Thanks One_Topsy,

You know your stuff.........even the websites you gave have everything......PA can land alone first if he/she wants OR can choose to go at one time and land with all accompanying dependents OR can leave the dependents briefly behind,then they can follow as long as their Visas are still valid.

Anybody out there who has a doubt about this?

Thanks again One_Topsy.

One_Topsy is right. Dependants can not land *before* PA, but there is no requirement for dependants to land at the same time as PA. they can follow later.

However, they (dependants) must land before expiry date on COPR/visa.

Hello Guys,

I just want to confirm if my understanding is correct. My situation is the reverse. The Canadian Embassy in the Philippines sent my PPR letter last Jan 7.
However, I'm currently in Canada for a vacation until March. It is ok to just proceed to send my passport in CPC-Ottawa?
I saw in the letter that this could be done if the applicant is currently in Canada.
I wrote an email already to the LVO asking for a confirmation whether I can proceed to send to Ottawa but haven't receive any response yet.

Thanks for any response.

Just received PPR! Can I go ahead and submit my passport to the Ottawa Office since I am in Canada while I await instructions on how to submit my dependents passport to their local visa office?
Hey Guys

My boyfriend got PPR and he submitted the request for a change of visa office given myself and the kids are not in Canada. can anyone say if he can go ahead and submit his document without the request for the change of VO for us . His work permit has now expired so we eagerly await a response from CIC .

Hi Guys, joining this thread. Can someone please let me know what is the estimated time taken by CPC Ottawa to change VO after PPR? I emailed them a week ago and no response. Also, I did not include my application number in the subject line but have included it in the body of the email. Should I send them another email in this case or just wait?

I sent an email as was stated in my PPR. Sent another reminder email yesterday. I was looking at other threads and they usually take about 2 weeks to get back. Just sent a follow up email yesterday. Hoping to get it changed by end of next week

Thanks Saahil88 for the information. I will be traveling this month end and plan to submit CSE informing the address change. If by the time i get my PPR if new address is not reflected then will send out mail (as you did) asking for VO change and then will submit passport accordingly.
Is there any specific format you sent out e-mail to them on VO change??

Thanks and All the best
