No no! The instructions clearly state that: "FOR PERSON RESIDING IN SINGAPORE: Submit you passport(s) in person to the address aove. Our reception desk is open Mon-Fri from 0830 - 0930 hrs. You will be given an official receipt acknowledging that we have received a package from you. You will...

Hi smirky, I'm not so sure for the SOP for submission via mail -> personal pick-up. I'm sure the PPR gives you specific options (delivery/pick-up) should you be applying from overseas or from Singapore itself. Maybe you could email them to ask. I know if you reside in Singapore, they would...

I suggest you wait. Myorzg submitted her husband's passport when requested. Then asked for it back a couple of weeks after submitting cos he had to travel. Then had to submit it again. If you can avoid travelling while they hold your passport, pls do. I was assured by immigration that they put...

Not for everyone. Mind you, I waited 7 weeks for mine even though I handed it in in person. I'm a Singaporean living in Singapore and it would be much easier to issue my Visa since it's easier to do a background check on me. Still, total process from application took 17 months to the issuance of...

Thanks, Shiny88! I hope you get yours soon as well! Nothing should keep a family apart!

No, it didn't cross my mind to ask them. I think they are handing out PPRs and passports because there were quite a lot of people in the queue that morning. I hope you get some good news soon too!

On Wednesday, 20 Feb 2013 @ 1645hrs, I received a phonecall. It was from Canadian High Comm saying that my passport and COPR is ready for collection! I collected it from the office the very next morning and am resigning from my job today! Took them 7 weeks to hold my passport. sheesh. Don't...

Well, even with passport request it might be another long wait. I re-did my medical that came with a PPR and it's been 6 weeks since I handed in my passport. No phonecall yet. I emailed SVO and they said it's only pending my medical. The delay is in Manila RMO. I have no idea what could be...

Dude, your wife got her Passport back the next day? Immediately after submission? How is that possible?

I was able to log in to ECAS previously until yesterday and today. Hope they are updating it!

Congrats! I got the same medical request too!

Hi Phil and congratulations on having one of the shortest waiting times! 7 months to PPR is pretty awesome! Anyway, are you sure that you cannot enter Canada without getting your medicals done? I'm pretty sure that issuing a Visa would mean that your wife is medically sound because the Visa...

Exactly 4 weeks since I personally handed in my Passport to Canadian High Commission Singapore. It's 1245pm now. Another 4 hours to expect a call. So much for "Please allow 2 weeks to process your visa". Been keeping us in suspense every single day since the "2 weeks" passed. This can't be...

Thanks, goodman36! I hope so too! ;)

MOYRZG I had no idea you could personally head down to ask for a status update. Do you think it might be a different timeline as you've applied through FSW1? Was your medical a request to re-med then send in your docs with your passport?

Hi everyone! I have some questions for those who have already landed in Canada: 1) How long did it take for you to receive your VISA after you submit your passport? 2) Did you have to do a re-medical when you got your PPR? I'm just trying to gauge how long it would take to have a "Decision...

Yea, my mistake. 4th Jan 2013. ︻┳═一 >:(

Hi blessedelaine! I have experience requesting a Singapore police clearance but, from within Singapore. My sister, whilst in Australia, applied for a Singapore Police Clearance from Australia (counts as outside Singapore, right?). From what I gather from the SPF website, they mentioned...

Hi Bluenoser. When you say you're NOT allowed to submit in person, were you going directly to the Singapore VO? Were you based in Singapore?
