No I didn’t upload any documents online.

All looks good. Just take the originals along with the copies. Additionally, if you are married, you will also need marriage certificate. I had to take a photograph at BLS as the agent said it did not match the specifications (although it did as per instructions provided).

Just got notification, the cancelled passport is also on its way. Has been picked up by Purolator by BLS.

Only the Visa came in today. Seems like the surrender certificate will take its own sweet time. Hope this helps.

yeah, i am pleasantly surprised myself with the processing time.

No, BLS site does not provide any details. I provided status available on PassportSeva after logging in. Purolator picked up today, so should receive it soon and confirm what has been returned back. I am not sure if they have shipped the cancelled Indian passport along with the Entry Visa.

Just an update, bls status changed to “in transit from consulate” Jan 12. passport surrender status changed on Jan 12 to “surrender certificate has been printed”.

Applied for entry visa on Jan 10th at BLS Vancouver. Both passport surrender and entry visa applications were submitted at the same time. I had originally intended to apply for Tourist Visa but was told Entry Visa is faster and tourist visas are taking longer.

Hi Animesh, My status is also changed to "Recommended by department". what happened in your case? I am just wondering what does this "status" update mean?

Finally received the passport back from Ottawa on October 5, 2017; close to 3 weeks lead time. We will most likely be flag poling to complete the landing process.

Yes!

First of all congratulations. The rules state that you should be in Canada when you sponsor your spouse. Based on your response, that is the case and you are not planning to move out of Canada during the rest of the year. Do not over think and I would suggest to chose either of the two route...

that makes no sense to me. you should have included her in the application as a dependent. now it would just take another 8-12 months to sponsor her. I hope you at least included her in the application as "a dependent who is not accompanying you". Otherwise, things may become complicated. Best...

Same here. Interesting that we all have the exact same date for SA.

If all is good in the forms, the "in process" change in ECAS and a transfer email should be sent out within 3-5 business days. At least that is my timeline.
