What affects processing time?

· Embassy backlog and seasonal volume (peaks in May–August and December).
· Whether biometrics or interview are required (yes biometrics, no interview here).
· Document completeness — missing items can add 2–6 weeks.
· Whether premium / priority processing is available at the Canada embassy.
