Hi guys,
Seniors please advise me
Smoking cigrt is problem in medical test

Shouldn't be a problem. Only if you have a contagious disease, eg Tuberculosis, will they take extra precautions.

Hi everyone,i m a 2013 applicant..I wanna share this happy news with you all.A decision has been made on my application yesterday(sep2nd).Hope you guys who are waiting will get pp soon. All the best wishes..
i have a question,How many days will it take to receive the pp back ??and thro which courier/indian post.??

Congrats!

Depends on which city in India you are at. Also depends on when they mail the PP out to you, which we will never know.

I was in Mumbai and I got my passport about a week and half after the visa issue date. It's delivered through Registered Post.

Visa issue date is the date on your visa in the passport. Decision made date is the date you see a change in your online ECAS status. They may or may not be the same.

The stamping will be before or on the same day you see the online change.

Ppl who have gotten dm and pp back recently, did you get any other confirmation of permanent residence letter along with it( 2 copies-- one client, one for CIC). Where are we to submit the CIC copy?

We saw DM on August 19th and he got his passport back on August 22nd. he lives in Hyderabad and it arrived by speed post. His visa issue date was August 14th, so I think the DM is more around the time they send the passport. You should get your passport back this week sometime. Or have you already received it?

Agreed! I would have ordered GCMS notes within 6 months especially if no PPR yet. Many people here who have not received PPR found out once they ordered GCMS notes that they actually missed their PPR email/letter or they didn't get it.
