Fed ex tracting active - April 19 2022 Passport/COPR received - April 20 2022

I do not have anyone else on my application. Just to be safe I'd suggest sending all the photos and put in a letter written on blank paper explaning. The VAC will verify the photos and use the correct ones. I got mine from Walgreens who can print the Canada passport photos but we'll have to cut...

COPR cannot be extended. I belevie the COPR is usually 1 year from the medical expiration date and maybe 6 months if they extended medicals. My original medicals was Oct 2020. I also did an upfront remedical which was updated in my portal. My upfront was in Feb 2022 and my COPR is until Feb 12...

Got an update: Portal updated with counterfoil - April 18 2022. (Valid till Feb 12 2023) Decison Envelope return to VFS - April 18 2022 @bmthanki

Yeah, that is all you have to do. Also tell them it's an upfront one.

I think their H1-B is an initial H1-B that would only be active from Oct this year even if processed in premium and approved.

@PauR20 Did you receive your passports back? Were there any updates after March 25?

1. The address on the MO is your address. 2. Since I got my photos taken from Walgreens, I was given their photo envelope that i just dropped into the fedex package just so they don't get damaged. If you can put them in a small envelope and label it that should be fine.

Yes. Even though I made a mistake by sending the US size photos in my original envelope, the photos should be in the packet. The link above has all the items that need to be part of the packet. Don't forget to include the Money order, proof of purchase of 2 way courier, 2 TT consent forms signed...

@bmthanki You can do it yourself instead of waiting for their reply by following the steps here: https://visa.vfsglobal.com/usa/en/can/news/reopening-notice

I'm not 100% sure but I vaguely remember reading that COPR cannot be extended. I belevie the COPR is usually 1 year from the medical expiration date and maybe 6 months if they extended medicals. My original medicals was Oct 2020, if IRCC uses that I beleive I'll have until Oct 2022. I also did...

Nope. No progress yet. Still with IRCC. It's been more than a week now and they are closed this friday. Hopefully I get something by Thursday.

Yeah. I printed the email and filled out my details and used that as Passport Request Form to apply from New York VAC.

The status usually doesn't change until the counterfoil is generated in the passport/your passport copy has been verified if you are from a visa excempt country. My passport is with IRCC since March 31 and my portal still says in process.

Congrats on receiving your passport back. Looks like my wait still continues. My passport is still at IRCC since March 31 2022.
