I sent my PP to Ottawa using Purolator with xpresspost envelope inside it..

I wrote my address on the xpresspost envelope

Is that correct procedure?

Does that mean you don't have to do landing formality? I was under impression that COPR is received once you land , no?

BTW, waiting for PP to come back. Received at Ottawa on 28th Oct.

Received my PPR recently.

CIC say passports should be sent with Canada Post Xpresspost prepaid envelopes, but is there anything wrong with using Canada Post Priority prepaid envelopes? I need my passport back as soon as humanly possible, and Priority is a faster service than Xpresspost.

If you are near Ottawa( Ontario ), Priority wont make any difference and Sending/Receiving will not take time anyways , its CIC who will decide how much it would take to stamp the visa , so to me using priority wont make any difference.

I'm on the other side of Canada, in Northern BC. So returning by Canada Post Priority prepaid will probably help get it back quicker. As long as CIC is not fussy about it being something other than Xpresspost.
