    Thread For applications Through SYDNEY (AUSTRALIA) Office

    Your PPR from Sydney will have your NZ address on it. If your address changes, then yes, you definitely have to advise them. I reckon you'll have your PPR by May, but it then takes about another month to get your COPR once you've sent them the photos, etc. Sydney is your VO. Which means they'll...

    Maybe a fortnight? I never linked my app to CIC though, so wasn't exactly checking things daily or even weekly. Just got an email one day asking for a copy of my PP.

    Hey everyone, got my COPR (Confirmation of Permanent Residence) papers in the mail from Sydney last week. 10 months from when app was first received in Ottawa to now. Flying to Toronto next month. Hope you all get yours soon as well.

    Please helpppp. Copy of passport request

    I can't answer that, sorry. The fact they're asking for passport info is a very good sign, though.

    Please helpppp. Copy of passport request

    Well, if they're asking you to send the info via email, then there's no way they're expecting a hardcopy of the passport. Follow the instructions. If they need the physical passport, they'll no doubt ask for it.

    Take your papers to show the PR app is in the final stages (print ecas, etc.) They tend to be pretty lenient when they know your PR approval is imminent, apparently.

    I do have friends in Australia but given how important this document is, I'd rather not take the risk.... After many calls and emails, the good people at TNT couriers can do this from here in Wellington but you have to physically go into the branch (Jarden Mile, Ngauranga) so they can process...

    Hey guys, So I got my PPR! Stoked. Only issue that's popped up is the pre-paid self-addressed envelope from NZ-AUS-NZ. NZ Post aren't much help and say Aussie post might not accept the kiwi stamp denomination. Anyone have a option for getting round this one?
