Hope the PPR trail starts today ;)

I think most of you that have their BG started will most definitely get your PPR in the next week or two :)

What do we need to do after PPR?

Send in the passports or copies, if you are from a visa exempt country, 2 photographs and a copy of the PPR letter. You will receive your passport back with the COPR and you are ready to land.

I think for outland processed at Ottawa there is another step after PPR which is of changing to your local VO. It seems that the PPR is generic with instructions to send to ottawa. For most outland this doesn't make sense and they have to request a change to local VO which takes around 2-3 weeks on average.

Not sure why they can't send the local VO PPR to begin with. All the details are in the application in terms of address to determine which office is appropriate.

My thought exactly. This even increases their work load. I reckon it would lot easier for all parties if the PPR mail included a clause which permits outland guys to send their passports to the nearest LVO. The LVOs may just need to verify from a central database before issuing the COPR.

Yeah you are right, outlanders do have this extra step if the PPR is issued from Ottawa. Really hope CIC improves the process in the future, so all of us can get PPR from our local VOs.
 
I have become OCD about checking my application/email over the last 2 weeks. LOL

I always thought you'd have to still change it to VO and send copies to the VO, not Ottawa....?
