Hi guys,
I rushed and sent off my photocopy of my passport, and have just realised it asks for the ammendment pages also.
If your ammendment pages are empty do you still need to send a copy in?
Has anyone sent just the photo page of their passport and still recieced COPR??
Thanks
You only need to include the amendment pages if they contain amendments

Congratulations!!!! From trends I've seen on other posts, usually should only take a few days for passport request.
Usually if you received the pre-arrival letter, the eligibility is already determined. The only time I can see anything being turned down is withthe background check. But if that all checks out, you have no problems.

Mine in Singapore VO and after passing the medical at 07-01-2018 nothing after that, it might take 2-3 months more I guess.
Singapore office eh? I've heard that one is pretty good. But who knows with these things. Every case is different so it seems impossible to judge or gauge what kind of timeframe one could be looking at. I am not expecting my wife to get PPR, have it returned to her and land in Canada until at least June. Hopefully that's not the case and she's here in April. Once she's approved, if she's approved and following completion of some departure course required by the Philippines, she will be on the next available flight to YVR.

What I said is based on the info and the trends of consolidated timeline
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dJsaLvHra4173xPfRwZbXo73hsxoXaLSJ5-tcm7qnJI/htmlview#

If you check it by yourself you will understand. Yes every case is different but not every visa office's work speed is same.

Yes that is true. I check the spreadsheet often and you are right some VO's are ridiculously slow compared to others.

Manila VO. Thank you!
Same here :)

You're very welcome! My spouse is through Manila VO as well. Just keep checking your online account regularly. I'm sure the PPR is coming for you!
