Does bank draft amount exclude courier pickup + drop off charges, since that seems to be a separate online card payment. So draft would be for a single total amount of $129.40 (surrender fee + consular fee + BLS service fee) in favor of "BLS International Services Canada Inc."? Also, for family...

Hi Prash, That is correct. You only need to submit the original latest Indian passport with your surrender application and it will be returned to you after cancellation. For courier fee, I paid around $130 for my single application that included all the pickup and drop-offs of my OCI and Indian...

That is correct. I went to one near me in Toronto around 6:45 am and there were 8 people before me even at that time so I said nope and chose the courier.

Thank you so much!

Hi all, just received my OCI today. Been lurking here to get some of the information for my application and it's been really helpful. My journey ends here after going through countless applications for different documents on the way! Application Sent to BLS (Purolator) : November 2, 2021...

Just an update: Landed on 17th September at Rainbow bridge, Niagara and received PR card on the 21st October. Well, that escalated quickly! All the best to those who are waiting.

That's one great piece of advice right there! +1 for the effort bro. Cheers!

PPR - 17 Aug PP sent - 19 Aug PP Received at Ottawa - 22 Aug Application approved - 31 Aug CoPR and PP return - 12 September Cheers!

I had the same situation and due to my lack of experience with mailing prepaid envelopes, I did the same and forgot to take note of my return tracking number. I was opening my mail every day in the hope of my PP until yesterday when it actually came in and you're right it did feel like a present...

Visa was printed on the 24th and i forgot to take my return tracking number so couldn't tell if it's activated or not.

Got my CoPR just right now! Yay! And good luck to everyone waiting for theirs. PP request - 17 Aug PP at Ottawa - 22 Aug Application approved and closed - 31 Aug CoPR - 12 Sep Thanks for all the help guys ! Keep up the good work.

Thanks!

Do we get a e-mail notification when the tracker is activated or you check manually ? Either way I forgot to take my tracker number so just making sure lol

Mine was approved on 31st and still nothing :/.

Don't worry it would still take normal processing time unless you served in some bureaucratic or military organization. I was requested to submit my schedule A and received my PPR right before 6 months mark. All the best !

Your Express Post return envelope will be activated once your application gets approved and closed in CIC. It is pretty normal and usual practice for CIC to send a "Ready for Visa" email and then take some time to approve the application and send the passport and CoPR back . Everything is fine...

I have the same timeline. Did you see any updates on cic or heard anything about your passport yet ?

You have to enter the degree and diploma separately. In your case, enter bachelors degree in one tab with details and in another select two or more degree or diplomas so the system will pick up both and you will be awarded points for both. I was in the same situation when I applied for mine...

Re: Passport tracking ? I did the same but only thing I missed was the tracking number for my return Xpresspost envelope. But anyways good luck to you and hope we both get our PP soon. Have a good one!

Thanks man! That was my first time sending a mail. I know it sounds weird but lessons learned.
