Hello Sam,

Thanks . I'm unsure of the time given to submit PCCs for London VO. Most VOs understand genuine delays and do accommodate them if indicated early. Usually the deadlines are not set lesser than 30 days.

Thanks,

Indira Prabhakaran.

Friends

We received the passports with maple leaves a couple of days back

This forum made it possible and I'm so grateful to all of you. This forum and family here are a 'God Send' for me and I'd definitely want to be in touch with all of you for many more years to come..

I never thought I could apply all by myself and be successful in the first place.. Most of you here know me as a 'Senior' and a person who knows so much about FSW and immigrating to Canada that she started her own blog on immigration experiences to help spread the info around.. Let me me tell you I was a very different person 8 months back when i discovered his forum. All i had then was a 'Dream', a secret dream to live in Canada for the rest of my life.

This forum and friends here, gave me the courage to face it alone. I took a couple of months break from work and ran around to prepare the application. Those months were among the hardest and most sleepless for me .. One hurdle after another non stop and I must mention my thanks to Qorax, Anil and FMA for being around then to help me. For those of you wondering what I'm talking about, you might want to realize that I was among the very few people here with TOO MANY doubts and queries and so many silly fears but I did not hesitate to ask them here.. And yes, all my queries were answered right away and now my prayers are answered too..

I once again take this opportunity to thank every one of you for being around and helping people like me. This forum is all about people willing to help round the clock.

Hello Indira Prabhakaran,

Hope you are doing fine..!!

Congratulations, and I am very happy to read your forum. I appreciate if you can please help me about my case.

Me and my wife applied Canada PR (high skilled) on August 16,2010.  They received my application for permanent residence on September 15, 2010.

They reviewed my application and sent a letter on January 7, 2011

My application reviewed and we started processing on February 24, 2011

They send medical to me on march 8, 2011

I have complete my medical and sent to New Delhi on 22 March, 2011 (with passports)

They en cashed my draft (landing fee etc) on 31, March, 2011.

Now my online status coming: "In process" from last three months. I am waiting my passport.

Can you please convey me what is happening there, and how much time they can take yet.

Regards
Gurdev Singh

Thanks and congrats on your success so far

Unfortunately it takes anywhere between 20 days to 6 months for the passports to get stamped and returned, simply without any logic. Patience is the key. I know people who waited for 6 to 8 months and finally received it.

Please hang on and good luck to you

Thanks,

Indira Prabhakaran.
