Sounds like you're approved and are just waiting on the fee to be paid before you get your visa.

i believe most offices only return items that are originals... if you provided anything that was obviously a printout of digital copy, or a photocopy, it might not come back to you... we got back all original items but none of the dozens of pages of printouts...

congrats...

Returning your pictures is a good sign, asking for payment is also a good sign....but it does not mean that all is well. But it is getting close.

If he's talking about his RPRF (right of permanent residence fee) - I don't think they would ask for that unless he was approved.

I agree with Giggles. Mine were color xeroxes, were not returned.

I don't care if I get anything back.. pictures 15c each at COSCO x 106 pictures = $15.90, Holding my Wife... Priceless :)

Well I have read in many posts the depending on the office you sometimes get everything back - the actual forms. Seems most people get at least there original set of pictures back, some say they did not get any additional pictures they sent in back but again I only reprinted the ones I needed and for me not worried about it as I like 5x7's rather then the 4x6's I sent in.

Hi

what is the meaning if they return back all pics( not emails and bills copy)

and asked landing fee?
Hey Rajeev returning pics pretty much means your visa is more than likely ready and they do not require any further evidence, do you mind sharing your timeline?

I have not had anything returned as yet but did get asked for RPRF...Which I had already paid a few days earlier and just had to send the receipt..a week later I got PPR via email and was given a date in which I had to land by!! I dont think CIC requests payments that they Know have a high chance of being refunded!! Its a VERY good sign that you have been approved!

CIC New Delhi does background check after asking for RPRF and the passport. My case officer at CIC New Delhi told me that once i had send my passport in and called them asking why was it taking so long.
