Submitted passport to VFS auckland on 14 august, was tranferred to VFS Sydney on 15 august, update on CIC account approved status: 7/09/2018.
Hey Jasmine,

How long did it took you to get your passport stamped? As I submitted my passport at VFS Auckland as well on 17th Sept. But the status only shows it's at Sydney VAC. I called them and they are saying processing time is between 3days to 3months. By the way I am the Secondary applicant & My wife is the main applicant. She got her passport stamped 10days back from NDVo. By the way our visa office is NDVO and I am based in New Zealand

But the status only shows it's at Sydney VAC. I called them and they are saying processing time is between 3days to 3months. By the way I am the Secondary applicant & My wife is the main applicant.

Not sure how you missed the part where they give you a slip and ask if you want a courier delivery or pick up.
Anyway it's just a 2-3 day wait mate... Don't bring the sky down for that!

Hey guys is there a separate Passport request letter for main applicant and the secondary applicant or it's all in one letter?
As we received our PPR on 8th Sept but there is no mention of passport request for secondary applicant which is me. My wife sent her passport to NDVO and got it stamped with in 10dasy as she is based in India. I am based in Newzealand so submitted my passport through VFS NZ but it's been almost 3weeks but still the status shows passport is processed at VAC Sydney, Australia.
And also is there a time frame for stamping ?
