Hello,
My mom is staying in Canada as a visitor (now: implied status) , so when I apply for her PGP (PR) now, do they process it in Canada or in her home country ?

Maybe you have your spouse as a co signer and did not provide the marriage certificate.

I have a friend in the same situation as yours. They process the application in Ottawa and it was like a flash. Her mom is now holding a PR status in Canada.

try calling CIC and find out what happen... if they mail you something but you don't receive within 6 weeks, you can request another copy or e-version.

A few questions guys and gals

1) My father's middle name seems truncated in the letters that we receive. The form has the complete name as it appears on the passport. Should I let them know or is it because of character limitations that a part of his middle name gets cut?

2) My father renewed his passport a couple of months ago and his application is based on the older passport. Do I need to inform them about the change?

3) Also he lived in another country for about 2 years almost 50 years ago. Will we need a PCC from that country?

They would ask you for PCC from which country . also about passport they will ask you for a new passport at the time of the passposrt request.

my file is row#33. Decision made and passport request for visa on 03-04-2019.

Do you know if My mom travels in person to Ankara she can get her visa/passport in one day and get back?
Hi @shadih,

There are travel agencies in Tehran who takes the passport for visa pickup. Sometimes the passports are not getting ready within couple of days, so having a fixed return ticket is a bit tricky

If you search online you can find the agencies, I am not sure if I am allowed to give the names of the agencies in the forum. I did the same for my parents visitor visa pickup

Please note I have no affiliation with the agencies and I don't know them personally. I just used their service before

Thanks, @sarasarasara . My mom is a resident of Switzerland, and she is there at the moment. There is not any VAC in Switzerland, so I thought maybe easier to go to Ankara for one day and get back, If one day doesn't work, she needs to give her passport to any other European VAC I believe.

ohhhh,
I see, I did not notice your LVO. Yours is Ottawa. Let us know who you resolve it later. Just out of curiosity
