congrats so happy for you.

when did your BG went in progress?

not sure about personal visits but most of the ppl are using aramex and they say its cheaper than VFS and even faster.

hope that helps

+1 if it did
Thanks Future Canadian,

Will check with Aramex as well. VFS says its 160.25 per passport.

As for the BG, it went to in Progress when I got my PPR message.

(+1 duly added :) )

Can some one let me know how they sent passports to the embassy via Aramex? Do I just walk into an office and hand over the passports and ask them to deliver to the address mentioned in the PPR? I suppose I will have to purchase and include an AWB for the return. Can someone who has done this let me know the cost for 3 passports?

Thanks.

I got my PPR yesterday.

Have to send Passports to Abu Dhabi. Any idea whih is better/quicker? Aramex or VFS? In the PPR letter, it says I can visit the Embassy in Abu Dhabi, but only on Mondays and Wednesdays between 9:30 am and 11:00 am. Any idea if this is correct? I read on this forum that they don't accept personal visits anymore.
Way to go Hot2cold.

Congratulations! How long did it take for you from BG to PPR?

Firstly Congrats.

Use Aramex faster than VSF and also cheaper.

It costs me QR/- 360 (4 Passports) including return from Qatar. Aramex will keep return airway bill along with Passports

I have a query... Due to exhaustion of pages in my old passport i had applied for a new one. Today i got both my new passport and my PPR. Since its a new passport do i need to raise a CSE or sent both my passports directly to my visa office explaining the situation.

Please help... :(
Firstly, Congrats.

I believe you should raise CSE to include them to your application. Also, send to Ottawa.

When i submitted my Spouse and children renewed passports both sent to ADVO and Ottawa through CSE. Got reply within 7 days.

There you go! Well deserved Achievement. You were worrying over nothing. BTW, what are you still doing here? Go away! You don't belong here anymore. You should be packing and celebrating. Please, don't want to see you here again. Ha Ha Ha. Just kidding of course. We're all really happy for you mate.
