Once you get your PPR, it would clearly state what documents you need to submit, to where, and by what date. So do ensure you follow those. In my case and for a lot of other applicants here, the following documents had to be submitted to the consulate:

1) PPR notification that you received
2) RPRF Fee of CAD 490 or USD 490 as Bank Draft/MO/Certified Check
3) Passport if you are from country that requires Visa to enter Canada, else a copy of Passport should suffice
4) 2 Photos as per PR specifications
5) Height and Eye Colour written on a piece of paper

Hi garry27,

yes, they will return 2nd photo and that will be used by officer at border while you do landing formaties and he will attach that on your copy of COPR

no worries

thanks

My passport was received in Detroit on November 26. I'm hoping to get it back in the next 2-3 weeks. I'll update my timeline here if it helps others.
My eCAS shows Decision Made today. Hopefully my tracking number will become active soon. Does anyone know what the average timeline is between Decision Made in eCAS and receiving the passport?

Hi Onap,

saw your timeline, how did you get your passport back in 3 days? i sent mine today via expressport. and if you dont mind where are you located? just trying to figure out here how to get passports back in such a short period of time.

Thank,
Chamybel

I'd guess ONAP went in person to Detroit and got the visa stamped on the same day. :)

I went in person to Detroit and received my Visa and COPR. I'm now in my home country and intend to land sometimes early next year.

Guess the turn around from Detroit is quite quick these days, so hope you get it your visa and COPR quick and your landing goes smooth!
