Can you please help me to understand some wording in GCMS:

We have passed Eligibility, Criminality, Medical. Empty fields are Security, HIRV (human rights violation stuff), Org Crime.

Paper file location: HPT - Hold for PPT. Why they put it on hold?

Also, Application status 2 says TFR eligibility is open. What does it mean?

This refers to your application for permanent residence in Canada. Following the closure of the Immigration Section in Damascus, your application is now being processed in Ankara. Please submit the following documents:

· Original valid passports for you and each accompanying family member.
· 2 recent photographs (35 mm x 45 mm, white background) for you and each accompanying family member.
· Height and eye colour in writing for you and each accompanying family member.
If a visa is issued, it will expire on ( Medical Expiry Date ) or on the expiry date of your passport whichever date comes first. You must arrive in Canada on or before this date, it cannot be extended or renewed. This letter is not a guarantee that a visa will be issued.

Each person must have their own passport, including minor children. Each passport must have at least two empty pages. Ordinary passports are the only type of passport into which a permanent resident visa may be inserted. Diplomatic, official, special or other similar types of passports are not acceptable. Passports must be valid beyond your planned date of arrival in Canada. Any passport changes after the visas are printed will result in a Replacement of an Immigration Document charge ($30.00 CAD) for each visa that needs to be reprinted.

Your passports must be received no later than 30 days from the date of this letter. Failure to provide the requested documents within the given timeframe could result in the refusal of your application.


If the validity date of your visa will be shorter than two months, we recommend that you submit your passport in-person to our office in Ankara (instructions below). This will allow us to return your passport faster and will give you more time to travel to Canada.

Usually, if you came in person, they issue a visa the same day but no guarantee for that.

Seniors, who received visas!
How long did it take for Ankara to stamp the visa on your passports? Excluding transportation time.

Hi guys

You can have your passport sent to Ankara by another person who obviously has your permission n meets the requirement (An agency maybe? - read details in the letter they sent you) OR you can go in person (I believe the drop off dates are Mondays and Wednesdays) - however you cannot mail your passport - Regardless of how you get your passport to Ankara, the Visa will be issued the next day at 2pm along with COPR. thats how it was for us :)

Hi shabnam

your situation is exactly like how mine was...don't worry. it usually takes 6 or 7 months after landing fee for ppr. And if you haven't heard anything about medical expiration..its prob bcz they will extend it for you. VO is allowed to extend your medical 15 months after your original medical date. you will prob not hear anything from them untill your ppr. so dnt stress. its perfectly normal.
