Thanks! No, we haven't heard yet. It gives us hope though that 3 people have had passport requests today and it seems one of them was just a week ahead of us regarding most steps of the process. We're very happy for everyone, what a great day!

For the people that already sent the passport to immigration.

My husband and I have 1 questions.
Did you guys send Two recent photographs of the sponsored and sponsor as well? Or just of the sponsored person?

They asked in the email when requesting the passport for the height and Eye Colour details for the sponsor and sponsored person. Did you guys also send from both? and How did you send the details? Just wrote down in a paper and attached in the same envelop together w picture/passport?

I heard you don't need to send pictures and height/ eye color details from the sponsor... I'm just trying to confirm :)

Thanks a lot!!!

We hope so too! Here is our timeline:

Application received in Mississauga - May 4
Sponsor Approval - May 20
Transfer to SP VO - June 9
Request for extra documents - July 5 (BR police certificate and medical results, but the medical results we had already sent June 10 and they had misplaced them until sometime in July)

I've been in contact with the SP visa office a few times via email regarding our address change here in Brazil and other enquiries and they have been responsive. Since we linked our online application to the myCIC account on September 9th there haven't been any online updates, though.

We hope it won't be long now!

That's wonderful news, congratulations!

Our application was sent to SP for processing on June 9, a week after yours, and the VO also asked us for extra documents on July 5, also about a week after you mentioned they asked you for documents, too. This gives us hope!

We hope the rest of the process goes smoothly for you!

well first of all congratulations!
I just went thru the entire process with my wife in Sao Paulo and she has now landed safely in Toronto.

You only need to send photos of the sponsored person (applicant) NOT the sponsor. Yes you do need to send in your height and eye colour - just right it down on a piece of paper and don't forget to include your name and UCI number as well for reference.

Don't forget to follow the instructions for the info on the back of one of the pictures - sponsored persons name and birthdate and the full address of the shop that took the photograph and the date the photo was taken.

I suggest you don't mail in your passport but rather use the service and drop it off in person and pick it up as well. Ours was ready in 3 days only.

I'm happy for you - should you have any other questions feel free to private message me

all the best,
John

Thanks a lot!!!
