Friends,

I am based in Dubai, UAE. But I received email to send passports to Ottawa. Is it normal to send there and Is it safe.

Why they are not asking me to submit here in Canadian Emabssy, UAE.

That's unusual. I would try to contact cic by email/phone and let them know. If that doesn't work try contacting your nearest Canadian consulate. You have 30 days and should act fast.

Thanks Andy,

I have sent an email to CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca asking clarification. Hope to get response soon.

I think in your case, you will have to call the consulate in Dubai.

Just checked the cic website, it's mentioned if you applied from outside Canada you have to call home consulate.

Just mail Ottawa to have another PPR issued by your LVO (Dubai). The process takes about 10 working days.
