if by chance you are abroad and travelling and receive ppr email, can you submit passport in that country or you have to come back to your residence and submit over there?

No
I don’t have any hope left now
Prabha .. pls order gcms notes - the only way to tell the detailed info on the app movement .. something i regret not ordering on time once i crossed 6 months..
Wait for a month to get the notes... Something good should happen during that one month wait .. Hang in there ..
Think about the candidates who applied last year feb 2018- june 2018 .. that is a long wait.. And some of them started getting ppr this week.

So we all are in the same boat - in the mercy of ircc immigration processing.. So hang in there and do what can be done right now

True...
Old applications are gradually gaining momentum... Our turn will also come very soon.
@prabha... Time has come that you should order GCMS notes now... They will help you with detailed info... & There is no harm in ordering them.
& Stay positive guys... Things will turn in to our favour very soon.

This was the language of my approval/ information letter
The letter states the following:
The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is now complete. You must complete the following steps within 7 days in order for your Confirmation of Permanent Residence to be issued.
The Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship (IRCC) office responsible for issuing you a Confirmation of Permanent Residence will contact you shortly to arrange an appointment for your landing.

STEP 1: UPDATE YOUR APPLICATION
If any of the following conditions apply, you must inform us immediately via e-mail to: CIC-OTTAWA-IMMIGRATION@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: CONFIRM YOUR PLACE OF RESIDENCE
If you and all family members included in the application are in Canada, you are not required to submit your passports or apply for an authorization to enter the country. The IRCC office responsible for issuing your Confirmation of Permanent Residence will contact you to make an appointment to finalize your application. If you and/or your family members are NOT currently residing in Canada, you need to advise us of your current place of residence as this may impact the issuing procedures of your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and/or visa. Please advise us immediately by e-mail to: CIC-OTTAWA-IMMIGRATION@cic.gc.ca
***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.***

STEP 3: PREPARE YOUR DOCUMENTS
When you receive communication from the responsible IRCC office for your appointment, please make sure to bring the following documents:
1. Original Passport(s) for all people included in the application.
2. Two (2) photos of yourself and of each accompanying family member. See our specifications at: www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/pdf/5445EB-e.pdf

I recieved a similar email - the only difference is that it said it is almost complete but to mail the same documents. It's been almost two weeks but I havent recieved any updated correspondence from them on it.

Can anyone tell me whats the expected processing time after submitting the documents requested from this email below?I submitted my documents the day after I received the email two weeks ago. I haven't recieved anything back yet?

"I received an email today saying that The processing of your application for permanent residence in Canada is almost complete. You must complete the following steps within 30 days in order to issue your Confirmation of Permanent Residence and, if applicable, permanent residence visa."

we had applied under FSW-inland.

--> AOR: October 07, 2018
--> Medical passed: November 07, 2018
--> After that, there was no update. Still, it was not showing any update online.
--> I called them in April and they said that your file was in Sydney but now it is transferred to Montreal (because of heavy volume).
--> ordered GCMS on 31 May 2019 but still haven't received.

On 11th July, I called them to ask about any update on file and they said everything is approved (it was approved on 09 July 2019) and said you will receive an email soon.

And finally, today I received an email. :)
Congrats!!

I can’t tell how badly I have been waiting to write those two words. Today at 3:17 AM, I got the Final Request email. Thank you everyone for the courage to bear with such long time. I wish those waiting for PPR good luck, you will get your PPR soon.
My timeline:
FSW- India
AOR: 9th October
IP2: 1 March
No update until today :)
I had RR for siblings relationship, didn’t provide any additional documents, neither they asked.
My last contact was with cpc- ottawa on 18th july, they told same old story of file under processing!
So keep you hopes high. You will get it soon. Or it could be just around the corner.
Good Luck Everyone. :D

I ordered gcms once at the end of 6 months and one on 13th june which I didn’t receive
Background hasn’t started yet, eligibility met..its same since jan
No change no movement
In 5 days, i’ll have to take some decisions that’s gonna change everything. It’s really disheartening
Thanks to ircc and my poor luck
