Hello Friends,
Just wanted to give you guys heads up, so that its helpful for you.
It has happened with me so just giving heads up to you guys

If you parents in are back home, and once you have received the Passport submission request, you need to book an appointment for that on: https://visa.vfsglobal.com/ind/en/can/news/latest-updates

Tricky thing where i made a mistake. On website of VFS it says that you have book appointment for each member accompanying along ~ maybe i miss read it, because when we book for biometric we book for each person, one for father and one for mother, separate

But this is not the case when you are booking for submitting the Passport, If you have got ONE LETTER for both (Father and mother) for submitting the passport, then when you are booking appointment, please select 2 persons in drop down, i made a mistake and i selected 1, thinking that i have to book for each, separate, and then when you enter same application number for other person, it says that this application number has already booked an appointment.

so select 2 persons and then it asks you the name of the both (father and mother).
Example: If you applied Father as main applicant and your mother is as dependent, then select 2.


Sending this so you guys do not have to go through this. Now, i have to wait till that one person's appointment gets expired, (as we can not cancel it). Then as per system you have to wait 3 calendar days to book new one.

I have submitted via email and webform both. Email was way faster than webform.

They asked for proof of payment of biometrics fee for my dad, even the letter instructed webform submission but I submitted via both.

I got the BIL the next day so email works

Has anyone heard from Vancouver office after Sponsor approval Letter ?
Mississauga seems to be working and processing applications fast. On the other hand, looks like Vancouver office still hasnt recovered from Covid days.. so frustrating.
