We submitted the passports on 25 Nov at the Lahore office and received today at 11 Dec by FedEX.
Was it fedex in real or was it through leopard courier service? Did you get any tracking number of FedEx by any chance?

Hello All,

How long do we have to wait to receive our stamped passport? I submitted mine on March 18th at Lahore VFS and it’s been under process at the IRCC since March 24th. Since it’s been over 2 weeks, I just want know how long it’s been taking lately?

Thank you!

Oh wow 3 days? My PPR letter says submission at the visa office in Islamabad. I submitted at the VFS office just today. The staff there said it takes 2 weeks. Let's see how long it takes.

Not going next month, but ticket prices are around 170k one way last I checked. Also, please update when you receive your stamped passport back from VFS. I submitted on the 11th. Waiting for it to be returned.

I submitted passport on 23 May, 2022 at VFS Karachi and received a bunch of emails same day. Next day, received this notification: "Your application XXXXXXXXX has been received and is under process at the IRCC Office on Tue May 24 2022" Not sure what the next notifications are like, the web chat today updated that the application is lying with Canadian High Commission and the processing timing depends on the working of immigration office. The normal processing time is 2-4 weeks.
We can just wait I guess.
