Send your passport to a family memeber or friend with a letter stating that you are authorizing that person to represent you.
You should be okay.
Cheers,

Thank you, beauhoe! Hopefully, I will get a chance to visit Detroit before the end of July. Again, congratulations on your success in the application. May you a new blessing life in Canada!

Wish you all the best my friend.
Cheers,

Congrats beauhoe. Are you planning to settle in Toronto or somewhere else?

BuffaloApp, send your passport through someone. If anyone is visiting from India to US / Canada, you can ask someone to carry it for you. Once your passport is in Canada/US, you can ask your relatives/friends (if you know anyone here) to send the passport for you.

Thank you my friend... My first contact with Canada was in Toronto back to 2006. Toronto was also the place where I firstly fall in love with Canada; however, I am going to be in Montreal because of my potential job location (McGill University). Hopefully I will have the chance to visit Toronto again.
Cheers,

Guys, one more question. When I took my appointment from the DMP, I specifically asked if we need to come on a fasting stomach and was said "No". Now, I have had a previous bad experience where the medical representative had said no need to fast and when we reached there, the doctor said we needed to fast. Though that one was not for Canada medicals. But, still can anyone who has undergone medicals, let me know, if we need to fast or not.

No worries, this time your DMP is right eat whatever you want and drink a lot of water you will be okay my friend.
Cheers,

beauhoe and Pasi, Thanks a lot for clearing up my confusion ;D I believe now we should start maintaining a count of how many members of this thread have crossed the finish line and how many are close to cross it. That will help in arranging the face to face parties that Mark had earlier suggested So, guys, how many are done?

 

[garian4u]

Ok, let me take some initiative
1. me2land Done
2. beauhoe Done
3. Pasi Passport Request
4. Honolulu Passport Request
5. Professional1 Medical Request
6. MarkCan Medical Request
7. garian4u Medical Request
8. anjay Medical Request

Someone will need to validate this list and add more. I went by memory and could have made mistakes.

Could you please provide some information on whether the eCAS status changes when you receive the medical request ? RIght now its hsowing "In Process" since May 20th. GIven the status for other applications, I am hoping that my medical request should come out soon. Please suggest.

Thanks my friend.. My timelines are exactly like yours and I am constantly checking my mailbox to check if the request for medicals have come through. If not, I will try to contact the Buffalo office to find out the status. In fact I took the job transfer with my company and am in Canada now. DO you think I can call the Canada helpline number and enquire about the status. Any suggestions ?

BTW.. Also happy for all of you who have waited for so long and finally getting your PRs. All the best to all of you..

anyone knows whether it is possible to show up at Buffalo CIC for the visa stamp without PPR letter?
They sent my PPR to a wrong email address and I really don't want to wait longer as i need to meet some deadlines.
