Try to fax them buddy and follow up. But in our case they replied after a few days. I sent an email to cpc-ctd-ottawa on Oct 1 to change local visa office of my spouse and child coz they are in the philippines. And on Oct 5 they sent another ppr letter in my cic account for my dependents. Good luck. Hope u will get it asap. ;)
Thank you for the advice. Do you happen to have their fax number?

Can someone tell me , with the new ppr from local visa office, is my passport photo copy required in colour or black and white? And I received appendix b updated information form, do I complete this in pen?
Also my photo specs are different to first ppr , no mention of photographer name just my name and application number on both photos..

It can take CPC Ottawa 20 working days to respond to requests to change visa office, which is 4 weeks. I got mine in about 9 working days

I saw that on the auto-reply email but I haven't seen a case in this forum waiting for that long (20 business days) yet. And by the end of next week my 30 days deadline will be up :/. That's what worries me!

I guess I don't have much to do rather than wait though...

Which visa office are you? When you receive new ppr you will get a new deadline, i got a new 30 days to submit. Also my first ppr was in my email inbox however my lvo ppr was in mycic messages

Why don't you send another email? Maybe they missed the email you sent or it was accidentally deleted, you never know. You should also send a fax.

Hello Anya,
First, congratulations on your DM! PPR shall follow soon :).

I sent a second email to Ottawa on thursday last week and also sent one to my local visa office. I did noy get the auto reply email i got the first time from Ottawa but I did get one from my LVO. The only thing I haven't done is send the fax... I am on a business trip now and returning to my home country next week. That is why is critical for me to know sooner rather than later what the LVO requirements are because as of right now and based on my current submission deadline I will only have 4-5 days to submt my passport upon returning home... Frustraring!!

Thanks. This is very strange though. Which is your LVO if you don't mind me asking?

Of course not! According to CIC it should be Mexico. I am from the Dominican Republic.

Strange indeed!

Hi everyone,

Thanks for sharing your stories, I have found useful information here.
I can share my timeline :
PPR Received Oct 13th
Mail sent to CTC Oct 14th (explaining them I live in France)

waiting... Should be two weeks or so, given what I've read on the forum.
Fingers crossed !
