Thanks! The officer did not tell me anything like that. I guess once you become a PR, you can study, live, work anywhere in Canada. I am not familiar about this concept of living for 3 years in the province that nominates a person.

Thanks Curiousguy :)

I would like to share my landing experience. We took a rental car from Boston to Montreal last night. Reached Vermont/Quebec border (St Armands/Philipsburg) at around 10.30 PM in the night. We drove up to the booth on the car lane, and told the officer that we are here to land as PRs. He asked...

Its seems that 4 weeks from the time CPP ottawa receives our passports is the current waiting time for PP returns. Don't worry, you will get back yours within this time.

Sure, no problem.

Do you live in the US? If yes, then your passport must be on its way now. I got mine after 4 weeks. (3 weeks processing+ 1 week mailing time) through regular mail.

Thank you all for your good wishes :) I wish you all the very best.

I know, right? I am still surprised. CPP ottawa is full of surprises.

The date of issue on visa and COPR is 25th April 2013, which is strange because we got our passport request on 26th April 2013, and Ottawa received our PPs on May 2, 2013. I think they work in mysterious ways :) The expiry of visa is 19th November 2013.

Just received our passports :D They sent it by regular mail, did not use the UPS return envelope I had included. Planning to land in 2 week's time. Thank you all for all your support and guidance. I will keep you posted regarding my landing experience. We are planning to land by car, at the...

Hi Joydeep, I am in the US and I had sent husband's and my passports via UPS, and included a return envelope as well. But I heard that they wont use the return UPS or Fedex included to return the pps to US, instead they will send it via regular canada post mail. (check out forum member...

Got this email from CPP ottawa. IS this a good sign? Can I believe them?!! Dear Sir/Madam, Your application has been finalized and your passport is now being returned to you. If you have included a prepaid Xpresspost return envelope, your passport has been returned using this envelope. If...

Are you in the US? Maybe they have already sent your passport, but it takes almost a week to get it in the US.

Thanks Viber. Hope they have already send it to us, maybe we will receive the passports by the end of the week or early next week here in the US.

Home Address: Just Montreal, Quebec, Canada. Thats it. Mailing Address: My full USA address, with street, apt, and postal code. I think having 2 addresses in your Ecas might be a good sign for those of us waiting for the PPs.
