I sent mine through Canada Post Xpresspost to the courier address (not PO). Someone still signed and received my package.

Just for your information.

Guys, send it to the "courier" address if you need confirmation it was accepted. If you send it to a PO box, it's just going to go to a box with no signature of receipt. That's the only difference.
Courier goes to an actual address with people there to sign and collect, the other goes to the PO box location.

Don't give people the exact opposite advice that CIC gives applicants.

Don't give such bad advice. Do you physically know that that's the difference? CIC made specific instructions for a reason. I don't know why you and others on here became experts beyond CIC's own instructions. And then when things go wrong people complain.

I did the same. Someone signed it and it was scanned and uploaded to Canadapost's website because I availed the signature add-on.

The intention was to comfort people. That was not an advise. That was simply sharing my own experience on what happened to what I did 5 days ago.

Don't talk nonsense if you don't even know what courier is. What was the specific instruction that cic gave that disproves what I said?
When cic says send by Canada post to a po box, obviously there will be no receipt signature because it's not delivered to a person, it's delivered to a PO BOX. Do you know what a PO box is? Courier includes xpress post, dhl, FedEx etc, anything that is different from regular mail features I.e speed, signature, tracking etc. Canada post is the only one that delivers regular mail in Canada. Cic will not send it back to you courier except by xpress post.
Now, if you don't know stuff, then watch your mouth and don't come here talking nonsense.

In the PPR Email it says that in very specific words. So I'm not talking nonsense, Learn to read before you start talking trash. And courier means anything that's not canada post. If you reply with a smart answer again, I'll scan the email from CIC to shut you up.
