Oh well, I hope it goes all smooth for you. Best of luck :) and congrats again...

I ordered CAIPS notes and it mentions something like "No CSC date because there is not bio-data on pictures" and its dated April 2013 when application was sent. I am not sure what it means.

Is anyone familiar with this term?

You can order CAIPS notes online these days .. Its basically information on file, for e.g. when docs were rec'd, file was created, file was transferred, and few more things. It doesnt give you a whole lot but you get basic idea of file and when it was processed. I ordered it to confirm the receipt of few docs i sent after i received AOR.

Hi All,
Just wondered if any of you experienced with the ppr could help. We've been in processing since June 24th and he's due to come back here in August for a wedding. Once we get the ppr I'd like to act quick, so hopefully everything can be done during the visit. Its just tough and expensive to go back and forth so much.
So I see when you get the Passport request they ask for "appendix B". Is that available online somewhere or does someone have a copy they have received? Is there anything else that they ask for? Ideally could someone who has received this email copy and paste the info in so I can see and have it all ready to go the day it arrives.
Thanks so much for your help!!

They ask for Your passport, Appendix B and 4 more photos if your application has been longer than 6months, because they require max 6months old photo. Hope I didn't confuse you. So for me, I didn't want to send my passport since I am travelling. So I emailed Sydney immigration and they informed me that since my passport is Australian, I can photocopy every page of my passport and send that instead. Appendix B, is very easy to fill out, takes 2seconds. They send you a PDF attachment of the letter and requirements.

I posted mine last week through UPS, Sydney immigration haven't replied or responded. I'm hoping I will hear some good news this week or next week. Eagerly waiting.
