1. E-mail them and request for an extended deadline, like say you want to push it back another month for this reason.
2. No, they mean your accompanying family members who want to immigrate.
Thank you cantaloupe for your response

Guys, thank God i have received passport request today 7/Apr

However, i have 2 concerns that i need your opinion for:

1) I have 1 month to submit my passports, however, my wife has an exam on 8/May and for that she will need her passport as an ID. (No other piece of ID will be accepted from her). So, what do you recommend ? Shall i send the passports to the visa officer with an accompanying letter explaining that i need the passports before 8/May or just send him an e-mail expressing my concerns ?

2) In the email it is mentioned that i should send the passports for me and for each accompanying family member. My son is a Canadian citizen. So, do i have to submit his passport as well ?

My timeline is as follows:

App submitted: 15/8
PER: 22/12
MR request : 29/1

Congrats and +1 to you. You can call them and ask them if extension is possible. If not, send the passports ASAP with a cover letter explaining your situation along with evidence and ask them if it is possible to issue the visa faster.

Hi Congrats!!
I think u should be fine to get back ur passport before 8th May. I have seen most of ppl r getting back their passports in 2/3 weeks. I myself is waiting and this is my 3rd week. Regarding sending ur Son's passport, I am pretty positive u don't need to send his passport since that is canadian passport and require no Visa on it. However, I would e-mail CIC to confirm that since you also need ur passport urgent so u can't afford any delay. If u r lucky sometime CIC replies very quickly.
Good Luck.

Yah my status has been updated to Decision Made, all the four lines has appeared. Its been more than 15 days now since i have sent the passports but i think its normal. Usually it takes 2/3 weeks.

Hi All,

Its been over a month since my medical result was sent to CIC and still no update on my ECAS. Is this normal? Some of my friends have theirs uploaded after 2 weeks.
