Can any one in this forum advise in my situation.
I am for 0213 Buffalo. My timelines are in my signature.
I have not yet received my 2nd AOR, it is 4 months now and never heard from them.
My e-cas still shows Centralized Intake Office Sydney (CIO-S) Eligibility Review Complete .
I have not received any thing either my mail also.

In the month of June, I had sent them some updates in my main application and since then the status changed from "application received" to the one mentioned above. They returned the updated documents and mentioned that once the processing file number is assigned then I can send these documents.

Hi Professional 1 and others,

Then I am gonna send RPRF, but I was wondering how I can send it along with my medicals? Coz, medicals will be posted by the DMP directly.
Again, Do you think I sould send a cover letter along with my medical stating that my wife is doing her medical seperately from my native country and she will send her result separetely?

If you would like to send such a letter, it is up to you, no harm of sending it. You do not send the RPRF along with medicals. RPRF is to be sent to the visa office directly by you, and the medicals are to be sent by the DMP directly to Ottawa.

Hey Pasi, long time no see, hope you are doing well.

Just out of curiousity i am wondering why didn't you receive the PR card yet since you landed on Aug 13, you should have received by now ?

The other thing i would like to ask about is how are you going to enter canada without the PR card because the COPR has a notice in it says "Not valid for travel", and the immigration officer told me not to leave canada before i get the PR card, to be able to get in again ?

I do not think you can extend the deadline, the visa office will put the responsibility on you because it should have been expected by you that the PPR might come at any moment, therefore, you should have managed this matter long time ago before the PPR.

For me, i do not see any available solution for your problem except getting your wife's passport sent by any friend or relative coming from your country to the States.

You are right. I was told that we need to get travel document to see if we dont have the PR card. I read through the guide for getting the travel document. It was mentioned that the purpose of the travel document is to show the proof of our status to the transportation company who would be taking us to Canada (flight, train, bus or ship). So I had a doubt and posted this question in the forum and Qorax replied saying if we are driving we dont need the travel document and the COPR would suffice.

Call DHL or FEDex, they do carry passport internationally.

I read some where in this forum that DHL will carry passport from India to the USA (I am assuming your home country as India). If your home country is not India, then it depends on your country's rules. In any case I suggest you to get your spouse's passport through a friend travelling to the USA. I also read in this form that, one has sent the passport via a friend to the UK, and his friend has couriored it to the USA.

All the best!!

Oh, I see. It actually makes sense.
