

I'm in the same boat and had a recent thread on it. Just search for a post from yesterday or day before on this bowl.

My conclusion -- admin processing chances are the same in any consulate and higher than a few years ago. Just carry every document that has your name on it. I'm going to Toronto in a few weeks.

Any update on your experience?

Kindly suggest ways to look for the opportunities onsite. I'm not sure if my current project/organization has any opportunity in upcoming 2-3 years.
Do suggest country, company (preferably providing Visa Sponsorship) or any leads.

Thanks in advance!!
P. S. : I don't have any Visa stamped. Need your expertise to kick start the onsite journey.

This may be an elementary question, but my credit score just randomly dropped 20 points. I keep my utilization very low. Almost all of my financial transactions are on my credit card, and I pay everything off by each statement. One month I didn’t get a chance to pay everything off because there were some transactions made on my statement date that I was not able to pay off because they were listed as pending. This resulted in my utilization going up to 6%. My credit score did not change (cont).
