Folks - can someone who sent the PP to VO pls clarify this for me?
When you get a PPR and you have two passports (one expired and one active), do you need to send both the passports to VO? Or just the valid current passport will do?

well - if your application has arrived on the 16th of April, as your timeline indicates, then you should be hearing from them very soon!
Good luck - waiting is hard, but the approval will come!
cheers,
Sweden
