So similar situation but they sent the email to my husband in srilanka asking for more documents from me and copy of his id card and he went in person to colombo vo and handed in. But ru the sponosor? So same like that u can ask ur wife/husband to submit its the safe way to do it

Hi thara@,

My wife received the exact same request via letter mail just 2 weeks earlier, she submitted them through registered post from Jaffna to Colombo (kollupittiya). The exact address would be given on the letter/email request. Dont worry, your husband will have 30 days to submit these docs from the date they sent the request. By the way, a lot of folks on this forum who started their sponsorship applications in Nov-Dec, also received similar requests in July-Aug. This to me means that their applications are nearing completion and are being finalized to get visa. So congrats to you and your hubby, he can expect PPR soon. When did CIC receive your application? Ours was received by CIC in April 29, and we got this request in mid August.

Hi Kankan, Where did your wife hear/see this? Was this news on any of the Sri Lankan medias? I think I am going to write a letter to the immigration minister and all the media here. We need to expose this news to everyone here. People like us wait for soo long with the fear of being rejected and these people get money and issue visa to the wrong people.

Vijay hasn't been here for a while.. I wonder if he got the PPR request. Anyone else got a PPR request. I hope the officer who is currently working in Colombo quit or fired I don't think she/he is doing a good job LOL
