I'm also interested in this, although we may prefer dealing directly with vfs Accra when PPR comes.

Hello,

I got this same message on the 6th of April. VFS Lagos dispatched our passports on the 1st of April. From my webchat with VFS Lagos after getting this same message, I was told our passports were still in transit. So my conclusion, it was either the message was sent in error or it doesn't make a meaning because I got a mail that our passports got to VFS Ghana on the 19th of April and got to IRCC on the 20th of April when they started to process it.

When did send your passports and when did VFS dispatch your passports?

How much is the courier fees to send my processed passport from VFS Lagos to the USA?

I received a ready for collection email showing a courier fee of 15,120 Naira. I sent VFS an email, they forwarded the same presaved message of 15,120 Naira to me.

Is that the standard courier fee to send passport from VFS Lagos to the USA? Or to other locations outside Africa?

Congratulations.

Please share your timeline from submission
My time line is one of the most ridiculous outliers: 5years!!!

My application for PR was submited March 2017!

Did interview June/July 2018 in Accra.
Then there was no feedback/ response for 2 years: 2019 and 2020.

Response came again in Mid 2021.
Did medical and Poilice Report again between Mid 2021 to Dec 2021.

Passport received at VFS Lagos: 21 Feb.
Passport at IRCC March 4th
Passport ready for Collection April 22nd.

It was a rollercoaster with a happy ending for me.
