    PR Application Files Transferred from Buffalo ----> Los Angeles VO from Sep 2011

    I sent mine via UPS and it worked just fine. Fill out your return address on the prepaid envelope. My local UPS store let me pay for both the outbound and return shipping which is a requirement stated by LA visa office. Anything other than a prepaid envelope will not be used so please don't use...

    Finally! Congratulations and I wish you all the best with your landing. Did they use your FedEx envelope in the end?

    Hi, I sent my passport 20/01 and it arrived back to me in Toronto 10/02, so exactly three weeks. Don't use FedEx when sending your passport. I sent via UPS and enclosed a prepaid UPS envelope and it went fine.

    Interesting, looks like they didn't want to use FedEx for some reason. Best of luck with your landing!

    I wonder if they didn't want to send your documents back via FedEx and instead send them back by registered mail? That would explain why you are not seeing any activity. When I was choosing which carrier to go with, FedEx confused me with the need to write a credit card number on the label, set...

    Passport arrived along with my COPR. One point to note, they did not put a visa in my passport as I'm from a visa exempt country. I got a shock at first but once I read the letter from the consulate it all made sense.

    My guess is that your tracking number will go live tonight! Mine didn't show up until about 8PM EST.

    Done. FYI, I think your calculation for passport turnaround time needs to be reversed. Should be SUM(J-I) :) FYI, passport took three weeks from the day it was delivered to LA to today.

    LA are moving pretty quickly these days so you should be in the same situation pretty soon. Wishing you all the best with your application and thanks for maintaining the tracker - it has been very useful. I did add one or two dates to my case on your spreadsheet, hope that's ok.

    Just touching base, skFSW. No activity on my return envelope today. I guess you were correct and we will get our passports next week.

    Bonny, Your DMP can give you a tracking number for the UPS/FedEx package they sent to Ottawa. Would be a good idea to give them a call.

    Really not sure on that one. I asked my bank and they said it would take a few days to check the status so I never bothered. I'm assuming they cashed it before changing the status though.
