Hi guys, last Friday, we got the passport request letter for my husband. This was 1 week after mine COPR letter. I got the letter on my Gckey account and on my email from the Mexican Office. They requested him to sent his passport and two pictures to the closest VAC office to complete the process and give him a Visa. Our VAC office in Caracas, Venezuela is opened. We have to pay courier fees, the VAC service transmission fees, and sent over the VAC consent form + Passport, Pictures to Mexico Office. Each process is different, but see here below my process summary for your reference:
-OINP sent out on 11-July-2018 - Paper based application
-Received in August, 2018 and linked to my account
-Medical exam requested for both of us on May, 2019
-Estimated final decision date: 11-Feb-2020
-Real final decision on Principal applicant 13-Nov-2020 and passport request for outland husband 20-Nov-20
One of my friend got his PR for the whole family last Friday, after 2 years, so I think they are clearing off backlogs. I wish you guys best of luck,
Have a nice day.
