Congratulations! What are the size specifications for the digital photo and signature/thumb impression images? I too am applying for my child, and have come across at least 3 types of specifications on different sources.

What is counterfoil message?

Regarding our AWB situation, we received it the very next day of payment (not sure if paying for Premium Lounge service had anything to do with it) . But I too just went through a whole 2 weeks of absolutely no response from VFS's 2-way courier system. When I would call VFS helpline, the only...

Hi! Thanks for your response! Sorry, when you say current address, do you mean their non-serviceable address??

Can anyone confirm this?? I thought Passport Transmission letter is the PPR received from IRCC.

I do have one more question. Under that section, this is written; "I give my consent to the Canada Visa Application Centre in _______________ (City, Country) to receive/give my documents from/to _____________ " What needs to be filled here in the first blank? Is it the city where they provided...

Thank you so much for this clarification!

Hi there! Thanks for your response.. I was going through a few YT videos, and everyone is stating that this section in the Consent Form seems to be if someone else is submitting their "application", not the passport! Did you mean COURIER/SMS form by any chance, and not CONSENT form.?

My parents are having their passports picked at an alternate address in the next few days, since their own address is non-serviceable. QUESTION: Do they need to fill the details under the section "Consent for Indirect Submission and/or Collection" in the Consent Form since someone else will be...

Thank you! Yes, I m aware of that. I wanted to know if they need any letter authorizing the people living at the alternate address to handover the passports on my parents' behalf.

For all those who used an alternate address for passport pick up- how does one go about it without being present? My parents' address is not serviceable, hence they are using a different address. But they cant be present there from 9-5pm. Should they leave an attested letter or something like...

Good to know. Thanks!

Thanks for the update! I m still waiting to hear back from them. Did your parents' passport get picked up within 30 days of the PPR letter validity period?

Similar (but not quite!) situation. Paid for passport pick up and courier for my parents' visa. Even received the AWB number, but got an email AFTER saying that address is not serviceable. It has been 12 days and no response from VFS at all! I spend every night (EST) calling the India office...

I hope someone (ANYONE) can help me out here! My parents have applied for a visitor visa in July 2021, and have submitted their Biometrics on Sep 2nd 2021. Within the next few days, everything seemed to go very quick. PPR came the next day, followed by payment link for the courier charges. I...

Hi! May I ask what was the reason for you to reapply? At what stage was your parent's application at? I too had applied in July 20th for my parents' visitor visa. Biometrics submitted on 2nd Sept. They also received their Passport Pick up Request (PPR) letter. And they are currently dealing...

Hi there! I know this is an old post, but I could really use your help! I too am in the same boat as OP. I am applying for a visitor visa for my parents. They submitted their biometric in VFS Bangalore. They were coaxed into paying for the Premium Lounge service (3000 per head), and were...

What is the point of PL other than fleecing vulnerable applicants? My parents who applied for their visitor visa, were told that their visa process would be expedited on purchase of the so called premium lounge service! (3050 INR per person). What's even more sketchy is that this payment is only...
