    VFS Center India not responding for Passport Submission 2-Way Courier Service

    I too am a PR (Express Entry) applicant. Passport is with IRCC now; reached on 23 Dec 2020. Had been collected from me on 17 Dec by courier (Blue Dart). I suppose now the actual wait begins. At least the passport is now with them. Shows up on the VFS Tracking System as well.

    CIO stands for Centralized Intake Office. It's in Sydney, Nova Scotia and yes, that is your primary visa office. Expect your PPR to come form that office itself.

    So. This evening, at approximately 2041 Hrs I received the poorly formatted email we all have been waiting for all this time. 843 days. That's how long the wait was from A0R to PPR. The real journey begins now. Thanks to you all; being on this form has helped me maintain my sanity over this...

    PPR delays due to covid-19

    I have a minor correction to add to this. It was not "RFV Mission", rather in the heading "Notes" which comes right at the end of the file, by the time one has grown tired of the preceding 130 pages. There it is written "RFV letter sent via email in a batch. No correspondence was generated as...

    PPR delays due to covid-19

    I think your interpretation is spot on. Have a look again at your GCMS notes and you will find a mention of "RFV Mission" somewhere. In my case, it is clearly mentioned there that a mail was initiated to the client (me) through Microsoft Word and that due to the same there was no log created on...

    GCMS notes say PR approved in January, but no COPR/PPR letters or communication from IRCC

    I fear we all face the very real situation of limbo.. As of now, international travel for "non-essential" purposes is not happening, and the way I see it, till that changes we are going to be waiting. The truly sad part of it is that we stand to suffer at the hands of inept leadership as they...

    PPR delays due to covid-19

    I ordered my CBSA notes through getGCMS. CBSA notes and GCMS notes are different. You should order CBSA notes in case you suspect that you are under Security Screening. Turn around time for CBSA notes is approximately 40 days through the website. The actual time taken by CIC is 30 days and the...

    GCMS notes say PR approved in January, but no COPR/PPR letters or communication from IRCC

    I contacted CIC in May (medicals were expiring) and they said its still in progress. I came to know from a second set of CBSA notes that my application was approved on 01 Oct 2019. Even a visa number (upper and lower line details) were mentioned and also the authorizations document. Last thing...

    PPR delays due to covid-19

    Just to clarify some aspects which may help. As I had my CBSA notes, I was aware that my application was stuck at the CIO in Sydney Nova Scotia. Therefore, when I raised a webform query (not through the account, but through this link...

    PPR delays due to covid-19

    Your assumption is quite right. I am ex-military from a regressive third world country and that is most likely the reason I was placed in security screening. Fortunately I served for just five years as a pilot have never been involved in any questionable operations and so my security screening...
