Hello everyone,

Since a lot of us are getting PPR from London, I guess it’s time we created a timeline for passport stamping so we know how long it takes.

My timeline via two-way courier in UK.

Passport picked up 15/04/24
Delivered at VFS 16/04/24
Dispatched to IRCC 17/04/24
Under process at IRCC 18/04/24
Eligibility Reviewed on portal 18/04/24

So waiting . Not sure what the eligibility bit means since my final decision was approved on 11/04/2024

@Naturgrl sorry to tag you here but you’re very knowledgeable with IRCC stuff. Is this normal?
