I know some friends that went through the refugee process and they were able to get their seize documents once they got their PR, they just needed to make an appointment to the Mississuaga Office here inToronto and picked it up a couple days later.

But if you are far away? Imagine like me in AB. Just to pick some documents that will be only for memories as you never can use them again.

I sugest, yo can fill a webform. Requesting for them.
I did it; they said by email: someone will contact me after a decission is made
let´s see. But for example, in my case, Im not going to Mississauga, Im in AB, it´s too much expensive, they can send by mail if they are willing to return it.
