I just received the PR visa from Detroit. It only took a week for processing. For those who have already got the passport request from Detroit, maybe it is faster if youe make your submission to the Windsor,ON post box.

22.08.2012: submitted to Windsor through express post
30.08.2012:received the PR visa.
Congrats Dothk. I see that in your status list, LANDED is still missing. Aren't you in Canada atm. What is meant by LANDED here. Thanks

Is there a deadline dothk, by which date you need to land? I think if the date it 1 year from medical, and as your medicals are expiring they gave your case preference and sent it asap.

I agree, Detroit is very close to Windsor.

That was a start :). Next weekend is long weekend, may not see any ppr next Tuesday as well. Hopefully processing will speed up in September. If you see the trend in Seattle, it takes 4 months to finalize the transferred cases and most of us transferred on July 7 to Ottawa. The problem is the long wait, its killing me.

Tell me about it.. 4 months from July is november! I hope that atleast by november we hear something! It already has been 2 months.. Usually Ottawa reviews a file after 2 months. I think it will be a good idea to get GCMS after Sept 7th. I wouldnt be even surprised if people start getting to In Process this month..
