I just got an update email from IRCC confirming that they have successfully received my document (RPRF receipt)
I was able to upload and transmit it directly on MyCIC (or GCKey). Haven’t received a confirmation of receipt by e-mail yet.
What was the ADR about?
It was for a certificate. I paid my RPRF upfront with my application. For those who haven’t paid it upfront I imagine there are two ways that the RPRF request comes. One is fairly early in the process with a note that says “in order to continue processing your application” and one is relatively late or mid-way through the process where it says “in order to make a decision”. We’ll see what happens. Currently just speculation.
In my case I didn’t wait for them to request it. As soon as I was able to pay it, I did. Then I called and gave the agent the receipt numbers. That is faster than just submitting by webform because u join the web form queue.
yep, good news! You should expect an approval email within a week or two. Whitelist "cic.gc.ca" domain over your email to make sure if they sent RFV email, you'll get it in your inbox and not spam.
Thank you, that’s great! Can I ask if there is anything I should prepare for these emails that I need to send back?
you'll get all the instructions in the email itself and the list is pretty simple. They "usually" ask for photos in specified dimensions, info(eye color, height, full name, etc), passport. In addition, you'll have to add one/two VFS forms in the package too. You can search the forum(or even Google images) to see what the email usually looks like. You can also get a PPR letter in GCKey instead as well (you'll get an email notification about a message in GCKey).
Inconsistency between what agents share isn't uncommon. There are different interpretation of notes for each agent. I strongly recommend people to not obsess over these things, keep a check on your tracker and enjoy the time.
