Hi everyone, update here. My mother just got her passport request today, July 25, after nearly 3 years. Her address listed is in Brazil but she's currently visiting me here. Luckily the letter specified that we should contact them by webform to do virtual landing if she was currently in Canada.

I think this means the landing will be pretty soon, right?

Please update @robertp @YULIA-2016 :) Decision made on My Application July 26, 2022

Oh, interesting. Mine says



If you are currently in Canada, you are not required to submit your passport and will be landed virtually. Please advise our office via webform within 5 days of receipt of this letter if you and/or any of your dependents are in Canada.

Better to speak with an IRCC agent before sending passport to Ottawa. In the last two years, Ottawa has been returning passports without visa stamps.

Please can any one from Pakistan share experience of getting appointment for medical test from IOM. I have emailed them on 22nd july but no reply yet. Do they only answer if email received in working hours? Thanks for your input
They replied to me after 4 days so you will see something soon. Also, try to call them during business hours as you may be able to get an appointment faster this way. Good luck!

The letter explicitly says if you are currently and planning to be in Canada for next 3 months , you may send the passport to ottawa alongwith the letter . The letter head says islamabad visa section though . Dont think IRCC agent can help ... does someone has the passport return ?
