Hello everyone. Kindly help with my dilemma. I submit my POF document to ircc but I got a mail from them later saying the document was not received and I need to send my updated POF document.
I initially submitted a POF containing my liquidation of investment but I'm unable to get supporting document like a Certificate of liquidation. Is it okay to do a gift deed at this point and submit as my POF?

It’s pretty bad service. I told them early on in the process that I don’t receive SMS notifications and they answered me back that I need to submit them a consent form to talk to them via email, which is the same form we submitted physically with the VFS package. Then they asked me to show proof thar I paid for SMS service, something they could have checked by entering my VFS tracking number in their computer, but no - they wanted me to send them the transfer proof with the VFS invoice second time around. And then they said “OK, you’re signed up”. And nothing. And each time I reminded them - there was no reaction.
Absolutely terrible service. Just terrible!

Hi Oluwabusolami,

I think this question might best be suited for this group:

I hope you find a solution.

hello guys, i submitted my passport two days ago and made payments for one way courier and attached payment evidence. I got email from vfs london yesterday acknowledging receipt and transmission of documents to IRCC for each family member. Then a seperate mail from them attaching invoice and detailing the payments required which i have done but in the section of fees collected , it's nil. Also are my dependent kids supposed to pay transmission fees since we submitted the same vfs i and my spouse gave biometrics and the biometrics fees paid initially is for family.I saw this as additional fees in the invoice attached. Anybody with such experience/clarification

Vfs misplaced my paid return envelope. Just insane!!! Luckily my partner was in London so I booked her to pick it up. The nightmare is over. Absolutely terrible service. The worst

Unfortunate. Always best to just pay the return fee and let them use their courier to return documents. I think they will on purpose not use your return envelope because they might have to book collection.

Update...

COPR for 2 dependants received today 29.05.23 (delivered by DHL).
Hopefully, you will receive the details of the remaining two today. One question: When you submitted the application, did you pay the service fees for one-way courier for one envelope or for 4 envelopes (each one of you separately)?

I have received notification for dispatch of the remaining 2. So it's on its way. Should get both by tomorrow .
I paid courier service charges for individual 4 separately.
