FSW 2014 - CPC OTTAWA - Visa Office - Let's Connect Here

[North Pole]

Dear All i really need your help urgently
i am in Egypt, i need to send passports to Ottawa today
i will send them to CPC via DHL
I am planning to send a return prepaid label via DHL TO RETURN PASSPORT TO MY FRIEND IN VANCOUVER
Is it Ok ??? do i need to send passports to my friend first and he send them from Vancouver ???
should i buy i return label via Canadapost not DHL ???
I AM REALLY CONFUSED NEED URGENT HELP

Dear ihsmina, I am in similar situation. Yet i decided to send the passports to my relative in Canada and then he will buy the return labels and then send to Ottawa. I also sent an email to Canadian embassey in Cairo asking them if they can print my visa here. If they answer before i send the passports next week i will print them from Cairo. If not i will send them to my relative in Canada and he takes care of the rest.

I have not tried buying return label from Canada-post online, but i read some people had difficulty doing so with a credit card outside Canada. But not sure.

If i receive a reply from Canadian Embassy by Thursday i will let you know.

Best of luck

Dear All,

In an effort to spread the knowledge among us and to help each other take more informed decisions, I have created a survey asking about our plans for immigrations. Questions included in the survey are like, which city you plan to settle in, type of flight you’re planning to take, what will you do till you get your license (in case you job requires licensing), plus other questions that I think will be helpful to all of us.

Please note that this survey is anonymous, which means no one is going to know what answers you have given. All results are going to be analyzed and shown at an overall level (combined responses) without identification of the members participating in the survey. Also please note that there are no right or wrong answers in the survey, I am only interested in your own opinion and plans. So try to answer to the best of your knowledge.

I will leave the link active for couple of weeks, and then I will be preparing the analysis presentation and I will be sharing it again on this forum so that everyone can use the results and read about what the majority are thinking of.

One last point to note is that the survey is designed for the Principal Applicant only. It would be great if you can participate in the survey, it will take you less than 5 minutes to finish. The link is provided below:

Thanks for your help, your feedback is highly appreciated.

Regards,
Ahmed

Hi. Can you give us a step by step guide on how to make such labels from Canada Post. It would be of great help.

Thanks in advance

Are you in the US ?
If you are , police divisions have finger printing offices , for as low as 6 dollars , they will finger print you to FBI specifications . I think you even get 2 fingerprint cards for that price.

Hello All,

I just received today rejected package from FBI PCC ( poor quality of fingerprints). I applied in the Dec for fingerprints just in case CIC will ask for it. I already received request for Medical & Payment, they didn't ask for new PCC (I provided PCC with application) should I submit FBI PCC application one more time just in case CIC will ask for it or you think they will not ask for updated one since I got MR already ...

Please advise,

Grace

Yes I am in USA, I will do another finger print and will send it - just in case... it doesn't hurt to have it in file.
Thank You

I just check I have third line - Medical received - I am very happy - but still worry if all will go through fine...

Any news from CPC-O today??? hoping for good news for all

 

[MrBank]

Just go to any police station and ask for their finger print, each city will only have one fingerprinting office . You can search on Google for the city you are in.

Do I need to send RPRF pay receipt to Ottawa by post?
I have already e-mail them though.

 

[SKguy]

Guys, quick question i got and i wasn't sure how to answer. When applying for FSW can you count the experience you had while you were a full time student in Canada? something like internship/co-op experience for engineers for example

I just sent email with attachment, nothing by post. In email from them it says:

10. You must send the receipt to CPC-O. For fastest service, please attach it to an email and send it to the address CPCO-Cost-recovery.CTDO-Recouvrement-frais@cic.gc.ca

If the physician is listed as e-medical , do we need to send physical acknowledgement of medical done to CPC or scan copy with email works ?

You may send a scan to CPC-CTD email but it is not mandatory
