Hey everyone !
I have applied for PRTD on 19th March 2021 , I have only got an automatically generated acknowledge of Receipt email , nothing else till now . I want to inquire the status of my application , although I haven't received any kind of reference number or application number , how can I inquire ? Can I forward my PRTD application email that I sent to IRCC.COVIDPRTD-TVRPCOVID.IRCC@cic.gc.ca to delhi immigration office email , asking for status ?
Note : I have applied on H&C Ground .
Office are closed. H&C applications take many months to process. Once you receive AOR you don’t hear anything for many months. There is no timeline for H&C applications and due to covid there will be further delays.

Thanks for your prompt response , I have noticed that many people are getting PRTD on H&C Ground , in 1-2 months during the pandemic , maybe this type of fast process is done due to the online applications as compared to the earlier physical applications.
Also I have seen that a person was provided PRTD Approval within a week in June 2020 .
I just want to know that how can I inquire my status for PRTD on H&C , is forwarding my application to delhi immigration office a good idea ?
Really appreciate your time .
Thanks in advance !

Hey there, I recently received my CoPR and now going to apply for PRTD in next week.
Can anyone please tell me about a couple of things
1. Can i apply via email because vfs is not responding quickly ? (IRCC website says apply online if VFS's are closed) I don't know if it different applying on website or via email.
2. When should i submit my passport?
3. Do i have to make an appointment for biometrics? I already did for PR application in Canada in November 2020
4. How long it is gonna take? (To get my passport back with PRTD)

I'm going to India (Punjab) on April 15 and have return ticket for June 14.
5. Is it enough time to get it done?
Hi Amita,
Please confirm if you got the prtd? I somehow dont get notifications on Canadavisa, is it possible to respond to me over email on hemassss@gmail.com? Thanks!!

PRTD approval in weeks is not H&C. I have seen H&C applications take 6+ months. Given shut downs in India the system is likely not processing requests. There is no way to check processing of PRTD h&C applications. As long as you know it's been received all you can do is wait.

Hi All,

I got passport request today for my PRTD application submitted on 12th April.
I do not see any information regarding VFS webform or payment link to pay for the 2-way courier service to pickup the passport.

Any help on the next steps to send the passport to VFS?

Thanks

Hi,

Can you share the contents of the email you got? Just wondering if there are any visa foil deferral program initiated by CIC on account of closures in India.

For appeal process your friend should find an ICCRC affiliated immigration professional.

@legalfalcon , @caipsnotes - Could you please advise here?

Here is the link to find one : https://secure.iccrc-crcic.ca/search/EN

Incredibly rare and some urgent travel was considered. If you look at all the other PRTD applications based on H&C they waited for months. I have seen many wait over 6 months.
