Hi. Did you apply under express entry??

I also sent passports for myself and my accompanying family members on 26 April 2016. It was received on 28 April 2016 in Pretoria. These went sent thro' DHL by my immigration consultant and a prepaid return envelope/packet was also enclosed. The return tracker has not been activated though. I was told I should be getting the passports within 2 weeks of reception. I just hope it does not take much longer.

kitty_T, please keep me updated. Thanks.

Thanks for your reply kitty_T.

My return tracker has been activated yesterday. Passports are due to arrive by end of business hours tomorrow. I am planning to book my ticket in the third week of June. Will be landing alone for the time being and family would join me at a later stage. Still not clear where to settle but it has to be Toronto for now and thereafter, I shall make a sound decision.

Hope a speedy reception of your passport. I can say that 2-3 weeks is the normal time for passport to reach back to you after sending.

Am into IT and I shall be doing additional courses (bridging program and/or specialised IT certifications) over there. In that way, I hope I will have more chances to join a job within my field as early as possible.

From what I have gathered, Toronto seems to be good for IT.
