Yarla7bh,

In most cases, the DMPs send by Fedex or other courier services and also give you the tracking #. From the day the medical is done, the average time to send the results is about 5-7 business days. Did u request your DMP as to how they sent it?

USH1B
Thanks for your reply USH1B, I have not asked them the tracking number, i guess i should call them tomorrow to get it.

Hi All,

Wish you a great festive season. I am in India on a vacation - a friend just updated me that my passport request came in the mail....the letter is dated 16th December.

I remember last talking about the NY Office running short on issuing visas (quotas) and hoped i would get the request only next year or towards end of this year and it happened just around Christmas - wonderful gift for me!!


I wish all a Happy and Joyful Christmas and a wonderful New Year!!

Hey Anil, I'm sorry that I'm one of the members who were for the NY quota and insisted that we won't receive the PPR until next year, now you got it ;). Congrats man, I hope that I will receive the same thing next week...

You don't need to post on every thread, I just commented on the other one. I guess this thread is more relevant for you.

Guys, no questions this time. I have a great news to share..... :D

I got the Passport request today from LA office by e-mail. I thought they are not gonna send new PPR before the end of 2010. But, surprisingly I got it!!!

I know Zang submitted his passport to LA office last October and they returned it to him and asked to resubmit it next year.

I applied for PR on Nov 30, 2009; submitted full docs on May 05, 2010 and got PPR on Dec 14, 2010. I did everything by myself with the help of you guys. Thank you all.... I appreciate your help friends.
Congratulations dude...I have been in the waiting line with you guys it seems they are taking a lot off time hope everything works out fine
anyway happy life in canada

I have started a new thread..but considering overwhelming popularity of this thread here's the repost:

Factors affecting timeline:

1. Existing backlog (What about pre-Nov 2008 applications)?
2. New applications (Pre-June26 2009 applications) ?
3. Ultra new applications (Post- June 2009 applications)--


Applications received toward the overall cap: 5,551 of 20,000 as of December 22, 2010

Post June, CIO, Sydney does initial screening and then it gets to visa office.


Out of these how many are for Buffalo? Safe bet

4. No of FSW2 workers for Buffalo==Unknown??

5. No of Immigration Officers
