I received PPR and this is the email they sent me from Ottawa:
The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps
within 30 days in order for our office to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and, if applicable, permanent residence visa. If for any reason you are not able to meet this deadline, please inform us
immediately by email to:
CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca with details concerning your situation.
STEP 1: UPDATE YOUR APPLICATION
If any of the following conditions apply, you must inform us immediately via email
CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca.
· Marriage or common-law union, divorce, annulment, legal separation;
· Death of the sponsor, the principal applicant or any accompanying family member;
· Birth or adoption of a child, including grandchildren born to dependent children;
· You, the principal applicant, or any of your family members have been charged or convicted of a criminal offence.
STEP 2: DETERMINE IF YOU NEED TO SUBMIT YOUR PASSPORT(S)
· Determine if you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa or an Electronic Travel Authorization (eTA) to travel to Canada, by checking this website:
http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/visit/visas-all.asp.
·
If you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada, you will need to submit the
passport for you and for each accompanying family member. Your passport(s) should be valid for
at least 6 months and have at least
two blank pages. If a child is included on your passport, you must have
one blank page per accompanying child. Please note that you STILL need to submit the passport even if:
o
You have a valid Canadian temporary residence visa.
o
You are a permanent resident of the U.S.A AND holder of passport from countries whose citizens need a visa to travel to Canada.
·
If you are holder of passport(s) from countries whose citizens need an eTA to travel to Canada or a holder of passport(s) from the United States, you will need to submit one photocopy of the photo page and any pages containing amendments of the passport for you and for each accompanying family member.
Please do not send your original passport(s). Your passport(s) should be valid for
at least 6 months.
Please note that these instructions apply to passport holders from Mexico as well, who, as of December 1, 2016 , do not require a visa to enter Canada.
***Please note that Confirmation of Permanent Residence and permanent residence visas cannot be issued to holders of Diplomatic, Official or Military passports. You must have an ordinary passport.***
