Hmmm, in that case you may try to call London vo and try to talk, or may be drop a follow up email stating that your PPR would expire.

I have already sent a gentle reminder with cc to cpc Ottawa. And there is no option to call them. I only received an automated reply of the receipt of my mail.

Wow that’s great to know! Thank you for replying

How long did NDVO take to return your passport?

Hii, Need urgent help...
I applied for my Wife's SOWP from India and yesterday she got PPR from Delhi VO but she is currently in UAE. So, how can I contact Delhi VO for the change of passport submission location to UAE?

I received my PPR email yesterday. I am currently residing in US with an Indian Passport. The assigned VO office is Ottawa, ON.

Yesterday i sent them an email after reading on the posts here about Mailing Indian passport via mail is prohibited (as stated on passport). I simply asked them if it was okay for me to courier my passport or i will need a VO change. (IT was more of a question than a VO change request)

Would anyone advice me as to how to proceed next ? (looks like it takes them 10ish days to get back, and it sounds awful)

Is it okay to courier my Indian passport to Ottawa ?
or should i wait for their response? (i am also not sure if they will revert back with a change in VO right away or a simple acknowledgment which might further add delays if i have to get back to them.)

Plenty of Indian citizens in the US have successfully sent their passports to Ottawa office and got them back.

Hey thanks for the link mate! thats helpful.

Another quick question,
Since this is international shipping, do i need to ask the Shipping person to print additional documentation and put it in the envelope to make sure it goes thru customs without issues ? (I read something about invoices on other forums, what should this invoice say? and what is it for? )

If you plan to visit a carrier store, the staff will take care of the custom papers for you. I don't think invoice is a must as I didnt have any.

I got PPR mail on Saturday morning but the VO mentioned was Singapore as I was in Malaysia while submitting the application now I am back in India which I updated cic through webform before returning to and get the confirmation too but still got the mail for VO Singapore, now I have mailed Ottawa CIC about VO change to Delhi for stamping on saturday itself, by when I expect the new mail from them or should i call them or any other process for it as my countdown for 30 days has already started from 4th. I also called VFS india they asked me to drop a mail at Delhi immigration, I also did that, is there anything else i need to do, shall i write to singapore vo also?

Guys, i just received a confirmation from NY VAC after i submitted my docs after receiving PPR email from CIC 2 weeks ago.

I am a little confused with the visa type listed in this email (PVT),
What is a PVT type visa? I was expecting to see something like a COPR/PR etc.
