Hello Everyone,

Iam facing a similar problem. CIC gave me 60 days and now I am left with 40 days to send my passport for Canadian Immigration Visa. I am residing in Pakistan and my passport is with me. I cannot send the passport legally to anywhere accross border and I have to send it to Ottawa. I e-mailed CIC regarding that and ask that as to what should I do

I informed them to please email me back as to what should I do but yet there is no reply.

Shall I get a visit visa and go there. But the time period provided is super short and visit visa will take a lot of time (79 days or so). Can I get extension for the time before which I should submit my passport. Will the CIC extend it beyond 60 days??? I am in deep trouble and no time , please help

Regards,

Usman Tahir

Hi Usman,

First of all Congratulations to you on your success. So, coming to the point, I had come across with somebody like your case. There is an applicant in November 2012 group. He is living in Canada and his wife lives in India. So, when he got his PPR, he had contacted CPP-Ottawa. So, luckily CPP-Ottawa asked him to get his wife's visa stamped in India itself. It was like exceptional and he was so lucky. So, why don't you do the same? Just ask CPP-Ottawa if you can get your PR visa stamped in Islamabad. You just do not depend on the email reply from them, but you can try calling them at the same time. I don't know exactly whether we can call them, but just Google for their number and try. Or just post here if somebody has the contact number.

All the best my friend.

Thanks,
Sarayu.

so far i know foreign ministry gives the authorization to send the passport to other countries if the applicants can show PR request letter from other countries. i am talking about my country. we go to foreign ministry, get the authorization showing approval PR letter and send it to foreign countries such as canada.

Usman,

Talk to FIA immigration section, I think if you show them PPR from ottawa, they will give you a written letter that will allow to send your passports.

Let me know about your update.

foreign ministry in India? How to reach foreign ministry office with this kind of question?
Both myself and my wife are living in India now, and our applications are being processed in Ottawa. We have done our medicals, and we are anticipating our PPR in couple more weeks. Worst thing would be when CPP-O instructs us to submit the passports in Ottawa office. I don't have any valid visa now to enter Canada.

thanks del018.
I will wait and see until I have my PPR. I guess now CPP-O is giving 60 days after PPR to turn in the passports in their office.

What are the chances that I would be instructed by Ottawa to submit my passport at New Delhi? When I did my medicals (in India), I mentioned Indian address as current address. But, on ECAS I have a Canadian address which I am unable to change.

You can courier Passports via DHL, it is the most reliable - I did mine through them...and it was delivered safely.

Hi donwin4real...

Please did you send your passport from within Canada to Ghana, and how long did it take to get back to you. Please, I need your clarification because I'm almost at that stage.
Thank you!

I sent my family's Passports via Dhl from Nigeria to Accra embassy with took 2days to deliver; it took a week to endorse the Passports with the visas and another 3days to get it delivered back to our home in Nigeria which I arranged for a pickup with Dhl.

I know of a family that sent their Passports to Accra embassy all the way from the USA using Fedex! It was a bit delayed though but it got delivered successfully to them all the same.

If you want to courier your Passports from anywhere in the world, try Dhl, as I had a wonderful experience with them....this is my 2 cents!
