Pipis Husband, thanks for the very detailed landing story that can pass as a emigration & Landing Template.

I sent my passports to AVO last Friday through DHL and have confirmed their delivery to and receipt by AVO before 9am this morning.

That was pretty fast - looks like AVO has raised the ante.

I got the PPR on June 11, 2015

Sent the passports on June 12, 2015

Passports got to AVO on June 15, 2015

AVO sent pick-up email on June 19, 2015

However, e-CAS is yet to be updated and it is still reading "IN PROCESS".

I pray that AVO will use the same tempo to process all other pending applications in Jesus name. AMEN!!!

Hello House,

Congrats to everyone with various positive updates from AVO. I have been a silent member of this forum since 2014 when my PR application processing started with CIO. This forum has been very useful for me in tracking my application. Like most people, i got my PPR was on June 16th but I have a bit of a dilemma which the I need the house and especially much-man and onenigeria who have been in a similar situation to help with.

the issue is as follows, as usual; AVO gave 15 days from June 16th for submission of my family Passports but because of some back to back business foreign trips which I have already scheduled, I will not be able to send the Passports to them till around the week of 13th July. Based on this, I immediately replied AVO on the same email (ACCRAIMMIGRATION @ INTERNATIONAL.GC.CA) which was used to issue the PPR mail requesting for an extension of the 15 days to about 33 days (telling them that my passports will get to them latest by July 17th). Now that request was sent on June 17th less than 24 hrs from the receipt of the PPR mail of June 16th. As to today is June 19th I'm yet to receive confirmation of the extension request from AVO. I only got an auto reply stating that my mail is been reviewed and if need be they will reply.



Now my questions are:

1) To like of much-man and onenigeria who have gotten Passport submission extension from AVO, how did you contact AVO? Was through CSE or an email to the ACCRAIMMIGRATION @ INTERNATIONL.GC.CA.

2) How long does it take to get a confirmation of the approval of the extension?

3) wondering if I should raise CSE instead of just replying the PPR mail.

I also attached evident of my tickets to the mail I sent.

Kindly advise on the steps, really considering raising a CSE not sure if the email option is faster.

Thanks all for your contribution.
A CSE holds more water than the mail you sent. Quickly raise a CSE and provide the necessary information for an effective feedback from AVO. They tend to treat cases of people they just sent MR and PPR to, more than other. Congratulations on the request!
