    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Dear Yulia I have read several of your replies in the past to other enquiries. Thanks for replying. Your suggestion to send it to Ottawa is fine but that would mean sending the passports from the US. Surely that would flag as a problem somewhere. I can't imagine the Americans wouldnt...

    I really need some help - its murky Since the flurry of NDVO activity and PCC and medicals and RPRF all were done in 2016 August - we now have a repeat request for the medicals.

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    I have to imagine, New Delhi has decided to do them all together, hence the delay after the summer optimism from last year. Anyway, as long as the New Delhi Visa Office applicants continue to touch base, there is some assurance/shared misery in knowing its not an individual problem.

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Last June there was a flurry of activity from NDVO regarding PCC and RPRF requests and we all got excited. Since then silence... Does anyone know or heard of an update as to what's going on? It seems that other VO's are issuing landing papers but not New Delhi... Can anyone else...

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Still all quiet after the encouraging flurry of activity from NDVO in June... It must have been a false dawn.

    HI and congrats ABD12345.. You allude to the visa being issued by New Delhi, that's encouraging for us who are also waiting. Can I ask you, where are your parents now? As in how did they submit the passports to New Delhi?

    Tips for 2016 (Future) PGP Applicants

    Hi Tilikun, I sympathise with you.. Tough luck. I suspect your best bet is to scramble and gather everything for 2017 submission. It's frustrating to read the posts nowadays.. Some people are getting their COPR, for others like me its all silence. In June, there was a spate of requests for...
