Hi everyone. August 1st applicant here. I did my upfront medical 2 weeks ago in Vancouver but have have since left the country as my status as a worker expired and I wasn't eligible for another work permit. I just received my medical request today and my understanding in the PPR will be next in line. My question is, as I am currently not in Canada how am I going to get my passport stamped for visa when requested. I'm travelling around south east Asia at the minute but I am an Irish citizen. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys

There is nothing to be worried about visa stamp if you are outside Canada. CIC will send you an email for Passport submission. You can just follow the instructions in the email. Following is a small part of the email I got from CIC for visa stamp. Hope it would help you to understand.

If you do not have a mailing address in Canada or the U.S.A, please send an email to us at CPC-CTD-Ottawa@cic.gc.ca so that we can send you instructions for submitting your documents to a visa office which is the most convenient for you.

I'm an August 25 applicant.

I finally received RPRF request on April 20.

How long does it take to get PPR and CoPR from RPRF?

You're Irish, this is a visa exempt country, so you won't need to send your passport for visa.
They may ask you to confirm your address, and you will receive your copr by mail.
All the best

In my case after medical they took around 4 weeks although for few guys it was just 2 weeks.

You never know about CIC.

As per my GCMS notes after medical my file was pulled three times in 4 weeks before I got PPR email. I think some senior VO checks for final decision before sending PPR email.

Hope for the best, it will come.

Hi! ;)


I received RPRF request in March 10 2016. But I aready paid it on December 2015. The letter from CIC said that I passed the eligibility but GCM notes in March 16 2016 has blank in the area of eligibility.

In this case, was my eligibility passed or not?

Does Anybody have an idea?
 
Yay! Passports and COPR were in our mailbox! ;D :D

I had requested the delivery with signature but they dropped it at the mailbox anyways. I'm glad it was the correct mail slot.

Good luck to everyone else.
