Hi,

Asking for a friend who is not in the forum and recently his parents received COPR

I am filling out the passport submission form on the VFS India site for my parents. They opted for the Premium Privilege Lounge, and the receipt they received has an Application Number on it. However, there is also an Application Number from IRCC.

Does anyone know which application number should be entered on the VFS form—the one from the Premium Lounge receipt or the IRCC Application Number?

Thanks in advance for your help!

Hi All,
I applied for my parents' visa and my father is the primary applicant. I got the passport submission letter on my dad's name. However, when I try to book an appointment with VFS, the system asks me to upload passport requisition letter for "each applicant". Does that mean that I have to wait for my mom's letter separately or they can submit the passport for both of them? It would be great help if someone can provide some guidance on that.
IRCC only sends in the letters under the PA name. Just upload the same letter for your mother too.
How long did it take you to get the passport request from your last update? Was your last update the police request or medical?

My parents medical was passed on Nov 5th 2024. There is no movement in the application. Please advise.
Mississauga office is processing it.
In my case, it took 2 months after the medicals when they requested PCC. Hopefully yours will be sooner.

If there is only one field with limit characters, I would write IRCC application #. However, if the field allows, I would write both with () referencing IRCC and premium lounge etc.
